Product Information

Optional subtitles, including English (SDH), are included during the main feature and applicable extras.

Herbert's novel is a laboriously constructed piece that literally creates a whole new universe populated by a variety of interesting characters. Again, everything dressed with synthesized sounds, drone like music, processed guitars, forgettable melodies, and vocals that have become boringly familiar. This is the first part of a longer movie that will only get better with age and after repeat viewings.

The 1080p stream was way too low resolution to showcase all the seemingly endless details delivered by the film, and even the 4K version felt a bit compressed.Additionally, while the detail is sharp and vivid, in the darker sequences, closeups don't always reveal the beads of sweat, sand specks, or other minor details that the other 4K transfer picks up easily.

Josh Brolin brings some heavyweight support to his weapons master role, Jason Momoa embraces the inner warrior as the swordsman who Paul rightly idolises, whilst Zendaya ( Spider-Man - No Way Home) and Javier Bardem ( Skyfall) are suitably enigmatic as prominent players in the powerful desert tribe, the Fremen. insisted (nor is it the classic that such iconic figures as Harlan Ellison have argued through the years). delivering a dense, refined, and more immediately impressive image that will play exceptionally well on larger displays. for fans to check out this new Arrow release in tandem with Jodorowsky's Dune before venturing to the local cineplex to see if three's the charm.It was not scary, not at all, could not compare to any way to the original film where the world was simply horrific. The visual effects work throughout is almost perfect, while Hans Zimmer provides one of his best scores to date, and the all-star ensemble cast deliver excellent performances. Stunning cinematography and effects create an experience that begs to be enjoyed in full 4K HDR glory on as big a screen as you can find.

Without question, this is a standout release and already on the short list for 2022's best-looking discs.

But Villeneuve has polished this masterpiece of a science fiction novel to extract the true nature of the militaristic civilisation of the far future that Frank Herbert imagined.

The audio is superb, provides a real speaker workout and Zimmers score including space bag pipes really adds to it.

Perhaps things would have been different had Warner not been so quick off the mark to green light a sequel to complete the story - Dune "Part 1" potentially relegated to the heap of incomplete works where audiences can only imagine what could have been had the directors been allowed to finish the saga (c. all-in approach to the Lord of the Rings trilogy over two decades ago), Villeneuve's film was clearly well-served by the risk. It's arguably one of the most immersive, intense tracks of 2021 (not that it'll make a UK Top 10 list as for some inexplicable reason it's not hitting our shores until 2022). Even with the numerous close/middle shots, you can see a lot of effort was taken to give every texture in a character’s face and clothing some sense of dimension and depth. Someone fiddles with a ring- "DUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHH BRRRRRRRRRR UHHHHHHHHHHHH" thunders the score with profound bass tones and an unnatural, eerie sounding electric guitar.The year is 10,191, and four planets are embroiled in a secret plot to wrest control of the Spice Melange, the most precious substance in the universe and found only on the planet Arrakis. aspect ratio, but this does result in a more consistent look for Dune, which is admittedly less distracting. What I like especially is the time he takes to get the powerful mood and environment right, with overwhelming vistas of deserts, mountains, armies and attacking space fleets.

I've read that some folks with 3-D projectors were having issues with some slight banding and a little crosstalk, but I didn't experience that on my OLED screen.
