DUNE is a Denis Villeneuve film, where some will love it (like myself), and others will loath it. The box office will be the true test for Villeneuve's blockbuster.

DUNE REVIEW: An Old-School Trilogy Opening Act

DUNE hits theaters and HBO MAX on October 22; listen to my quick thoughts on the film and why I had an enjoyable movie experience. How we consume media has changed, and I’m not sure the modern audience is ready for an old-school trilogy opening act.

After you see the film come back and chat with me on Twitter – @matthewsardo

About DUNE:
Oscar nominee Denis Villeneuve (“Arrival,” “Blade Runner 2049”) directs Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures’ “Dune,” the big-screen adaptation of Frank Herbert’s seminal bestseller of the same name.

A mythic and emotionally charged hero’s journey, “Dune” tells the story of Paul Atreides, a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, who must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet’s exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence—a commodity capable of unlocking humanity’s greatest potential—only those who can conquer their fear will survive.
