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.

Olen kyllÀ aina tykÀnnyt Dunesta miltei enemmÀn kuin muista scifi-klassikoista. Lynch on saanut vangittua leffaan omanlaisen tunnelman vaikkei elokuva kyllÀ mitÀÀn herran parhaimmistoa olekaan. 80-luvun tehosteet jaksaa naurattaa, mutta muuten se on kestÀnyt hyvin aikaa.

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 80’s (1441 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, "

“(MU) Voz en off y montajes secuencia disimulan pasajes cortados, pero el relato es ordenado salvo la multiplicidad de personajes y de planetas al inicio. La mugre, fealdad y perversidad de Kenneth MacMillan, el rey de los Harkonen,eslo mejor, incluida su homofilia sangrienta, Sting desperdiciado, Rambaldi tiene sus chispazos con los gusanos...” read more

Pros and Cons of Films: Vol. 1 (121 movies items)

"Pros: It’s a cheese fest, from beginning to end. The performances by ensemble cast. Kyle McLachlan The music by Toto and Brian Eno. Sting. The world building in the film. The effect work, especially the Sand Worms. Cons: It’s a very long, convoluted film. For some, it’s a movie that either was too close to original source material, or veered to far from it. If you don’t know anything about the source material, you will be absolutely lost. David Lynch. In retrospect may have t"

"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, 11 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"
