dune (1984)


"The spice must flow."
In the distant future, people mine Spice, a product that can fold time, and is thus essential for space travel. This precious substance is only found on one planet, known as Dune. The politics that come with big business impacts on Paul Atreides (Kyle MacLachlan), when his family, one of the ruling houses of the universe, are killed. Can he survive and is he in fact the prophet that can end the suffering of the planets?
Big budget film, that attempts to bring to the screen the first of the Dune novels. This it does with partial success, but suffers from some major miscasting, and an over complex script, (to follow it, it helps if you have read the book).
