In this Dune Part Two review and Dune 2 analysis, we delve deep into why Dune Two stands as a monumental achievement in the realm of blockbuster cinema. Join me on a journey as I share how this film not only changed my perspective but also left an indelible mark on my life.
My experience with Dune was anything but straightforward. Initially, Dune Part One didn't quite resonate with me, I literally made a video called I watched Dune and felt nothing, leading to a period of turbulence in my appreciation for the epic saga. However, I couldn't shake the feeling that the disconnect lay within me rather than the film itself. And oh, how grateful I am that I persisted.
Dune has since become a cinematic obsession, gripping me with its unparalleled storytelling, breathtaking visuals, and profound thematic depth. With each subsequent viewing, I uncover new layers, and the film's hold on me only strengthens. It's a testament to the craftsmanship of Denis Villeneuve and his team, with a key assist from Hans Zimmer perfect Dune soundtrack, who have created an experience that transcends mere entertainment.
In many ways, Dune harkens back to a golden era of blockbuster filmmaking, reminiscent of the 2000s when spectacle, risk-taking, and visionary storytelling reigned supreme. It evokes the same sense of awe and wonder as classics like the Star Wars Prequels, the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, and the Lord of the Rings trilogy, leaving an indelible mark on audiences and creating lifelong fans in the process.
Join me as we explore why Dune Part Two is not just a film, but a transformative experience-one that pushes the boundaries of what is expected from blockbuster entertainment and sets a new standard for cinematic excellence cementing Denis Villeneuve as one of the greatest filmmakers of our time. Griffin (@griffschiller) gives you his Dune Part Two movie review, Dune Part Two video essay, and Dune Part Two explained video in this super in depth Dune video essay and analysis. Simply put, dune part two is one of the best movies I've ever seen. Dune 2 is a masterpiece, Dune Part Two is Perfect, and Dune Part Two will change cinema forever.

A detail of the film I thought was scary was in the end, the Freman don’t even collect the bodies for water anymore, they just burn them. That’s how much they blindly believe water will soon be coming to the planet. Edit: I'd like to add from what some people have said in the comments. Yes, I know that it’s supposed to mirror the beginning of the film how the Harkonnens were burning the Atreides bodies, and now under Paul’s ruling, the Freman are burning the Harkonnen bodies. There’s also the perspective that Harkonnen water is basically only good for stillsuits compared to drinking it. But additionally, the Freman didn't even think to feed the bodies to the worms either. They won't even offer the bodies to their god. Goes to show how far they've strayed by following Paul.

@pieceofadrian Месяц назад

Like my experience and the video...For people who haven't read the book it's a slow burner experience. The lore and source material is great but the movie doesn't force this on us by having to explain everything but invites us in. The 1984 didn't give it justice so people coming into to the new movies brought in a weird pre taste. The recent movies let us unravel the greatness of the Dune epic..

@ralph90009 Месяц назад

I'm a huge fan of the original books, and Part 1 was… ok. There's a ton of setup (even with all they cut out) and most of the payoff is in Part 2. There really isn't a way to fit all of it coherently into one movie, the fact that Villeneuve managed to make it even recognizable - let alone magnificent as it was - in two movies is still amazing.

I think it’s a case of people who like setup and people who don’t. I personally do, so I was 100% down for Part 1, it was my favourite movie of 2021. But I think there’s people who just need the traditional setup and payoff in the same film. I knew what I was getting into, 1 book chopped into 2 movies, so I knew the story would feel incomplete after the first…

Just a quick note, Paul didn't abandon the name Usal. It's referred to as his secret name, so I imagine he wouldn't use it when addressing the Imperium. In fact, it might even be considered disrespectful to the Freman if he DID use it publicly.

@Sam_T2000 Месяц назад

he calls himself ‘Paul Muad’Did Atreides” at the Fremen war council, though. maybe he didn’t technically give up the name ‘Usul,’ but I think the video’s general interpretation is correct.

@Sam_T2000 Месяц назад

@@TechQuest - I thought it was even more exclusive than that, like only his fellow Fedaykin know his secret name, as a form of camaraderie? early in the movie he puts away his Atreides ring, and then puts it back on once he finds the atomics and shows it off at the war council, embracing his personal desires over the Fremen, you know?

