POSITIVES…
It's fascinating and interesting to see all that world building in this sci-fi story. Mythology, culture, politics, customs, hierarchy, to particular ways characters communicate with each other, there are so many things that this film is juggling.
There's a majestic beauty and wonder to all the imaginative visual splendor that you get to see in this film. From the set design, the space crafts, the costumes, the locations, to the sand worm, it's just full of eye candy.
Grand and epic feeling set pieces that really showcase it’s high production value.
Swordplay choreography. Gotta love the use of blades in the choreographed action beats.
Timothée Chalamet is excellent in the leading role, and has a spectacular ensemble cast to support him, from Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac, Josh Brolin, Jason Momoa, Sharon Duncan-Brewster, Javier Bardem, Zendaya, and more!
NEGATIVES…
There's a certain denseness to the narrative that might keep you from being completely invested with all the plot threads presented to you.
So much exposition and jargon. Hope you can keep up and not get too confused with what’s going on.
Might not move fast enough for some people. This movie knows it's long and it's milking every minute it needs to tell this story.
Certain characters aren't in it as much as you'd hope they would be
This movie doesn’t hide the fact that it’s telling us an incomplete story, so the conclusion may not completely satisfy you.
