It's the casting that carries the film. I saw Prochnow in "Wing Commander" (an obvious homage to this role) and it inspired me to watch this film again. It does honor to one of the greatest books of all time. Was this review helpful? Sign In 0 out of 0 users found this helpful Fascinating movieDune is a great movie! It can be confusing if one doesnt watch the prologue first, but the prologue does a good job of giving the necessary background for the movie. I love the way Jessica is such a strong woman...she went against the command of those in charge and gave birth to a son instead of a daughter because she loves the Duke so much. And, when questioned about her choice, she stands by it. Yet, she also is not afraid to be emotional and feminine. I think the computer graphics in this movie are excellent, especially for a movie made about twenty years ago when we didnt have the technology we have now. Dune rocks! Was this review helpful?

the possibility of spice being a psycedlic drug warping time and space is not far fetched the probabilty of a planet being exploited for it very high--love the effect this film had on my imagination.

Patrick Stewart,,, while like in Excalaber only had a relatively minor role he still carrys it off with his typical aplomb and grace. he proves that he doesn't have to be a headliner to be serious about his art. it also introduced me to kyle Mcglauclin and Richard Jordan. again both extraordinary talents in thier field that I don't think we here enough from, or were given nearly enough credit...

I just wish I could get the long Director's cut. Cause i watch Dune over and over again. AlsoSci-Fi channel, don't get me wrong I love your station, bit if you are going to remake a movie, do'nt jack it up. Your 2000 version of my movie was stank. Was this review helpful?

If you watch it only for the costumes, sets and characterizations then it actually works, but you need to have read the book recently to appreciate what David Lynch tried to do here. If you can find it, the 4 hour unedited underground copy (complete with cartoon story-boarded scenes to complete unfinished portions) is a brilliant look at what Lynch might have been able to do with more time, money and support from a studio with guts. Well worth digging around for. Was this review helpful? Sign In 1-7 of 7 Per Page | ||
