This was AWESOME. I felt like I was pulled into something ancient, vast, and hauntingly beautiful. I didn't really know what to expect going in, just that it was sci-fi and set way in the future. But what I found was a world that felt both alien and also deeply familiar. From the very beginning, the scale of everything felt incredible. The music, the silence, the desert. The film felt so patient, almost reverent, like it knew its story was bigger than any one person or even planet. And at the center of it all is Paul. There was a weight to this film that felt hard to put my finger on. It wasn't just about politics or prophecy. But identity, survival, and a new awakening. The desert wasn't just a setting, it felt so alive! It's danger and beauty. And the tension between the colonizers and the Fremen made me want to learn more, understand more. I'm honestly so excited to see Dune: Part Two! See you all there!Thank you for your support on Patreon!Relax and enjoy 🍿🌿LINK: https://youtu.be/wGke0SuWeiAI watched this on HBO Max

Dune: Part One | Watch Along

Welcome in! 🌿 Grab a drink and get settled in!

The Dingo

I am debating if I want to rewatch this or not - I was part of the minority that didn't enjoy it in the theaters, but given all the support everyone has, well like I said I'm debating.

Richard

Yup, another movie I’ll be seeing for the first time thanks to how Kali described it.

kaliwali

I feel like a rewatch would be fun with a gummy (if you're into that sorta thing) or a drink and cranking up the volume 🤣✨ It's Hans Zimmer after all!

Robert da Spruce

Looking forward to watching your reaction tonight Kali!

I've been grinding the new Dune game so I can't wait to see what you think. Can't watch today because I get to spend the day with the Dad 🙃

I know that I say "I'm so excited!" almost every time, but this time I'm even *more* excited, because I'm one of those people to whom Dune is a masterpiece! After the debacle of the 1984 movie adaptation (which was saved only by the brilliance of Sting!), I was extremely concerned when I heard the film was being remade. But the brilliant Denis Villeneuve knocked it out of the park, capturing so much of the true story and spirit of the novel. In additional, today is Fathers' Day, so I guess I get to watch this reaction whenever I want! 😁 Thanks, Kali!

everyone will love this and I get it; but, my fav Dune will always be the TV miniseries

Scott S

So much of this film is a work of art. Costumes, Score & Sound design, Cinematography, Acting. After seeing other works from Denis, I don't doubt his vision, him and Nolan are on another level. Chef's kiss.

"... sat back and let it wash over me..." Yes! There's Dune lore like crazy, and you'll get a few answers in Part 2, but I can't think of a better way to ruin a good time watching a sandworm a 1/2 mile long eat a crawler than worrying over the lore!

Joe

What an incredible movie and a great reaction. I love good world building and this movie has it in spades. You kind of need to just give yourself over to this movie when watching it. There is so much new names, people, politics and spirituality. But it is not about trying to figure it all out (you'll get there eventually,) it is about experiencing this new world. This movie was a sensory experience. I felt like I was not only seeing and hearing it, but somehow taking this movie in with all five senses. I am so glad you enjoyed it. I do recommend not waiting too long before watching part two because this movie was kind of build up to part two, which i liked even better. Then you won't have to do as much re-learning of names. Also yes, you caught a few MCU people with Drax and Dr. Selvig. There was also MJ, Thanos, and another big actor that you have not met yet in the MCU.

Just finished your reaction, and I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I was first drawn into this world through Frank Herbert’s Dune. It’s dense, roughly 800 pages, and took me three tries to get into it. I’d encounter words I didn’t recognize and put down the book. I’ve always had a fairly good vocabulary, but what helped, greatly, was bookmarking the glossary. Then it was a breeze. Because the book got me into the world of Dune, I absolutely encourage reading it, but I suggest finishing Dune: Part Two first, *then* reading it. I think your 2nd viewing with your husband will help you a lot ahead of Dune: Part Two. I hope he enjoys it too! 🤞

(Oh, and the ornithopters were exactly how I imagined them from the book! I was elated! (They had full scale ‘thopters on location in UAE and Jordan). And both Denis Villeneuve and Hans Zimmer had first read it when they were young teenagers, and had wanted to make it their whole lives.)

what an intense movie.. I realized along the way I didn't forget that much. For now, I'm not that hyped by the story because it seems to present yet another messiah/chosen one story hehe, maybe I'll be surprised by the next movie.. On the other hand the world created for this is amazing and yet so.. credible. It seems to hold no punch when criticizing imperialism/colonialism and I'm very curious what the second movie will say about this. The only thing I could do without is the whole budding romance thing, I'm too old and bitter for those tropes , but who knows, maybe the next chapter will also surprise me on that front. I think it's what made me delay for so long watching the part 2.. this and the fear of having to wait four or five more years for the following part, but oh well, yolo c':

