Just hope it's not a painfully boring nothing like Knock was... Easily his most forgettable anything. Never been so bored. Could've hammed up that hilarious ass concept so much more. The worst M Night is a boring M Night.
Couldn't disagree more

Big german youtubers rank this from worst Mad Max to average film. There's probably someone who loves it, too, these are just the one i'm following more regularly. Interesting how opinions vary on this... i mean, when you look outside RT and Metacritic.
First Mad Max put me to sleep. I can't imagine liking Furiosa less

A Cinemascore is locked. I just think it's impossible for a Dune movie to reach A+.

Damn, $10m Thurs is actually pretty good, and WOM is superb. Could this hit $80m still after all?

Back down to 95% audience RT with 250+ ratings

I don't think a DUNE movie could ever be received more spectacularly by critics and audiences alike. Insane numbers

One thing's for certain -- this OST is making workouts a breeze lmao

Dune 2 got a 5th rotten review, so safe to say that its peak will most likely be 97% and will likely settle at 94-95 I'd say

Probably not likely they award it the same awards the last one did. Except for VFX. Pretty much what happened to The Two Towers and Avatar 2.
Could be, but Dune Part Two is substantially more acclaimed than its predecessor (97% RT vs. 83% RT, 80 MC vs. 74 MC) which Two Towers and Avatar 2 cannot claim.

Seems like alot of big time Dune Heads giving reviews here, which is totally fine to be, but they also told me I should be cuming my pants over Part One too.
Yeah I think Dune 1 is a 7.5 or so, this is a 9 for me. Much more alive both visually with its vibrant colors, its sense of community, and in the narrative's sense of drive, purpose, and realization of its characters' arcs this time around.

Sound, Visual Effects, Production Design, and Original Score are already fully sewn up for next year's Oscars, by the way, and that's the very least I feel it could haul. Likely Film Editing too, especially if Part One won the same award.

This is a truly great movie. Dune Part One was good. I'm around a 9/10 on this bad boy.

Not sure, but the clips look quite good, imo.
Do we have any links? At work so can't access YouTube if they're uploaded there. One thing's looking certain: I don't think this movie can possibly get the worst reviews of the holiday season now that Rebel Moon's embargo dropped

That tweet to me reads like the actuals will have The Marvels way down and behind Thanksgiving, though... Which would not surprise me one bit.
Oh damn, yeah I glossed over "estimates", maybe they'll flip the script

That's disappointing if it pans out. Caught Thanksgiving last night, and while the 3rd act is far from perfect, the movie as a whole is still a totally self-aware, funny blast with creative kills and occasionally sly commentary.

Debuts with an epic 83% verified audience score.
83% with 100 ratings?! The Flash is at an 83% after 5K ratings and received a B CinemaScore
Yes, yes, wait for PostTrak exits, but this isn't gonna be pretty

Damn, this movie is still at a 92% verified RT with 1,000 votes? It must've been super borderline for an A- CS, pretty unfortunate it landed on a B+ (haven't seen the movie yet)

Yeah, this was a solid 6.5-7/10 for me. Decent characters, excellent production design, VFX (minus that one GLARING exception), and sound design. I just felt like it had no ambition. Even this "bonkers" 3rd act everyone was raving about felt...kinda perfunctory? It was over in like 10 minutes!
Thankfully the film was well paced and it's the first time I can say "I felt like I was playing a video game" as a compliment. Some great set pieces throughout. But I was much less scared throughout than I was expecting.
With an early 88% RT verified from 500+ reviewers, though...B+ CS incoming?
