After a rewatch…I can confirm…Dune Part 2 is perfect

There were moments while watching this film where I was damn near brought to tears by the sheer masterful filmmaking being put on display in glorious 70MM IMAX.

Everything I loved on the first watch hit even harder on the second watch. 

The politics, the faith oriented imagery, the emotional intensity within this cautionary tale of a young man in a universe full of unrest and divide had me hooked from beginning to end.

Seeing Paul Atreides come of age in this dark universe compelled me and shook me to the core. Timothee Chalamet gives a performance of a lifetime. Zendaya and Austin Butler were amongst my favorite performances of the film as well.

There are shots from this film I can’t get out of my head, there are lines from this film that are etched in my memory, there are sequences from this film that I keep playing over and over and over again…

Dune Part 2 is phenomenal.
