what can i say . after have read herbert book and love lynch movie version and i be extremely disappointed . i felt i be watch a reject version of buck rogers . the set look like left over from a star war tv special . i felt the acting be a bit amateurish by most . the costume be garish and over do which give it a 60 flash gordon and pulp feel . the worm . theyre suppose to be sand worm and yet they appear to big stalagtites with a mouth at the blunt end . the effect in general be pretty second rate . i would not even start about the disgraceful navigator effect . this so called frank herbert dune wasn not even faithfull to his book . it should have be call frank herbert dune for dummy . key plot element be leave out and name be change and the entire feel of the story be sanitise . i do not even recognise the harkonnens . in fact most of the character appear nothing like herbert description have depict them . i be start to get upset just remember what a tragedy it be . i be glad i couldn not stomach the second installment .
