The movie wasn't too bad until that dumb as fuck ending with Muad'dib making it rain. I've never been so irritated by an adaption before or since ...
Also, they cast Patrick Stewart as Gurney Halleck, one of the ugliest men in the story save Baron Harkonnen. Kind of a weird choice. I also don't know why Baron Harkonnen's suspensor fields made him levitate—they're just supposed to counter the gravity's pull on his weight. There were a lot of dumb choices in the movie to say the least.
Read the book, though it really is one of those books that require at least two complete sessions. I also feel that to truly appreciate the story,
Dune Messiah needs to be read as well immediately afterwards, as
Dune kind of leaves the universe hanging in the balance, and Herbert's message isn't fully realised until Paul
becomes emperor and sparks a fire that spreads through the universe.
