Planet Dune (2021)
5/10
Well, I thought it was an ok watch...
31 January 2022
.... for a Mockbuster. After reading reviews here I am left wondering how anyone could actually mistake this for Dune? You can easily tell just by the cover that it's obviously not. Anyone that even halfway pays attention should be able to see that. For those out there that like mockbusters, or B movies in general, this is a decent watch. Would I buy it? Nope. But as I've said many times, I almost never buy movies. Sticking mostly to various streaming services instead. So maybe the fact that I didn't actually pay for it as an individual movie gives me an easier perspective. All in all I found it completely watchable, decent acting, it moved at a good steady pace, the effects were a bit cheesy like most B movies yes, but they were better than a lot of other movies I've seen, especially from SyFy or The Asylum. I think most people that watch scifi and horror movies with any regularity know what they are getting with The Asylum.... You don't go into one of their movies expecting top shelf effects, and anyone that sees a movie thats not even a year old with a $5 or less price tag should automatically just know its obviously not going to be the blockbuster that came out the year before. Js. Its common sense. I'm not big on just any B movie, I can't even stomach most of the ones the SyFy churns out. I have seen a small handful from The Asylum that were decent though, this now being ome of them. All in all I was entertained for an hour and a half.
