Dune is the hottest movie in the cinemas at the moment. I would love to see it, but I haven't been able to stream it yet, mostly because I have been very busy in the evenings, and considering that the movie lasts for 2 1/2 hours, I don't want to start watching it, unless I will be able to finish it as well.
But, is it worth watching? That is a question not only you ask, but I am asking it myself.
If you ask the IMDb users, then more than 180,000 people has given this an average rating of 8,3/10, which I should say is a fairly good rating. Of course, I don't really listen to such ratings, because I have often discovered that I really like movies with average ratings while those with the best ratings, are just crappy.
Do you remember La La Land, the movie that won lots of Oscars in 2017, starring Ryan Gossling and Emma Stone? It currently has an 8,0/10 score on IMDB... quite similar to the current rating of Dune. Did I like it? I never even managed to finish it, as the movie was so boring that it was impossible to watch.
Spy is a movie from 2015 with Melissa McCarthy. It has a 7/10 score on IMDb, and it is just crazy and hilarious, and it makes me laugh all the time. And then you have I Feel Pretty with Amy Schumer from 2015. Man, it has a 5,6/10 score on IMDb, and to be honest... this makes me laugh even more than Spy. It is just so hilarious. I just laugh and laugh and laugh. I don't even like Amy Schumer, but in this movie, she is just awesome!
In other words, I don't trust IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes, even though I often look at the ratings.
What is left to do?
I guess the only solution is to sit down and actually watch Dune. I can watch it on HBO Max. Would you like to watch it as well? Follow the instructions in this article: https://www.ipaddressguide.org/how-can-i-watch-dune-online-where-to-stream-dune-on-the-internet/
Have you seen it already? What score would you give the movie? I would love to hear your thoughts and your comments!
