Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Epic, grand, surprisingly less bogged down with worldbuilding, Dune: Part Two is at the same level as the first part, though perhaps with a less stronger reason to go to a Part Three.
- Excerpt: If the first part was full of intrigue, politics and betrayal, the follow-up is its ponderous playing out
- Excerpt: This second part disregards most of the story’s nuances in favour of stunning action sequences that engulf the screen with battles and explosions, and feature the mightiness of the monstrous worms that inhabit the planet.
- Excerpt: Director Denis Villeneuve’s visionary direction delivers a smashing finish with adrenaline-fueled action and breathtaking visuals.
- Excerpt: Ugly, outrageous, brutal, and cynical; a genuinely terrifying film about power and politics as religion and control. There is little escapism here; hits square in the social plexus of horrifying 2024.
- Excerpt: Dune: Part Two is a visually stunning picture. Denis Villeneuve crafts an elegant tale about faith, fate, and freedom. While the ending aptly wraps up this story, one can’t help but yearn to see what comes next!
- Excerpt: That lull of a bridge episode pushing us forward with action scenes and betrayal so that the lines can be drawn in the sand for future drama (this is pretty much an over-long epilogue leading towards MESSIAH).
- Excerpt: ‘Dune: Part Two’ further opens the book on the world of Paul Atreides and Arrakis in this towering accomplishment that’s as thrilling as it is stunning to watch, hear, and feel. Witness it on the biggest screen you can find.
- Excerpt: Dune Part Two distinguishes itself as a film that cuts smoothly with clarity, elegance, and purpose.
- Excerpt: Dune: Part Two surpasses even the highest expectations, establishing itself as an unquestionable technical masterpiece of blockbuster filmmaking. It warrants comparisons with the greatest sequels in history, easily becoming the new generational epitome of sci-fi epics.
- Excerpt: When I imagine “going to the movies” in the abstract, it pretty closely matches the awe I felt watching Dune: Part Two.
- Excerpt: A major blockbuster that tells us a lot about colonisation, cultural appropriation, religious fervour, and the way we perceive our leaders. I liked “Dune: Part 2” even more than its predecessor.
