Dune: Part Two

can’t believe i havent actually written about this dune 2 is perhaps the greatest modern sci-fi movie. the visuals are really unmatched in anything else we see today, the performances are crazy, the casting is immaculate, the cinematography and score are some of the greatest of all time. the story of Paul Atreides is either a tragedy or a warning. it very likely is both. we see him overcome with the prophecy, with the general perception of him as this messiah. he takes advantage of the idea that he is the Fremen’s savior. and that’s just tragic.  now that’s not to say that it’s not moving. his speech at the climax of this film is wild. the action is exciting, the fights are visceral and real. the fight between paul and feyd-rautha at the end was super cool. zendaya as chani is moving and angry and so down to earth. every aspect of this movie just comes together. there’s not much i can say other than listing the things i like. nearly perfect, if not just perfect.