@archmaester6594 Месяц назад

Usul is his war name. Kind of like the pseudonym or call sign of modern soldiers. (In Top Gun, "Maverick" is the callsign of Tom Cruise's character) Muad'dib is his Fremen name. In the books, he had a vision of people worshipping him and calling him 'Muad'dib' so to avoid that future he choose to name himself after a harmless mouse... which happened to be also called Muad'dib

@laurenherrmann_videos Месяц назад

@@Sam_T2000yes, I think the ring symbolizes this moreso than the names, though including his original last name is also significant. I don't think he does that at any other point in the movie.

A point: The Kwisaz Haderach is by definition a male. The plan of the Bene Gesserit was to have Leto and Jessica's daughter have a son with Feyd Ruatha and that was to be the Kwisaz Haderach, but under Bene Gesserit control instead of out in the wild with an axe to grind and phenomenal cosmic power. Edit: Also, the Fremen Messiah/ Lisan Al Gaib is a prophecy manufactured by the Bene Gesserit's Missionara Protectiva in case a sister is marooned with the Fremen. They have these seeded in indigenous populations throughout the imperium. They are unrelated to the Kwisaz Haderach breeding program.

@tatianar9429 Месяц назад

Kwisaz Haderach was intended a culmination of 90-or-so, if I remember correctly, generations of eugenics. The fact of the matter is yes, there's some genetic crossover between Paul Atreidis and what the program was looking to create, but there are genetic lines and ancestral memories that Paul simply doesn't have access to, because quite a few noble houses' genoms were being collected in Feud-Rautha. So Paul's precognition and access to genetic memories and enhancements is not as complete as it could have been if Kwisaz Haderach were actually born. Paul with all his phenomenal cosmic powers is a pale approximation of powers his intended progeny would've had. Whether he would be under the Bene Gesserit's control or not is debatable: people and institutions nearly always overestimate how controllable things they create are, especially since the creation would have ended up so phenomenally more powerful that any of the people aiming to control him.

This version of Dune (movie) leaves out a lot of details that were what added so much depth to the plots and scenes. Leaving out Alia, and Bene Gesserit details from 2nd movie are missing. As an engineer the sound-based "word" and Weirding Modules were amazing technology that was truely amazing that should have been shown like in the 1984 movie version. The Weirding Modules were the counterpoint to the lasers and other weapons. They were like amazing weapons to counter the Baron's. These details should have been included.

@GreylanderTV Месяц назад

Taking the "Paul as villain" analysis too far by ignoring that Paul's extreme prescience is part of the diegetic reality of Dune. Paul is not perfect, nor omniscient, but he _is_ profoundly prescient and his visions, especially after drinking the Water of Life, are not delusions. They don't always come true because he sees the landscape of possible futures, not _the_ singular future. Something more akin to quantum probabilities. While it is true that he becomes a villain from the perspective of billions of people across the galactic empire, he does so because he is choosing (or at least attempting to choose) the "least evil" path for the greatest part of humanity. Paul's prescience confronts him with the _trolley problem,_ but on an unimaginable scale. He certainly possess human weaknesses and the bias of his upbringing as royalty to believe himself, possessed of an innate right to lead, to rule. This is not in and of itself evil, especially if the sees his role as that of steward. There is an arrogance to it, of course. But if you were taught from birth that it was your natural place to rule, you'd be hard pressed not to believe it. Further more, once power comes to you, it is nearly impossible to relinquish, however much you may wish to. You may abdicate, but having given up your power, those who fill the vacuum will always see you as a potential threat. You will never be safe. Few consider this _trap_ that royalty are born into, not of their own choosing. Because the books let us see Paul's thoughts, we know him to be far more selfless than most people. We cannot know for sure whether his choice of the "least evil" path is, indeed, the least evil, because while his prescience is real, it is not omniscient or absolute. His motive may not be absolutely pure, but they are cleaner than most. In this way Herbert succeeds to well: he gave us a hero, a dictator, that we would easily root for, "for all the right reason". Thus Herbert undermines his own intended _warning_ about charismatic leaders and fanatical loyalty. Even _Dune Messiah_ and subsequent boos fail to wholly repair this flawed, nearly contradictory, message.

@KrissAstronomist Месяц назад

A great comment!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@ryanhampson673 Месяц назад

It’s more Paul starts a movement that quickly goes out of control and he can’t stop it. A charismatic leader riles up a population to the point its beyond that leaders control. The people won’t listen to the leader anymore because they believe that much.

