I didn’t love Part 1 when I rewatched it yesterday. Like my first watch, I thought there was too much exposition and not enough charm or personality. A hot take I know but it’s just how I felt. I did however really enjoy the mythology that was introduced and I hoped Part 2 would expand on it.
Dune Part 2 is far better and in my opinion it’s the moment in which it becomes better than Star Wars. The world building really opens up and shines. The first hour is exactly what I hoped we would see following Part 1, which is essentially a hang out movie with the Fremen as we experience their culture along with Paul. We learn more about the Harkonens, and the machinations of the Bene Gesseret witches. We learn dark secrets of the Atreides family. We see the dangers of religious fanaticism and the messianic complex. We see thrilling action sequences with pulse pounding music. This movie is awesome and I am so ready for Dune Part 3.
7/10 for Part 1
9/10 for Part 2
