Dune 2021

2/10 too much sand.

In all seriousness, it was decent. I'm not really sure how much I enjoyed it though. I enjoyed the final act, and I was intrigued in the first act, but the middle part of the movie I did not enjoy all that much. If I had watched this movie while tired I'd have probably fallen asleep half way through. It's certainly beautiful to look at, and the sound is fantastic. But the pacing is definitely quite slow (not necessarily a bad thing) and I came away feeling as though there wasn't really all that much substance. Perhaps after watching a sequel I'll feel differently.

@ragreynolds I was only somewhat tired and can confirm I fell asleep. Seems to be made for fans of the books since all the slow-mo shots, slow pacing, etc. could only be gratifying for people experiencing their favourite book come to life on screen.
