    Classic but don’t expect it to jump off the screen

    When I saw the pre order, I wasn’t even sure if a new remake that had slipped by me during Covid so I rushed to order without checking. Coolest steel box and display but it’s simply a remastered version of one of my old, old, old favorites. Old meaning it doesn’t really have all of the same pizzazz as some newer releases when it comes to overhead atmos surround speaker experience

    Good Film Transfer, but Not the Definitive Edition

    This is a super weird movie. If you haven't seen it, recognize that it may not be for you. But in the "culty" world of cinema, this is a legendary and notable film (whether you like it or not!) for a bunch of reasons. As far as the film transfer, this is a solid presentation of Dune. However, it is far from a definitive version. I suspect, now that Dune is being remade, that this older Lynch-directed version will get a new release and will most likely be remastered in 4K. However, that edition will be comparatively expensive. Might be better to just get this version for cheap before it is replaced.

    I have watch this movie so many times. The TV series they tried to do did not do this movie justice. Sting skinny, Patrick Stewart as one of the warriors all for the "Spice." I just had to purchase it on blu ray for better quality

    Extended version is better.....

    This is not a review of the discs. I own the steelbox DVD 1984 version which includes both the original theatrical release and the extended versions. As with the LOTR extended version movies, the Dune extended version is so much better. I will not upgrade to blu-ray or 4K until the longer version is released!

    Review of the Blu ray, not the movie

    The movie Dune is loved or hated as a movie adaptation of Herbert’s book. My review is not of the movie but of the Blu ray. The features are awesome, the menu is great and the picture quality is remarkable. I have seen the digital version available on Amazon Prime and while it’s a digital transfer/version, the Blu ray looks better and the sound is better too. The deleted scenes are cool but don’t help with the storyline. The fx feature spots on the mind of David Lynch are really worth the price of the Blu ray. If you like Dune you’ll love it more on Blu ray!

    David Lynch's Dune isn't a direct adaption of the novel, but an interesting take and some great performances.

    The film Dune is often bashed, but I believe it’s a masterpiece of sci-fi cinema.The plot is complex but it’s no harder to follow than Game of thrones.

    The extras on this disk are amazing. I learned alot about the troubled production of Dune. I honestly did not know that they even created a toy line for this film. The 4k looks great. The transfer is well done IMO. There is some heavy grain in some scenes and the effects are a little obvious in some of the later scenes, but the amazing costumes and set design are all here in all their glory. This was a pretty ambitious project probably a bit ahead of its time, and I blame the quality of those scenes on the era and not the transfer. All in all, if you are fascinated by Dune, then this ARROW release is a must gave.

    Buyer Beware

    First off, great movie. However, when I purchased this there were two SKUs for the same Dune 4k version of the movie. SKU 35386783 and SKU 6485950. The SKU 35386783 was $10 more. I ordered the higher priced SKU thinking it came with a collectable Steelcase or some additional features. It does not. In fairness, the specs did not mention that it did, I just assumed it did due to it's higher price point. I confirmed this with Best Buy Agent via online chat that they are exactly the same movie, features, etc. Buyer beware!

    The sound quality mix into 4K was excellent through my soundbar. The video transfer into 4K was also excellent. I never saw the original movie until now, I enjoyed it but I noticed that they had to cut out details of the movie that you see in the new one, and vice versa things that you didn't see in the new movie but you saw in the old one which gave some clarity. All in all I enjoyed the movie it is worth getting, and if you're a fan of the franchise it's worth getting.

    I haven't seen this since I saw it originally back in 1984 but found myself reciting lines along with the dialog. It's definitely an interesting take on a massive book and does a decent job of condensing it all into a little over 2 hrs. The dialog is stilted in places, but maybe that makes it more memorable.

    A great presentation of a flawed film.

    David Lynch’s 1984 version of Dune is a flawed film, but it is one that I have come to appreciate more each time that I watch it. The production design is amazing and the music is great, the hectic pacing and over/under explaining of plot points harms the story. The UHD A/V quality is outstanding and a huge upgrade from the prior Universal Blu-ray. The bonus features are excellent as well and the physical extras (poster, lobby cards, book) complete an overall beautiful package. If you are a fan of the film, this is a must have release.

    Long movie that is hard to comprehend seeing for the first time. We have watched this movie several times and each time pick up some new details. Still need to watch a couple of more times. We don't get tired seeing it.

    This movie got a bad rap when it came out. There were parts that I was not happy with, but when you take into account the difficulty of making a film from a book with so much going on mentally it is really amazing what they accomplished. They also had Frank Herbert as advisor. It stands up well.

    This classic piece of science fiction wonderment, DUNE, beautifully restored, remains an awesome attempt to enact a famous novel and remain close to its storytelling intact. See it and be reminded of its impact on the science fiction films that followed and how much the genre has changed over many years of techology.
