Sadly reminds half of Lynch's work

Just like Kubrick’s eye-opening, this can only be regarded as half of Lynch’s work. Lin Qi himself is not satisfied. Can he be satisfied? Semi-finished products, commercial products without editing rights, are extremely useful for this kind of creativity. Strong director, this is a sad reminder. In the same way, after filming Shuangfeng, he angrily said that in this life, he would never make a TV series anymore, and he would always be led by others (audiences, production units, investors). This was definitely the most unbearable for him. Fortunately, he The purpose of filming the Twin Peaks movie has been achieved. Of course, if Dune is a finished product, it is believed that the number of bad movies will increase exponentially, just as Shuangfeng movies are not as popular as TV series, just as Mulholland is more famous than Monster Night Panic.
As for science fiction, fantasy, fantasy, magic, whatever you want to understand, in the hands of Lynch, it will be conveyed in the style of surreal images. For a director who does not cater to the tastes of the masses and the commercial market, but who has finally made his own artistic creation concept, this is good, not good.

Extended Reading

    See the extended version. Compared with the new version in 2021, at least this version has a more complete story and a clearer explanation of the story background and worldview, and is more friendly to the audience who are new to the story of Dune. However, there are more narrations and the voices of the characters in the film, and they are important clues to advance the development of the plot, which may reduce the degree of excitement. In addition, the narrative is relatively flat, it will be similar to a running account, and it lacks the depth of the story and human thinking. Although I have not read the original book, I believe it is definitely much deeper than the movie.

    It is a little bit obscure. It is a great mistake to hand the script to this director. If Sadolovsky could direct the film himself, then he would definitely not be as perfunctory as David Lynch. David Lynch can definitely be called a good director, but he is not suitable for such cult space opera themes. He should still shoot some noir films about Freud's psychology. 3.5 stars
