This Epic Sci-Fi lives up to it's genre. The sheer scope of some of the shots in this are breathtaking. Greig Fraser's cinematography is elegant, beautiful and immediately transports the viewer right back to Arrakis. This is the next chapter in the Paul Atreides saga and we can honestly say we were surprised, not only did they hit the level of quality we were expecting, they surpassed it. This was truly a cinematic feast!
Directed by Denis Villeneuve, "Dune: Part Two" (2024) picks up where its predecessor left off, following Paul Atreides as he embraces his destiny as a leader and warrior on the sands of Arrakis.
The visual effects were top notch, especially during that Sandworm sequence!
With a stacked cast that was able to deliver some solid performance this film has a lot of elements that we found enjoyable. Timothée Chalamet is fantastic as Paul Atreides. He gave us a nuanced performances that left us wanting more and asking ourselves: what comes next? Javier Bardem as Stilgar, Zendaya as Chani, Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan all do such a phenomenal job with their roles.
Austin Butler is eery, creepy and magnetic all at the same time as Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen. You never know when the guy is gonna snap!
We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and discussions as we delve into the lore from Frank Herbert's iconic novel, its visual effects, and the performances of its talented cast. From the epic battles to the political intrigue there's something here for everyone so let's dive in!

What a fantastic film this was! The visual spectacle, the breathtaking composition that Greig Fraser brings to the table, the chilling score by Hanz Zimmer and of course the incredible task of directing a film of this scale done flawlessly once again by Denis Villeneuve.

You gotta remember. The sister, even as a growing baby in the womb. Is already a reverend mother, just like Jessica.
-
first of the reactions i’ve seen where reactors actually fully understand and appreciate the work. Denis is a top tier director. Can’t wait for Dune 3
-
In the final duel, I love the way Paul has incorporated Jamis’s behaviors: the catchphrase but also beating his chest for focus. The friendship with Jamis that never was, was this bittersweet element running through several scenes
-
Javier Bardem channeled every single Arab uncle in this movie, his little happy feet dance when he hugs Muad'Dib as he becomes one of them is so cute
-
When Paul said "bring them to paradise" He was so reluctant that he really didn't want to say it
-
13:14 the amount of memes i have seen of stilgar on internet is unbelievable 😂 paul simply breathes** Stilgar: he knows our ways of living. 😂 this one was my favouri
-
Paul making the Emperor himself kneel and kiss the ring of the man he betrayed is such a vindication for the audience, one of my favorite scenes in the film.
-
Important detail: When Feyd mentions he had a dream about the witch, she didn’t plant that in him. That was a clue he also has foresight in his dreams like Paul Edit: Also, Paul’s “May thy knife chip and shatter” wasn’t a callback to Duncan. It was a callback to Jamis who had his first kill in a duel against, as Jamis said to him. Remember in all of his visions the two main people he saw were Chani and Jamis before taking the water of life and called upon him from the afterlife in the desert, as he was his guide in the desert to fremen, before they even met. Which means he was guiding Paul from the afterlife all along, even before Paul met and defeated him.

This is still the highest grossing film of 2024, $685 million dollars against a $190 million dollar budget. Coming soon: DUNE MESSIAH.

Watched it 3 times in IMAX 70mm. It’s quite possibly the greatest cinematic experience I’ve ever seen
-
Marriage is for political purposes...Chani becomes his concubine. In the books Jessica tells Chani that history will call them wife, as Jessica was concubine to Duke Leto I. Remember, he foresees that Chani will come to understand.

The spice harvesters from the harkonnen look just like gigantic Ticks...
-
You made a really great point about how Paul becomes more of a stranger to the audience after drinking the WOF and how it's done subtly with the cinematography, loved your observations and thanks for the awesome reaction!
-
57:02 I love how the big villain (of the first part) dies by a simple dagger, no big fighht, no monologue, straight to the neck and knowing this was his grandson
-
The water of life awakened the child (Alia), making her self-aware.
-
51:40 Since he started talking in this whole scene, all this monologue will get Timotheé his second Oscar nomination. His acting and his delivery were so amazing.
-
5:44 This sequence was shot during the eclipse in Jordan in late 2022. The cinematographer calculated the exact time and angle to shoot this from to get the lighting and composition to make this work. The insert shots of the eclipse are practical too. Pretty great.
-
That scene of Stilgar at 1:03:00 always cracks me up lmao he’s like “Oh shit Paul almost died!😳 anyways, LISAN AL-GAIB!! 😁
-
Dune Part 2 is streaming already? Okay. I saw this film in IMAX. It was incredible!! This is easily the best film of 2024. Great reaction! 👍🏿
