lorddemaxus Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 This was always going to get good reviews from critics. Care more about what this implies for audience reception and it's looking pretty good for an A cinemascore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say at this point, the main thing it has going for it is that this year is looking really weak, following the strike. As far as social media reactions go, these are good, but probably not 90+ on Metacritic good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be the 2nd Sci Fi film after EEAAO to win in 3 years, so the Academy doesn't have to feel bad about giving it to 2 SF films in a row.

Valonqar Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 If reviews hold this should get at least one acting nom. I'd say supporting is easier to get in but considering how weak the year looks lead categories wouldn't surprise me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair most movies doesn’t get 90 on MC anymore now that they can get 75 reviews or so Not even Oppenheimer or Poor Things get it. Even Zone of Interest just barely get it but with way less reviews. The main problem for WB is that movies released this early rarely get to win awards, EEAAO doing it was very rare. And of course the academy usually hates genre movies. Even with likely rave reviews i doubt this have any strong chance in the main category Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IchwanBigBrother Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I have absolutely no time for any critic who says these movies run out of steam, tread sand, whatever. But I am a self selected fan of the Herbert world so, obviously I'm biased. What bores people is highly subjective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasNicole Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Hoping people saying it manages to be more intimate despite all the huge scale is right. Saw the first part again on theaters last week and found it quite worse than i though first, too detached emotionally but not in a cool way. Still a strong 4/5 because the supporting characters are to good and the universe is constantly fascinating but Paul was a bore. Excited to see how he grows in this one.

Yes, i quoted it, it was very rare how they manage to keep the movie alive and strong an entire year. The slow burner release probably helped, it doesn’t had any rush for everyone to see so many people saw it late in that year. This slow burner release won’t happen with Dune, but i’m sure it’ll be nominated and WB will have the headache every studio dream about: having 3 big players for awards (Dune, Mickey 17 and Folie a Deux).
