I usually do too. The first one was alright, but I agree, it could use some improvements.

 Ar> What I have heard about the remake is mostly negative, though.

While trying to decide if I wanted to go see it, I had been reading through a lot of the comments on different websites about it. It seems the people that were giving it negative comments were ones that didn't know the story before seeing it.

My son hadn't read Dune before seeing this release, and he said the beginning was a bit difficult to follow. Overall, he did enjoy it.

It also looks like they are planning on making part 2, and will start filming in July 2022, for a 2023 release. I'm looking forward to it.
