This is a visually-amazing, usually compelling production of a difficult-to-adapt novel. The sandworm riding scenes are particularly stunning. Although the film holds the viewer's interest throughout most of its nearly three hour run time, it easily could have been trimmed by five minutes, and it does drag at moments. Without understanding them from the book, the characters are not defined enough for the audience to become emotionally engaged with them. All of the fight and action scenes have completely predictable outcomes that deprive them of any suspense or thrills.
