Frank Herbert’s “Dune” offers this type of tale and scales. Herbert’s hero, Paul Atreides, heir to a major power within an intergalactic Imperium, comes to a desert planet where a previous substance will decide the future of his society and trillions of lives. Therefore, a cinematic ada...
It took “Dune” about nine minutes to completely strip me of my anticipation. This movie is a real mess, an incomprehensible, ugly, unstructured, pointless excursion into the murkier realms of one of the most confusing screenplays of all time. Even the color is no good; everything is seen...

The mere fact that David Lynch's Dune was made at all, and in the Hollywood of the early 1980s to boot, is something of a miracle. Would that it was a better adaptation of the source material, or just a better movie, period.
Dune is as much an experience as it is a movie – an orgy of immersive visuals, music and sound that pull you into its enthralling world. I bought my first Hans Zimmer soundtrack three decades ago (Backdraft) and Dune will be the next addition to the collection. The 64-year-old compos...
