Watched the new Dune film. Surprisingly, I have to say that it's incredibly boring, not even interesting on a visual level. And I was so sure that this would be a safe purchase. I'm not sure how the excellent Blade Runner 2049 tanked yet Dune was so successful amongst critics and audiences.
Villeneuve's Dune fight scene moments are flat and tremendously unexciting and Stellan Skarsgard's Baron Harkonnen just seems to be a clone of Marlon Brando performances. I should probably mention that Once Upon A Time In The West is my favourite film to show that I'm not necessarily opposed to slower movies.
I would much rather rewatch the flawed Lynch adaption than this newer version. I actually think this is the most boring big budget film that I have ever seen. And it was a terrible blind buy.
