Why watch this film?
Three years after the first part, Frank Herbert's influential - and so far, "unadaptable" - science fiction novel, Dune, has finally been successfully adapted for the screen with the arrival of Dune: Part 2, directed by Denis Villeneuve. The story picks up where the first part left off: Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) and his mother, Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson), hide in the dangerous desert of the planet Arrakis with the native Fremen, whose customs they must learn while trying to find a way to resist the Harkonnens. In the process, Paul will struggle against the destiny created for him as the Lisan al Gaib, destined to free the Fremen... at a great cost. It's a fittingly spectacular conclusion to the adaptation initiated by Villeneuve three years earlier, with successes like the treatment of Zendaya's character, although also with some stumbles that detract from the emotional impact of the narrative. It also makes clear the limits of industrial cinema, which, even with its enormous resources - or perhaps because of them - is constrained in adapting the immense complexity of the novel.

From the same director
Incendies
A powerful journey of self-discovery that deserves to be seen, diving into complex topics such as family relationships, immigration, and civil war. The film was even nominated for the Best Foreign Film Oscar in 2010.
Sicario
According to director Denis Villeneuve, 'Sicario' was conceived at the height of drug violence in Ciudad Juárez, so it is a kind of fictional portrait of those dark days. The film was selected to compete for the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, and stands out for its beautiful photography by Roger Deakins (who also collaborated with the director on 'Blade Runner 2049').
Prisoners
Directed by Canadian Dennis Villeneuve, 'Prisoners' is his first English-language production. Though on the surface it may seem like just another thriller police movie that abounds in American cinema, it is not only grandly realized from the naturalistic vision of its director and legendary cinematographer Roger Deakins (nominated for an Oscar for this film), but also due to the script capable of taking the audience beyond typical genre films, to very dark and disturbing places of human will and morality. The cast is full of great actors with excellent work (including Viola Davis, Terrence Howard and Melissa Leo), but Hugh Jackman, Jake Gyllenhaal and Paul Dano deserve special mention.
August 32nd on Earth
This is the debut feature film by Denis Villeneuve, who would later be recognized worldwide for his work on films such as 'Arrival' and 'Blade Runner 2049', among others. 'Un 32 août sur terre' follows a woman who, after an accident that almost took her life, begins to rethink everything and decides she wants to be a mother. She asks a friend to impregnate her, under the condition that the conception must take place in the desert, so they travel from Montreal to Salt Lake City. It's an eccentric premise and an unconventional "love" story. Villeneuve already shows great ability to convey big messages with his staging, without dialogue being necessary. A road movie with a more transcendental and ambiguous tone than what would come later in the director's filmography.
Enemy
Based on José Saramago's homonymous work, 'Enemy' is a brilliantly adapted psychological drama to the screens by Denis Villeneuve and with Jake Gyllenhaal's great performance. It's a chaotic movie that opens some interpretation leeways, which is very interesting. In the plot, a professor discovers he has a doppelganger and becomes obsessed with it. Definitely not a story recommended if you're looking for something light, we are dealing here with something dense that will stay in your head for days. The ending of 'Enemy' is a source of much discussion among those who have already watched the movie, just like in 'Donnie Darko' - coincidentally both starred by Gyllenhaal.
Blade Runner 2049
With the same rhythm as the original, 'Blade Runner', the sequel arrives to please sci-fi fans and those not yet hooked by the genre. Director Denis Villeneuve (of 'Arrival') manages to transport us to the world of replicants once again - and that with no difficulty at all. With eye-catching scenes, a soundtrack that works almost as a character of the movie, and a simple yet intriguing script, 'Blade Runner 2049' was one of the big productions of 2017.
Arrival
Director Denis Villeneuve uses science fiction and the overdone plot of "aliens arriving on Earth" to make a movie that doesn't look outward, but inward. The feeling is amplified by Amy Adams' powerful performance. Don't like aliens? Don't worry: here they are just an excuse for a larger and more important discussion than whether or not there is life out there.
Dune
Denis Villeneuve already can be considered one of the great names of science fiction in cinema. After 'Arrival' and 'Blade Runner 2049', the director adapts one of the most complicated and memorable books of the genre: 'Dune', by Frank Herbert. The story had already gained a cinematic version in 1984, by the surreal mind of David Lynch, which was not successful, but has its merits. Villeneuve's version manages to impress with its beauty and development, which make the narrative even more attractive than in the literary work. Throughout almost three hours, we follow Paul Atreides' (Timothée Chalamet) journey on the planet Arrakis, a deadly place, which is the only source of a precious spice that dictates the rules of the galaxy, also known as Dune. The feature has a good rhythm, does not tire and manages to level well the most poetic scenes with those of action. It works very well as an introduction to the plot, since it brings only the first part of the book. If by chance the script does not attract you, the visual of the production will certainly leave you breathless. 'Dune' also has a very strong political context, which can easily be compared to territorial disputes for oil in the Middle East.
Action
The Fall Guy
The Fall Guy is one of those films that seem designed to have it all and thus please the broadest audience possible. Based on the 1980s series of the same name and directed by David Leitch (former stunt double and now director of films like Bullet Train and Deadpool 2), the movie follows Colt Seavers (Ryan Gosling), a down-on-his-luck stunt double who must investigate the mysterious disappearance of actor Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), as this would ruin the first movie of his beloved, filmmaker Jody (Emily Blunt). And the major problem with this movie is that it tries to be everything: romantic comedy, action comedy, Hollywood satire, crime mystery, and more, hampered by the magnitude of its own ambitions, as well as an overloaded and unclear script. You can enjoy it as an insight into the world behind action cinema, and for the charisma of Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.
Money
In this high-stakes action thriller, two pharmaceutical executives are about to get away with stealing $5 million until an uninvited houseguest derails their plans and holds them hostage during an all-night standoff. Featuring a powerful ensemble cast, including Jesse Williams, Kellan Lutz and Jess Weixler, MONEY is a chilling lesson in greed that will keep you guessing until the very end!
Deadpool & Wolverine
Wolverine is recovering from his injuries when he crosses paths with the loudmouth, Deadpool. They team up to defeat a common enemy.
The Witch: Part 2. The Other One
The Witch: Part 2. The Other One - A fast-paced action, mystery and thriller film that follows a young woman with impressive telekinetic powers, desperately fighting for her life while unraveling the mysteries of her past, pursued by unscrupulous killers. With Blue Dragon Award nominations for Best Supporting Actress (Seo Eun-su) and Best New Actress (Cynthia), this film captures the protagonist's intense battle to find answers and justice, facing not only her persecutors, but also to his own inner demons.
