great review

Great review. Thanks :)

I suggest conclave! It’s very compelling

Love seeing your videos pop up on my feed! I loved the film sooooo much. Might be my fav blockbuster of the year.

That was sweet. Thank you for the kind review!

I 100% agree with you! I didn't expect to love this movie this MUCH. They really knew how to balance everything and how to balance viewers reaction and with all the script, characters and everything this is easily one of the best movies of the year! Great review Fatma and can't wait to see your next reviews :D

I love how it deals with robots and nature coexisting I Also think this will be good competition against inside out 2

I missed your videos hope you keep posting

Herbert took Islamic faith and pushed the faith 20,000 years (over 10,000 since end agaist the machines- Butlerian jihad) in future. How would Islam be off the Earth? In the book( and following books) humans are spread over hundreds of planets? There are elements of Islam but please understand this is set in the very far future. Things change. Wonderful review.

this franchise is slowly becoming fast and the furious also i dont mind product placement as long as the products are good

Fantastic flick

Good review. Now Im excited!!!

Where would you put it, in comparison to Fury Road? I was not excited for this, but the early reviews are hyping me up lol

Glad you enjoyed. I am looking forward to seeing it at some point.

Lisan Al-Gaib!

Not Arab ... .Amazigh. The name Amazigh literally means Free People....Freemen. not everything is Arab and not everything is Jewish.

great, thanks for review

Don’t you see enough sand already

Sofia with her teen face, body and voice - stormtrooper-veteran...🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Snyder, is a funny joke!👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣💥

Why are you so fat?

Saw the film and enjoyed it. Glad to hear the same Fatma.

What country is your husband from and what’s your ethnicity

I would love to hear your thoughts on the Civil War movie that came out a few weeks ago.

yes, would like to hear your thoughts on the director's cuts when they're released

I really want Denis to do Children of Dune and God Emperor of Dune if Messiah does well. The further the books went the crazier shit got, mainly cause Frank Herbert was eating a lot of magic mushrooms 😂 But seriously when the giant worm human hybrid god king shows up that is the best

Just because the Fremen are inspired by Arabs doesn't make them Arabs. This story is set 24,000 years in the future on a different planet. The amount of intermingling of populations in that amount of time would completely eradicate our current ethnic bloodlines.

Mocking the mahdi and you guys like it ????? Waowwwww .. god .. waoww,,,,

I like your hijab, my sister, may God protect you

Salam sis u should promote this via the Muslim subreddits

lol watching a few reviews of this movie, y’all do Denis Villeneuve so dirty pronouncing his name! I haven’t heard a single TH-camr do it right yet. 🤣 😅

The irony is most characters in the book; majority have deep olive skin 😅

I really loved it, the movie was great, but the pacing was really weird for me. You said that it was too slow, but with all the visions and jumping around at the start I was often confused when will the movie cut back to the character reflecting of what was in the vision, just to realise we aren't even in the vision anymore. One other thing I found too sudden is Paul's decision to go south, when all of the time until that he was set that he wouldn't go. Then when he is faced with a decision, he goes away to think and suddenly he decided that he will do it now, without very thin reasoning. All in all, it was beautiful, I enjoyed it and will read the book as soon as I get my hands over it. (Not related, but your make up is so pretty, this golden eyeshadow looks so good)

Almost nothing to criticize?? Christoper Walken belonged in the role of emperor about as much as I belonged in that role. How miscast. Farcical.

Agreed about the slowish start. Denis said that he wanted audiences who hadn’t seen the first one to be able to jump right in; the extra world building was for them.

The Fremen are basically ISIS in the Dune books. It get's very ugly in Dune Messiah.

Read the books. The style was amazing. However, the relationship of Paul and Chani is completely wrong. They are supposed to be deeply in love and Chani is at odds with him throughout the movie. So many things were cut and so many things were added in that were unnecessary.

There are multiple aspects of Islam and Arab culture presented in Dune part 1 and 2. The last hour of the movie was just intense and it really pulls you into the movie. I absolutely loved the movie and the performances. The fact that this movie really touches on the importance of Imam Mahdi and the Messiah is incredible.

