Bis zu dem Angriff auf den Stützpunkt war es nicht so schlecht, dann schon. Es hat mir zwar gefallen, mit welcher Ernsthaftigkeit David Lynch und sein Team versucht haben, Dune - Der Wüstenplanet zu drehen, aber das oft ungewollt lächerliche Ergebnis entspricht leider nicht den Bemühungen. Dennoch möchte ich ein bisschen schadenfroh hinzufügen, dass es immerhin eine treue Adaption des Buches ist – das hat mich nämlich ähnlich gelangweilt. Über die verwirrende Geschichte und die nervigen inneren Stimmen, welche alles erklären, werde ich lieber nicht sprechen. Ich möchte z. B. auch nicht Sting kritisieren und werde versuchen, seine Rolle zu vergessen.

For fans of Frank Herbert's masterpiece, there is the hyper-serious and impressive adaptation by Denis Villeneuve. For everyone else, this year’s remake of the film opens up the possibility of enjoying Dune in two radically different interpretations, or rather illustrations. As in the case of the new film, it is true that Lynch’s Dune can only be fully enjoyed in the cinema on the big screen and in the presence of other viewers, who this time are not drawn in by the captivating form and devastated by the wall of flawless audio-visual stimuli of the new adaptation. On the contrary, they stare in disbelieving amazement and react loudly to the distortion of a distinctively grasped blockbuster, where every second the screen exudes not only the resources expended, but also the creative vision encompassing the form of the film’s worlds and the adaptation itself as a translation of a literary text to the screen. Lynch, who allegedly did not even bother to read the book (just like Jodorowsky before him), created a narratively delirious spectacle in which, as in his peak films, melodrama, kitsch and trash are blended with suggestively morbid visions and disturbing evil brought to the surface from behind the curtain of reality. In addition to that, unprepared viewers will be surprised also by the obstinate ambition to include not only dialogue but also the inner thoughts of the characters in voiceovers, which often enhance the film’s soap-operatic grandiloquence. Whereas Denis Villeneuve enchants viewers, Lynch rather disarms and, mainly, entertains them (with an appropriately open mind). Don’t believe the embittered fans; Lynch’s Dune is an epic, perversely deviant movie, especially in the shorter cinema version, which is even more breath-taking due to its absurd ellipses and, mainly, the fact that its resulting fragmented and rather psychedelic form was the intention of the producers, not Lynch.

David Lynch is one of my favourite directors and I love science fiction, but this is awful. I haven’t read the book and in the first hour I was unable to grasp who is who, who does what and what is going on… and then I didn’t even bother. One of the very few films where I needed fast-forward to get to the end. A star for the amazing sandworms. Lost Highway, Eraserhead and other Lynch’s films are hard to understand and it’s their strength, but in this case the story should have been more clearly told. Fail AF.

Dino de Laurentis would probably be rolling in his grave if he saw what his daughter put all those millions into. Lynch's version is hard to digest, it's a non-conceptual drivel that doesn't capture the spirit of the brilliant source material at all, it gets bogged down in irrelevant nonsense and takes shortcuts on important things. But there are some great moments. The scene when the Muad´Dib swallows the living water is excellent, here Lynch showed his visual imagination to the fullest. Brian Eno also deserves an accolade for the impressive central musical motif Prophecy Theme. Otherwise, ignore it, because this is not worthy of Frank Herbert's legacy. The little known TV miniseries from 2000 is several orders of magnitude better.

This vast universe turns in David Lynch's hands into a depressing and simplified pseudo-saga. After just a few minutes, fateful decisions about the future of many people are thrown at me, allowing previously completely unknown main characters to utter heroic wisdom and emphasizing the atmosphere with exaggerated bizarre elements. In other words, Lynch precisely "lynches" his viewer according in their most obvious assumptions, but this is noticeably less functional in the sci-fi genre than in mystery thrillers or dramas. And the detached and questionable sublimity is saved by the perfectly fitting ideal hero played by Kyle MacLachlan and, above all, by Dune itself. The visually hypnotic Arrakis, with its huge monsters, can completely absorb everyone and, at least for a moment, make them feel that what is happening on the screen actually makes sense.
