For a movie that’s only the first half of something and that moves not unlike one of its own hulking, gargantuan sandworms through a planet’s worth of sand, Villeneuve’s Dune wields more than enough overpowering spice to warrant a visit. Whether anyone will be inclined to return remains to be seen.
...perhaps the biggest shortcoming is simply an overstuffed screenplay branching in too many different directions. It’s a far cry from the valiant laser-focus of Guns. Force 10 isn’t a big fat zero, though it’s easy to observe that the Force is not all that strong with this one.
