Dune: Part Two
i feel like i just witnessed a miracle.
Dune Part Two is the greatest Sci-Fi cinema has ever seen. Its a generational epic that may even surpass ‘The Empire Strikes Back’.
Visually, this might be the best film ever made. Every single shot is art. The special effects and CG is incredible, every piece of future tech whether its the giant spaceships or tiny props and costumes looks phenomenal and the detail is outstanding, not to mention the believability of everything in this universe.
This films writing and acting is also near flawless. Every actor in this film is amazing, Austin Butler is terrifying, and the audacity to give Florence Pugh less than 5 minutes of screen time, and her character be that compelling is unreal.
Theres so much i want to talk about. The combat and fight scenes are so well done, the guerrilla warfare aspect is extremely fun to watch, and every scene with sand worms is stupidly cool.
But by far, the strongest aspect of this film, is the religious narrative. Compared to the first film it really takes centre stage here and it works amazingly, i found myself starting to believe in the Fremen’s prophecy at times. This film is one of those masterpiece that comes around every few years, and has ascended the standards of the sci-fi genre by a million miles.
