Steven Weintraub, de Collider, said that “without surprise to anyone, I loved #Dune2. Incredible cinematographic production. Brilliant music. The entire cast was excellent. My only complaint was that I wish it were longer. I am not kidding. The film lasts 2 hours and 40 minutes (?) and I would have loved to see it for another hour.

“Dune: Part Two is a masterpiece. Denis Villeneuve presents an impressive and action-packed achievement in a complex and compelling story. It’s an amazing, moving film that demands to be seen on the biggest, most immersive screen possible. I loved it. Innovative and exciting. Some of the images from Dune: Part Two left me so amazed that I feel like I understand how everyone felt when they saw Star Wars for the first time in 1977. Sometimes it’s just incredible, wrote Brandon Davis of Comic Book.
