I sincerely hope that this film wins every award possible.
Back in the 80's I watched DUNE 1984 for maybe 30 or 40 minutes... then I shut it off. I hated it.... Which is why I was apprehensive to watch this one. But after seeing the trailers, I had to. So many talented actors. Rebecca Ferguson, Jason Momoa, Oscar Isaac, Stellan Skarsgard, Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem..... the list goes on and on...and not one of them disappoint in their performances. All of them were perfect.
I did not know who Timothee Chalamet was..... I had never seen him before in anything. But I must admit.....that I would not be exaggerating at all when I tell you that THIS KID FLOORED ME. His performance is a 10+. Powerful and Overwhelming. I was in complete awe. I wholeheartedly look forward to seeing more of this young man's work and I genuinely believe that he will one day be known as one of the greatest actors of all time.
I was on edge of my seat the entire film. When it was over, I was so stunned and so enthralled by all of it. All of the performances..... Special Effects... Sound, Editing, ..etc.. In awe of all the time that it must have taken into bringing this film to life. I had to watch it again. Riveting ..