@GreylanderTV Месяц назад

@@ryanhampson673 Yes, but because of Paul's prescience he knows this is going to happen ahead of time, so he has a degree of responsibility for it. The prescience complicates every moral question about Paul's actions. On the one hand he foresees the prices of his revenge, but on the other hand he sees deep time and that the jihad is ultimately a lesser evil for humanity as a whole.

@derangedberger Месяц назад

Agreed, it also gets even more convoluted by the time of God-Emperor, with Leto II stating that humanity would have been extinct if not for the golden path. Now we've gone from "Paul radicalizes a population into genocidal war because he has no choice but to become their leader" to "Paul literally saved the human race, albeit at the cost of untold human suffering"

@Unlike__ Месяц назад

Im pretty sure Paul specifically chooses the path that awards him revenge though. I think he sees multiple futures where he survives but simply dies on arrakis without a holy war, he just ignores them. Later on, though, he does set his sights on the golden path.

@jdslipknot Месяц назад

Paul's speech towards the war council was pure gas.

@starvvoy Месяц назад

What I adore about Paul’s arc is that it’s similar to what i used to love Eren Jaeger for. He does these horrible things yes, because he is corrupted but he genuinely chose THE best option to save all of humanity and the fremen. In so many futures the enemies win, the Harkonnens exhibit evil dominance over the galaxy, the emperor murdering the Fremen, the entire universe failing etc. he does all of the awful things you said he does in the movie but at the same time, he quite literally has no other choice. That complexity of knowing what you do is awful but it’s somehow still the most beneficial choice for all is such an interesting and complex conflict and I love how many ways you can look at it and the effects that pressure must have on a young man

I read Dune in my late teens just before travelling. It was a formidable story that in a way helped shape how we made sense of the Middle East and Northern Africa as the world of that time came to grips with oil nations asserting their sovereignty across global politics. The story is still timely post Arab Spring, Afghanistan, Syria and now Palestine. Or even the rise of the political right across the West and how religion is now playing into that as a unifying force of supposed moral good.Slowly dropping the pretence of democracy for military might and increasing authoritarianism global politics in different quarters appears to be trying to similarly make Gods out of our leaders and our beliefs of them as such.

It was the same for me. I haven't had any connections to the dune universe when I first watched the first part. It was gorgeous and "good" as a "building up". Then, I noticed the part 2 was in cinemas and I just had to know why everyone was so hyped. I re-watched the first part again and looked some things up beforehand. And DAMN. It clicked for me. I was totally in awe with the first movie. Then I went to the second movie, and I was SHOCKED... It was like I was in trance when I left the movie after 3h... which felt like not even 2h. I can totally relate to you.

What exactly was Paul supposed to do? His options were to either become the Lisan al-Ghaib or let the Harkonnens win. There was no third option. It seems unfair to blame Paul for a situation ultimately engineered by a superpowered space CIA. While I think the film communicates Frank Herbert's intent well, Herbert's story undercuts the themes he was trying to convey. Dune is a great story but it fails at doing what Herbert wanted it to do: Make Paul a bad guy.

@KymHammond Месяц назад

This needs to be asked in terms of cinema first: what are the terms for assuring a successful blockbuster for a story that had historically struggled to succeed as popular entertainment? As for the story, Herbert had a complex understanding of the world: of societies, of beliefs, Of the types of characters they would produce, and of the powers of women. looks at the women writers of his time and who they were sourcing, and then at that age old question around the influences women have on their children generation after generation.

Movie is *visually* stunning, but is by no means a masterpiece. . it got so much wrong and is such a sanitized, over-simplified downgrade from the book that it made me appreciate Lynch's version more and love part 1 more than I already did. Things it got right (when it syncs perfectly with the book): -Worm Ride Scene (Phenomenal) -Paul receiving his Fremen name -Paul's convo with Jessica after taking water of life. -Paul's Speech to the Naibs -Harkonnens, Feyd Rautha and Geidi Prime (mind blowing) -Atomic explosion + ambush on Emperors ship (though could've been longer) -The final duel. Every other bit was sub-par, Chani's character change being the biggest crime. If I hadn't read the book I think I would've enjoyed more. Sadly part 3 is going to be even more disappointing considering how part 2 ended with Chani's face lmao. Such a joke.

