Dune: Part Two - Movie Review

In Dune: The second part of the play is ‘Revenge of Paul Atreides, who joins Chani and the Freemen to fight back the those who murdered his family. Throughout his story, Paul must decide between love’s domain and the exposition of the universe’s fate; in addition to avoiding a terrible future only he can predict.

Three major topics that can be distinguished in the film are Revenge, Fate, Leadership. The tone is ambitious and intellectual, with a hint of urgency and of the terror of existence in the backdrop of a desert planet.

The leaderrecruiter is here revitalised in Timothee Chalamet who reprises his role as Paul Atreides with an embodiment of internal conflict. Zendaya as Chani and Rebecca Ferguson as Jessica provide power and substance to their characters, and Javier Bardem and Josh Brolin to their characters lend seriousness.

Every aspect of narrative building is perfectly orchestrated by the director Denis Villeneuve who manages to combine both plot and sci-Fi aesthetics into a cinematographic work of art. One has to applaud him for his ability to sustain the tension and chassis constant at the same level through out the entire big epic story that is a film adaptation.

Meanwhile, the film’s soundtrack composed by Hans Zimmer is quite moving and exciting in response to the vasterness of the movie scenery and the intense events.

’Cinematography is spectacular, dramatic landscapes of the desert of Arrakis and powerful details of the characters’ inner world.

I particularly admired the production design which vividly presents Frank Herbert’s vision as the wasted, buzz-cut world of ‘Arrakis, to the sand-blasted architecture and even the clothes that the characters wear.

The two movies have integrated special effects superbly; the sandworms are realistic as are the scenes of interstellar war.

It focuses the flow of the story and keeps it exciting, with distinct smooth swaps from one stage to another.

There is no unnecessary rush in the movie, and nothing feels forced; the plot, as well as the characters, develop at a good, steady pace and do not fail to keep the viewer engaged.

Once again the dialog is eloquent and provocative achieving the psychological turmoil of the characters and the main themes of power and destiny.

‘Still, the film can be visually appealing and contain building interesting themes some of the scenes might look too long especially to those who are not familiar with the animation.’

Dune: Part two is a science fiction movie of a tremendous impact that explains the multifaceted thesis emerged through intense casts and bodies. It is a cinema that is felt deep down, and leaves the audience with quite a charge even after the end credits.
