The release of 'Dune: Part 2' has garnered mixed reviews from viewers and critics. While some praise its visual appeal and entertainment value, others criticize its pacing and character development. The movie's success at the box office, including a $20 million opening in China and a $46 million weekend box office in the U.S., has sparked discussions on film budgets and production quality. Director Denis Villeneuve's handling of the adaptation and themes has also been a topic of conversation among audiences.
Got Dune 2 IMAX tickets for tonight. Will report back.
Commentary: ‘Dune 2′ portrays the danger of mixing religion and politics. It doesn’t know the half of it. https://t.co/Tabw1tOUaN
Zendaya's Chani nearly ruined Dune: Part II. I've resisted carping about this because I enjoyed the film so much, but I'm in a carping mood this afternoon. A few thoughts on why she sucks both as an adaptation & on the film's own terms: 1/ https://t.co/I0Ik2uFQy2
Interpol co-founder Carlos Dengler did NOT like the new "Dune" flick's ham-handed attempts to inject progressive girlbossery into the Frank Hebert universe. He writes about it exclusively for @compactmag_ https://t.co/tiu9N7mDdd
REVIEW: The sand-filled vision of Arrakis in "Dune: Part Two" continues to work on a massive scale. @phillipstribune has more https://t.co/0KgNsCaV0m
Anyone see dune 2 yet? I’m seeing it now, and I gotta say. I really want @SethMacFarlane to do a family guy version. I can totally see Peter griffin riding the back of a sandworm, and it needs to happen. Thank you for coming to my TedxTalk.
Taking the kids to see Dune 2 tonight. It's kind of like Finding Nemo except in the desert, right?
Weekend Box Office: 1) #KungFuPanda4 - $58.3M 2) #DunePartTwo - $46M 3) #ImaginaryFilm - $10M https://t.co/Yla3TePQHB
Was not a fan of the original Villeneuve "Dune" film, in part bec I just don't care for sci-fi. My son convinced me to give "Dune 2" a shot, and I'm so glad I did. It's pretty great. Villeneuve is a breathtaking visual stylist.
My review of Dune: Part 2. Very impressive, overall! But I have a few reservations about how it deals with political themes. https://t.co/BJGln0GwQp
Dune I+II probably best and most entertaining sci-fi/fantasy adaptation on the big screen since Peter Jackson's LOTR, it's true. https://t.co/MEX7vAynHb
Denis Villeneuve on how readers of Frank Herbert's novel DUNE initially misinterpreted the warning signs of the rise of a messianic figure. Watch/listen to our full conversation with the @dunemovie: Part Two filmmaker: https://t.co/VhDL0mRiE1 https://t.co/eage5T06PD
Gonna watch Dune 2 in IMAX this better be worth the hype
If Denis Villeneuve can make sandworms work for less than $200 million in Dune: Part 2, then so can you. https://t.co/o4puDf4cp0 https://t.co/ijyVzJh1sK
You may have seen Dune: Part 2 this weekend, but did you ride a sandworm in a Fremen stillsuit to do it? https://t.co/pAb0ldKDMi https://t.co/7hutoZDvqy
Dune: Part 2’s success with a $190 million budget brings into question: why do so many movies cost so much more but look so much worse? https://t.co/sT3xuxhrKS https://t.co/Lzaeyaf1Fi

My wife and I watched the first half of ‘Dune: Part 1’ tonight. We will watch the rest sometimes this week before we go watch ‘Part 2 ‘in theatre on Friday (second time for me, first for her). Man, what a great film. I had seen it twice in theatre back in 2021 but not since… https://t.co/tFIVCsr5wh
Chris Vannini Movie Review™️ Dune Part Two: Mehhh. Beautiful film with great ideas, but the execution is odd. Pacing is off. Half the movie is about the next movie. Things happen with little explanation. Chalamet is not yet a leading man. 3/5 stars https://t.co/c4ZWLCGcBw
During this break in the action, check out my review of this weekend's #1 movie, KUNG FU PANDA 4: https://t.co/DAOjqzUBla #Oscars #Oscars2024 #KungFuPanda4 https://t.co/BNttW7XDnE
Rewatched Dune in preparation for seeing sequel with the wife. It was just as boring as the first time I saw it. 😭 I guess I'm doing it wrong. Expectations for #2 are astronomically high based on reviews so basically no way I walk out a winner here. I usually love sci-fi but 🤷♂️