I will see it a few times again, IN THE THEATER! :)

Q: Without the sacred melange Muad'dib would not have become leader of all Fremen. Without her holy experience Alia would not be Alia. A: Without your blind Fremen cruelty you would not be a priest. Ahhh, I know you Fremen. You think Muad'dib is yours because he mated with Chani, because he adopted Fremen customs. But he was an Atreides first and he was trained by a Bene Gesserit adept. He possessed disciplines totally unknown to you. You thought he brought you new organization and a new mission. He promised to transform your desert planet into a water-rich paradise. And while he dazzled you with such visions, he took your virginity! Q: Such heresy does not change the fact that the Ecological Transformation of Dune proceeds apace. A: And I committed the heresy of tracing the roots of that transformation, of exploring the consequences. That battle out there on the Plains of Arrakeen may have taught the universe that Fremen could defeat Imperial Sardaukar, but what else did it teach? When the stellar empire of the Corrino Family became a Fremen empire under Muad'dib, what else did the Empire become? Your Jihad only took twelve years, but what a lesson it taught. Now, the Empire understands the sham of Muad'dib's marriage to the Princess Irulan! Q: You dare accuse Muad'dib of sham! A: Though you kill me for it, it's not heresy. The Princess became his consort, not his mate. Chani, his little Fremen darling -- she's his mate. Everyone knows this. Irulan was the key to a throne, nothing more. Q: It's easy to see why those who conspire against Muad'dib use your Analysis of History as their rallying argument! A: I'll not persuade you; I know that. But the argument of the conspiracy came before my Analysis. Twelve years of Muad'dib's Jihad created the argument. -Dune Messiah, F. Herbert

Javier Bardem was born in the Canary Islands, and although it is a possession of Spain, it is off the coast of Morocco and the disputed territory of Western Sahara. Which is probably why he looks more like a North African/Arab than a classic European Spaniard. If you look at the cast list, there are quite a number of Arab or African origin actors playing the parts of the Fremen.

Dune Part Two is the Two Towers of Science Fiction Movies. I belive Dune Part 3 Dune Messiah is going to be Return of the King ✓

If you haven't read the novel or Dune series, you should. The amalgamation of religious traditions over the 32 000 years to the Duniverse alters beliefs more than could be grasped from the movie. As an example, the ancestors of the Fremen were ZenSunni wanderers, people of the Misr, compared to BuddIslamic varieties more widely spread across the Imperium, the Navachristianity of Chusuk, the atheistic regime of Ix and agnosticism of the Spacing Guild. Add to that the influence of the superstitions implanted by the Bene Gesserit and the mythos of Arrakis is very different to any religious teaching you may recognise. Therefore, although Dune has a number of Islamic threads sewn through it, it is not Islam as anyone living would understand. Bilal kaifa.

Did you realize that Frank Herbert also included some of the realities of Islam, such as the believers being misled into placing their faith in a normal person (false prophet), and taking that belief to a point where it spins out of control, outward to the point of //peski//ocide? Dune is also a book that warns about leadership, and the different styles of dangerous leaderships. One of these is faith-based leadership. (Another warning being related the leadership by charismatic bravado and wishful goodness, which, for example, could be reflected onto modern day non-Islamic leaders such as Canada's Justin Trudeau)

Fantastic review!

If Denis gets green lit for Dune Messiah, I will lose my mind. His vision of Dune is masterful. Big shout out to all the costume designers, production crew, gaffers, lighting crew, craft services, CGI people, set design, etc; all the behind the scenes folks who don't get credit. Y'all did amazing!!!

Thank you for this video, it was really great!! Would you make another video talking about specific areas of the film where Arab/Muslim culture could have been better represented? I would love to hear from your perspective!

That oil skating scene was ridiculous

It’s so cool seeing a Muslims perspective on film

Stumbled across your channel. Very well done review for Dune and I really can't wait to see such a fantastic film. Subscribed.

Lol, the amount of praise! But hey, the first one was amazing, so this tracks. Regarding what you mention about Arab representation... I would actually venture a guess that they deliberately avoided some of that, in order to not, well, step on any toes. But I actually kinda like everyone (all the factions, all the characters) are basically representing some people/nation/culture/religion/etc. but are then presented in the movie as... something else. I mean, it would make sense, too, after 10,000 years in space that some characteristics would shift. That's just my take on it, though. Good review, although it would maybe have been nice to hear more about your thoughts on the themes and messaging. Although that might move you into spoiler territory. Ah well.
