Dune (2021): Wow I'm late to the party on this one. I read Dune many years ago. It was a hard read. Not saying it wasn't good but I think because of that I wasn't in a rush to see this movie. The 1984 Dune movie wasn't a great success either. Of course with Dune 2 coming out this week there's been lots of press for the new movie. I had a friend tell me this one was worth the watch and I wasn't disappointed. I really enjoyed Dune. It's been so long since I read the book it in no way shaped how I enjoyed the movie. It was just a good watch. Not sure how long the movie was but I wasn't wondering when it would end and I was surprised when it did. It did a great job setting up the second movie. I won't get to see Dune 2 in the theater. Our local small-town theater closed for good last month. That really hurt because getting to other theaters isn't as easy. I'll just prioritize movies now and have to do the streaming option more often. But I love seeing movies in the theater and I have to think Dune was great in theaters as will Dune 2. I've rambled on but know I really enjoyed Dune.