@bradleycaffee4253 25 дней назад

I mostly agree with your interpretation. Where I part with it is the notion that he's a victim of his own arrogance and self-delusion all the way until the end. He *knows* what he's doing in the final war. He foresees the path that he finally takes. He understands, almost entirely, the path he's finally taking. The truth is, Paul flat out *changes his mind.* He changes his mind, in part, because of the Harkonnen attack on the sietch. Of course, in the book, his change of mind is more understandable because his infant child was killed and his sister was kidnapped in the attack.

@imacg5 25 дней назад

I see this in a different light. Paul has always known he's the son of his father and mother, the question is which way does he go: he wanted to choose his father's way, the way of trust, love, and leading, but ultimately, he went his mother's way, the way of secret, power, and controlling. In the process, he walked his own path for a while - those moments he's with Chani - and deviated from the Bene Gesserit's planning path, which is also his maternal grandmother's way. In the end, it's the family-killing Harkonnen blood came on top - his maternal grandfather's way. The deviation is important, because other than this bit, everything seemed to be under Bene Gesserit's control - even Lady Jessica's rebellion. The moment Paul and Chani fell in love and had a future, Bene Gesserit's fate was sealed. And this deviation echoes with his mother's rebellion, in that they are both results of love (Jessica decided to have a boy instead of a girl out of love for Leto, Chani became the mother of the future God-Emperor as a complete outsider of House politics). In other words, determinism, though seemingly inevitable, is doomed to fail because of love. But all in all, it's a bloody mess.

Paul being the Kwisatz Haderach was NOT what the Bene Gesserit wanted because the whole point of their planning was to have him under their control. Paul was not searching for "greatness," likely the opposite. But after gaining the sight from the Water of Life, he stopped being himself, and the part that remained wanted revenge.

@Jason_xofilos 24 дня назад

You are mostly right about Jessica. But you must understand she has been changed by drinking then transforming the “Water of Life”. As she explained to Paul she receives all the experiences and memories of the former Reverend Mothers of the Freman. So it’s her mind but impacted by all those memories. Paul basically died twice through out Dune Part 1 & 2. First by killing Jamis in this duel thus Killing Lord Paul Atreides, Duke Paul Atreides, Duke of Arrakis Then Paul becomes Paul Maus’dib Usul Fredaykin Warrior who dies drinking the “Water of Life”. And we are left with the new being with the mind of Paul who has all the experiences and memories of his genetic history if both men women if his past. Paul is now Paul Maud’dib Atreides, Duke of Arrakis he is the Kwisatz Haderach apparently What you are missing is the weight of all the past experiences and memories which can then be used to predict the future. Now you are correct Paul makes the decision to go south and drink the “Water of Life”. Frank Herbert’s warning not follow a Messiah blindly because the may be a high cost both to the Freman themselves and the billions of humans who will die in the coming “Holy War”. The unbelievable thing is Paul becomes the Freman Messiah at terrible cost to the Freman and the rest of the Galaxy’s humanity.

@christopherpumphrey7023 Месяц назад

The Dune movies are cinematically beautiful and emotionally powerful but as with any adaptation it is an artistically chosen more focused form of its literary source, and i mean this in no way as a slight to these movies both of which especially the first excited and resonated with me in a way no movie has in a very long time. That being said i did have the desire to reread the novel after part two because my memory of the story was quite dramatically different, although being inevitable it is also psychologically intriguing how the same story will be interpreted so varyingly upon each individual. Im not saying changes were made more so that the characters, details, and narratives that resonate more strongly with the reader will become the more important factors in the way it is remembered and if the author is as masterful in the depth of their storytelling as Frank Hurbert than there can and will be a different story being told to every single person that reads his book. I think these film adaptations did an incredible job with the emotional and social aspects of the characters (no small feat considering the depth of the source material and the extreme limitations in conveying to film). I guess what really amazed me with these films is how they have showed me just how amazing the original dune novel truly is, the plot points may remain the same yet my interpretation if made into a film would tell such a different overall story, and i feel this would be the case for every person.