Decided to not watch this one for myself ahead of you and instead experience it for the first time with your reaction, and this was so good! It really is about the experience. And just sitting back and immersing yourself in this entirely new, detailed, world. Loved the contrast between all the tech with the ships and shields, and the grounded combat with blades. There's still so much to take in that this definitely deserves a rewatch haha. Now the obligatory music comment haha. The score was amazing! I definitely felt a lot of themes from Gladiator with the percussion and vocals, but loved how it branched in a way that fit this world's vibe so perfectly. And in typical Hans Zimmer fashion, the score knew when to remain in the background as support, and when to completely take over the scene. I think my favorite thing tho about this score, was the build. For almost all of the movie, it felt like there was this constant 3-note pattern repeating over and over in the background. It gave such a strong sense of tension and anticipation that made the whole experience all the more powerful

Marty McGee

I will say that yes the miniseries (I assume you mean the early 00's and not the recent Dune: Prophecy) is a more faithful adaptation with much more from the book, and I do love that version. But this is such an amazing visual and audible experience while also being pretty close to the book.

Marty McGee

This is one that if you ever get the chance to see it in a theater (IMAX or biggest screen possible with top notch sound) absolutely jump at the chance. It's an incredible experience. Dune: Part One is definitely my favorite movie since the LOTR trilogy. One of my very favorite literary quotes that comes from this book and now this film is, "the mystery of life isn't a problem to solve, but a reality to experience." I also love that scene where Leto is talking to Paul about his own reluctance to lead. Especially that even if Paul said no, he would still be all he needed him to be. It was especially poignant watching it today on Father's Day. My own father said something similar to me once when I was frustrated with what I thought his expectations were for me. I always remember that moment when I don't know which direction I'm heading.

What an amazing movie I loved Paul's character arc from start to finish. Denis Villeneuve is my favourite director so this was a really fun rewatch for me. Can't wait to see your reaction for part 2. Also gurney's voice kept throwing me off lol he really does sound like thanos in other movies

Robert da Spruce

Great reaction Kali! So glad you enjoyed the film! This is definitely one of those films that so rich and detailed. That you go and read the books to get even more immersed in the universe The sound in this film is incredible! Especially in a theatre or home theater. If you love Hans Zimmer, you should check out his Live in Prague concert Blu-ray. It has many of his most famous songs from the movies. Very enjoyable! Can’t wait for part 2!

Nick

Great reaction as always. I actually didn't read the book ahead of time and I struggled in the theater to keep up with the proper nouns and all the terms too. The re-watch (especially with subtitles) was massively helpful. One thing I picked up on a couple re-watches was a better interpretation of the dream sequences. When I first saw it in the theater, I sort of walked away just thinking some of them came true, some of them didn't. But I'm now seeing the metaphorical meanings more clearly. For example, Duncan living amongst the people representing the melding of Atreides and the Fremen. Janis telling Paul he would be his gateway to the desert way of living. Even though Paul killed him, it was Janis' challenge that allowed Paul to rise up and gain credibility amongst the Fremen, in turn setting his path towards the desert. So while Janis didn't literally teach him, the vision was in essence true. Pretty cool to pick up on during this rewatch!

Chris Truex

No spoilers, but Frank Herbert was definitely playing by his own rules. The narrative can be quite unpredictable!

kaliwali

I hope I can play the Dune games sometime in the future!!

Mister Lou

aaw you've gone and Dune it now! started one of my favourite Sci-Fi movies of all time! can't wait for Part 2!

Farbod

Fantastic reaction! I need part 2!!

Colton Elliott

Glad you enjoyed part one. Dune 2 is easily my favorite IMAX experience of all time!

kaliwali

I can't wait to watch Part 2!

Christian

I liked your reaction, but I much prefer Frank Herbert's Dune (2000), the Syfy miniseries. And have second series Children of Dune (2003) both available on YouTube..

pinkdino99

Please consider some other Denis Villeneuve projects - Sicario featuring Josh Brolin (again), Benicio del Toro and Emily Blunt about CIA Black Ops against the cartels in Mexico.

Cause and Effect

so weird...this is the 3rd video of yours ive tried to watch, and my playback is happening just slightly faster than yours - but im playing it a normal speed. so after like 2 minutes, you are 5 seconds behind me. idk how everyone is doing it, but this just aint for me i guess. shame too, cuz i really enjoy your reaction videos. they aren't overblown and you dont have a super annoying commentary like 99% of other people do.
