9/10.
Probably.
9/10 for what I saw before I sloped off to bed.
Dev Patel is very good in it but the kid who plays the character as a 5 year old is staggeringly good.

Dune. A masterpiece but I expected nothing less from the guy who did Arrival. Zimmer with a fantastic score.
Make sure you watch it in the cinema. The big screen does it justice!

Not a bad film, its about the guy who starred in Hogans Heroes, the 70's TV comedy. He was addicted to sex. It ruined his life.

Watching Kingsman: Golden Circle
Love the scene with the retirement home in Italy:
"That's the best shit I've had in 3 weeks"
Funny as fuck!

I thought watching it in the cinema took away from it because tge sound was so loud that I missed loads. At home I'd have been able to rewind or add subtitles.
It really is ridiculous how sound destroys movies. I blame the glass of water in Jurassic Park. :-)
I watched Dune last night, it looked amazing, as @City_Sean said I think you have to see in the cinema (IMAX specifically) to really appreciate some of it. Some of the cinematography is spectacular. IMAX makes the whole experience really immersive.
As for the film in general I thought it was good not great, as you could tell it was a part 1, which in fairness it does point out. Always felt like it was building up to the part 2.
I don't know anything about the book or the original, so I went into it with a clear mind. I think you can still enjoy it not knowing anything about it.
7/10 - probably a 6.5 if you don't watch it on the big screen. I'm probably being a little bit harsh on it with the scoring too.

Also watched Ron's Gone Wrong this weekend, 20th Century studios first animated move since they shut the studio that did Ice Age, Rio etc... It's got really good reviews (81% with critics on RT, 97% with audience) but I'm not sure why to be honest.
The concept is unique to some extent, the message about being wary of technology especially around kids isn't unique. The animation is okay, nothing special, got a little bit bored in sections.
5/10
