Dune

Science-fiction as its most majestic, unsettling and enveloping. ★★★★★ ” Robbie Collin, The Telegraph

Denis Villeneuve (Arrival, Blade Runner 2049) directs 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 (Timothee Chamalet), 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.

This is an incredible and epic movie – even for those who aren’t big fans of the sci-fi genre.
