Dune: Part Two (4K Ultra HD + Digital) [4K UHD]

HOLY COW--SO SO SO GOOD--WATCH IMMEDIATELY
Of course I have heard for years about the Dune novels and I have been vaguely aware of some attempts to make some films. I have never known anything about the actual plot or characters of Dune. A couple days ago I watched Dune 1 and was really taken in. What a brilliant and beautiful film with such terrific actors. It's a very dark movie, so that bummed me out some, but still really gripping. So then I started watching Dune 2 at 1 a.m. Fell asleep for a couple of hours and then finished it around 6 a.m. What an amazing movie is Dune 2! Dune 1 is terrific, and Dune 2 is about ten times better still--and not quite as dark. I love the beautiful cinematography, the powerful music, the brilliant acting, the compelling story. My favorite performance in this is maybe that of Javier Bardem--such a natural with the role as one of the Fremen leaders. And Timothee Chalamet, holy cow, what an extraordinary performance as the central figure in the film. Zendaya is awesome too, as are many others. I am aware the director had to simplify the book and take certain liberties--for my part, I think he succeeded wildly.

The Story of Forces
The future in 'Dune: Part Two' has double gynormous power to overcome solid boundaries. Fear is a navigable moody spectrum to react against in challenge entrepreneurship. Denis Villeneuve's sequel to 2021's 'Dune' is a gathering to the screen event.Paul Atreide's(Timothee Chalamet) initiation to Fedaykin soldiership and Fremen culture on the planet of Arrakis will see Paul, now called Maud'Dib(desert mouse), quell long oppression of the Arrakeen world in a preemptive corralling of doubters and believers. This rite of passage, concerning Paul Atreides inception into Fremen society as Lisan-al Gaib(Arrakeen: 'Tongue Of The Unseen'), and his mother's prophetic ascendancy, and other conflicts are imagined precipitously above regular musings. In this refined state, these human drama adventures have equivalents in the experience of gathered civilizations, and their religious identities.Chani(Zendaya) and Shishakli(Souheila Yacoub) are Fedaykin warriors who are more knowledgeable about the desert of Northern Arrakis than Paul or his mother, Lady Jessica(Rebecca Ferguson). In a conversation between Stilgar(Javier Bardem), a fundamentalist, and Paul Atreides, the importance of Lady Jessica is fraught with tension as specific details are realized about these band of guerilla fighters. They are dependent on Lady Jessica being exhalted as the new Reverend Mother. The stipulations of death in the massive desert plains of vinaigrette sunlight hues charges over Paul's innocuous figure, which remains inquisitive, silent. In colossal sizes, Paul's distant determination divinely links sonorous base melodies over descript corners of a remote society. Chani and Stilgar are fierce, judgemental, and pragmatic journeymen who compose tutorials under hard survival wisdom. Stilgar is hopeful that Paul is the Lisan al-Gaib. The laughter of Chani and Shishakli, in mockery of this religion, like a crack of emotional interjection, reverberate in a tense silence, and break-off into other dialogues around Paul's innocent gaze.Denis Villeneuve is the director of 'Dune:Part Two' , and as a co-writer with Jon Spaiths of the screenplay, the iconanism of supersize orientation provides the movie 'Dune:Part Two' with destiny revelations. Also overreaching is the achievement of stunning visual dioramas of awesome scales noted in finite graphics of small figures in front of grand edifices.'Dune:Part Two' has a Harkonnen rally where one band of a coliseum section represents thousands of black and white articulated dots. Here, the development of story plots is also large. The chants of incorporated, insensitive followers are opulent in a nihilist modern Greek world of precise chromaticism.As a Bene Gesseret, Lady Jessica is able to foresee a future Kwisatz Haderach. The Padishah Emperor(Christopher Walken), of another ruling House, along with Princess Irulan(Florence Pugh), have also, referendums based on mystical interpretations. This inspiration, to embrace a Kwisatz Haderach, or messianic saviour, is fertilized by the Reverend Mother Mohaim(Charlotte Rampling), who like Lady Jessica is from a devout society known as Bene Gesseret. Lady Jessica, as prospective Reverend Mother to Arrakis, wears a religious head ornament. Her shaded face of sharp beauty is scrolled over in black mark runics, evenly margined in straight line over her entire face, like scrolled program data. As an interest note, the large box-like head piece worn by Reverend Mother Mohaim, and later by Lady Jessica is similar to the peinetta(pay-nettah) of Spanish custom, which is a large standing haircomb covered by a mantilla or other secular lace coverings.'Dune: Part Two' profiles states of theatrical humors which, because the plight of Arrakeans and Fremen are studied under macro-cosmic energies, the cause and effect scenario runs microscopically through struggles. Great paces are tweaked subtly, and turn tragedy or victory, or morals decline then triumph again.The casting is terrific.

Great Movie! Amazon Quality Control Zero
Great movie unfortunately Amazon pickers are blind and sent me the item in what only can be described as being run over! Surly this happened in transit to me you say well the shipping box was not damaged so therefore Amazon clearly have no quality control on what they ship to their customers.

Great visuals and special effects... but the storyline is very weak on following Herbert's Vision
Enjoyable, but not as good as I had hoped. I am a fanatical follower of Frank Herbert's Dune series and I found this Part 2 of the new production somewhat lacking in details that were critically important in the original novels.This is likely due to the time and $$ constraints of production, but it was disappointing nonetheless.The first DUNE movie was OK...not great.The Science Fiction Channel's "Dune" and "Children of Dune" series, followed the books much more religiously, but the visuals and interpretations of Worms, Sietches, and Dune itself were lacking.This new series would be far better if the storyline spent more time on the development of Paul into the Kwisatch Haderach and his training of the Freemen in preparation for battling the Harkonen. The relationship with his mother, sister and Chani should have been far more detailed.Overall, it's OK..but nothing to get super excited about. Worth watching, as it is the best conception of the Sandworms and Sandworm riding, but beyond that, it's just OK. Four Stars...and that's being generous. (But then again, maybe I'm being TOO critical. I just wish it could have been better!)

Great Dune version
The movie follows the story line in a satisfying way. The acting is good and the scenery is outstanding. Easy to imagine how harsh the desert was on this planet. The leads have very strong chemistry and the fighting scenes add to moving the story line along. We will watch this again.