@@nationalsocialism3504 You might be the first person I've seen to share my opinion. It's up to the reader/viewer to form their own opinions on the book/film, even if it wasn't what the writer intended. How arrogant must a writer be to write a whole other book just to force people into his ideals?! If people want to think Paul is a hero, that's up to them. Just like there are people who think Thanos was right or the Lannisters were awesome. Opinions are just that, opinions! 🤷‍♀ Freedom of thinking and speech is important! Besides, Paul Atreides IS the Kwisatz Haderach, just like Anakin Skywalker was the chosen one, even if their actions along the way are morally questionable. They are also complex human beings with emotions, they are not perfect, just like the rest of us. I personally don't think Paul is like Anakin, Paul is more of an anti-hero character as opposed to Anakin who goes full villain. But again, that's MY opinion. Also, people tend to think of a prophecy as a divine thing that must come from God or whatever, and it is not. The definition of prophecy is a simple one: it's a prediction of something that will happen in the future. So the way I see it, it doesn't matter if it comes from the Bene Gesserit or not. In the movies they focus too much on the fact that if it came from the Bene Gesserit than it must not be real. But it is real, not in a divine way, but in a "The One will come one day to lead you to paradise" way. In the end Paul gave the Fremen what they wanted, but with the "paradise" they also lost their sense of culture. So they were disappointed, but that's not Paul's fault. The message I take from it, it's not about the prophecy being real or not, but rather: will it be in fact what we want or need? And, nobody ever asked how the Lisan Al-Gaib was going to lead the Fremen into the "green paradise". Those are the questions we should ask, not if it is real or not. Even if the prophecy came from God, my questions would remain the same. About movie Chani... I can't even start! To me a person who believes in nothing is as toxic as someone who believes blindly in everything. she even goes as far as gaslight Paul about his visions 🙄 And constantly blaming him for other people's beliefs even when he did absolutely nothing to lead people that way, he was just himself. And at the end when she leaves, not just Paul, but she also leaves her people, it felt like she was just a self-centred girl who was mad because she didn't have her way. Sorry about the long "testament". I actually have more to say about the subject, but those are the important points. 😅

@tatianaferreira5998 Anakin successfully fulfilled his role... nobody seemed to understand what is role was though.

But I do agree that the "prophecy" being manufactured doesn't make it false... the Bene Gesserit manufactured similar prophecies throughout the Imperium since they had no clue where the Kwistaz Haderach would be born 10,000 years later when their plan finally culminated in success. Paul is the Lisan Al-Gaib because he is the Kwistaz Haderach... the Kwistaz Haderach being on another planet would have fulfilled a different manufactured prophecy under that planetary conditions.

I totally get this title, there are seminal films that leave huge impacts, like lord of the rings, infinity war, Harry Potter, Sam raimis Spider-Man, even for me Whiplash in 2014. Dune Part 2 definitely falls into that category.

Great review, I like the emphasis on why Chani was mad in the last act. So many people missed the chain of events and/or ignored it completely.

Chani sucked and was by far the worst part of the movie... she was the proof of why those people are wrong. Who wants to be miserable Chani with her Water-Fat face when being happy Stilgar following his messiah to burn the galaxy is your other option??? One sucks & the other is a life full of purpose and fulfillment

Not sure if saying he has tricked the freman into believing he is one of them is correct. After taking the water of life and gaining access to the genetic memory of the freman I can’t imagine anyone having a better understanding of their people at that point.

this movie was absolutely phenomenal. Me and my friend went to go see it, not expecting anything more than the first movie, and the utter childlike glee I felt watching a movie that, you can just tell, was a labor of love to this degree… restored my faith in the sci-fi movie genre. It’s rare we get to witness a modern masterpiece but this is the Lord of The Rings of 2024

Did we watch the same film? What final battle? We barely saw 2 minutes of the siege.

I think you should read/listen to the books.

exactly! the movie is average at most!

I feel the same way I was stuck on the 1984 version and loved that one and just couldn't get into this one....then it hit me and wow its truly spectacular. I needed this after GOTs ended so badly and after watching Disney destroy my first love of star wars.

I disagree about the Great Houses not accepting Paul’s ascendancy. By the Feudal Rules of the world of Dune, it makes total sense that they would for stability’s sake. Paul may be a terrorist to the Harkonens, but to the Great Houses, he is the clever son of the Duke, now Duke himself. A Duke they admired, killed by an Emperor they feared and a House they disliked.

Brilliantly succinct and insightful video man. You've illuminated some details for me which I missed in my first viewing. Feyd as an honest reflection of Paul's inner shadow under the messianic facade is quite brilliant.

I mean Paul tries to play the morality card but in the first 10 minute of the movie, his mother says “your father wasn’t a man of revenge.” And he said “I am.” I mean… it’s pretty simple lol
