I really enjoyed it though a break in the three hours would have been nice. They left out some things but it didn't hurt the movie while including something I don't recall from previous versions or the book. Namely some carnivorous companions to Feyd. They didn't play a large part in the movie so it's not really a spoiler but I guess it's one way of showing how he's more than a bit sociopathic. They also went for a different sort of look for Feyd Ruatha but I guess it fits in with Batista's look and their father's look. The fighting scenes weren't bad but did lack proper follow through with the shields as while they did show the slow penetration of a shield in one fight in the larger fight scenes we got the glimmer of shields but the swords/knives were clearly passing through the shields at full speed. Of course the film ended up with the proper setup for a 3rd movie which I understand they are already looking at various locations. What did you watch?
