Episode description
After myriad COVID-related delays, it's finally here: the long-awaited adaptation of Frank Herbert's sci-fi opus, Dune. Director Denis Villeneuve (Arrival, Blade Runner 2049) returns once again to the sci-fi genre with this new film starring Timothee Chalamet, Oscar Isaac, and Rebecca Ferguson as the leaders of House Atreides, the noble house that vows to tame the desert planet of Arrakis and control the most valuable natural resource in the galaxy. If that sounds complicated, buckle up, as Villeneuve has his work cut out for him in adapting Herbert's famously dense epic. Is the final product worth the wait, or is it the real mind-killer?
