So in the OG it does a lot of exposition throughout the movie, and then towards the end they sort of gloss over stuff at the end that was in the book. It was still really good.
In the movies I like that it was slowed down because it was two movies. I loved how they leaned into the religious aspect of the story and the cinematography was fantastic. The music was great also, I'm a big Hanz Zimmer fan.
Hans Zimmer was the first movie composer name I learned to recognize.
Never cared about credits, but sometimes the music was so banger I'd be like who is this??
And every time it was Hans Fking Zimmer
I don't think the music in Dune is the most memorable compared to some other scores, but this is not meant as a criticism.
The music works in Dune. I say "work" here not merely as in "fits" but as in it had a straight up job and it involved some heavy lifting and it broke a sweat and got it done and should probably get a raise and a promotion.

I liked it since I identified it in Interstellar and Inception. When the music seems special, I always look to see the composer, even if I have to wait through a whole lot of scrolling credits.

I’ve got to agree on the Hans Zimmer music!! They couldn’t have gotten anyone better for the movies, being that the books are so famous and well liked. I think they were all good, each from a different perspective. Different writers (adapters) and different directors.
