A good movie

This movie is pretty much the stuff of legends. Indeed, even though it is probably the least regarded movie directed by David Lynch (himself always considered it a massive failure), it has now reached more or less a cult status. Anyway, it must sound surprising but I thought it was actually not bad at all. I have to admit it, the fact that  that I did read the book before watching this movie migh... read more

Un film di fantascienza non convenzionale.


A not conventional science fiction movie.

Olen kyllä aina tykännyt Dunesta miltei enemmän kuin muista scifi-klassikoista. Lynch on saanut vangittua leffaan omanlaisen tunnelman vaikkei elokuva kyllä mitään herran parhaimmistoa olekaan. 80-luvun tehosteet jaksaa naurattaa, mutta muuten se on kestänyt hyvin aikaa.

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 80’s (768 movies items)

" It is a world where sandworms 1,000 feet long guard creation's greatest treasure - the spice that prolongs life. And enables the mind to fold space and slow time. Where a prophecy will be fulfilled. And a young leader with incredible powers will emerge to command an army of five million warriors in the final battle for control of a universe and its source of ultimate power. Its surface is barren. Its true strength hidden. Its foreboding desert conceals the power to fold space, to slow time, "

"Arrakis Arrakis, also known as "Dune", and later "Rakis" after the fall of God Emperor Leto Atreides II, is a harsh desert planet located on the far edge of the Old Imperium in the Canopus star system. It later became the Imperium's center under Muad'Dib's empire. It was the original and for a long time sole source of the Spice Melange, which was vital for space travel. Why you wouldn’t want to visit: It’s hot, humid, dry, and at the brink of war for control of Spice. And also sand w"

The movie made me want to kill myself. it's surreally awful. And it is haunting me, so ... It's still very Lynch.
Kyle Ellis posted a review 1 year, 2 months ago

A failure, but a somewhat interesting one at that

“Now I didn't think Dune was completely awful, but it is rather disappointing. That said, it is a somewhat interesting failure, not in how bad or good it is but what it could have been. Starting with the good things, the production values are superb and actually elevate the film. The costume and set design are spot on, while the special effects are stunning. While Max Von Sydow and Patrick Stewart are quite weird in their roles, they are weird in a good way as they are very enjoyable here. And Francesca Annis is gorgeous.However, everything else doesn't work. First off, I didn't think David Lynch was the right director for this. Don't get me wrong, I do like Lynch and his films especially The Elephant Man and Mulholland Drive. But when I think of Lynch, I think of haunting and surrealistic,” read more

Fall 2021 Viewings (35 movies items)

"Viewing: 2nd (or 3rd) Format: Blu-ray Thoughts: After seeing Dune 2021, I naturally had to revisit the 84 version which stands as a somewhat polarizing, controversial piece that was disowned by David Lynch. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this version as much as I did, and prior to revisiting it I felt it was the inferior version of the two. But dammit I stand corrected, this version is awesome and stands alone in its unique wackyness. It's deeply rooted in 80s fantasy/sci-fi, and made me think of i"

"FORMAT: 70mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: Comes complete with David Lynch’s unaltered credit. Aside from some vertical lines that turn up in random places, most often in the middle but sometimes to the left, just one cut frame and the whole credit sequence being shifted slightly out of place, this is a visually impressive print given its age.
