Negative Positive
Title: Horrible.
Review: Big-budget sci-fi epic about the rise of a messiah on a desert planet is the exact opposite of its miniseries remake: Dull, cheesy, badly acted (with the exceptions of Patrick Stewart and Sting), and simply unpleasant to look at. It's also an incomprehensible mess with a lot of insulting interior monologue ("Arrakis...Dune...desert planet" is a phrase repeated no less than three times in the first ten minutes, as if though we couldn't get it the first time!). Certainly, this will hold much appeal to hardcore David Lynch fans but everybody else will probably be smarter and stay away. Special note to the final battle scene, which features not a single loss on the Fremen side!
