What to Know

Critics Consensus

Grounded by reliably terrific performances from Emily Watson and Olivia Williams, Dune: Prophecy lacks the spice of Denis Villeneuve's films but compensates with addictively perilous palace intrigue.

Carol Midgley Times (UK) Even if you’re a Dune nerd, I bet it will be complicated. Needlessly so, some might say. Rated: 3/5 Nov 27, 2024 Full Review Phillip Maciak The New Republic On its own terms, Dune: Prophecy is a fine show. It’s filled with excellent performances, dank but compelling production design, and intriguing little twists and turns. But it feels hemmed in by its status as a prequel. Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Gayle Sequeira The Hollywood Reporter No show whose description entails the term “space witches” should ever be this dull. Nov 23, 2024 Full Review Chris Revelle Pajiba A generic genre drama with so much nothing happening that it fails to be appreciably Dune in plot or presentation. Dec 6, 2024 Full Review James Delingpole The Spectator While fantasy has never looked more spectacularly realised and life-like, the standards of plotting, dialogue and character have rarely felt so dire. Dec 5, 2024 Full Review Miles Surrey The Ringer What we’re left with, then, is a show that reminds you of bigger and better things -- and what Prophecy does bring to the equation isn’t exactly revelatory.

Bubble L 3eps in and I am enjoying it but its very up and down. Some threads are great others not so great. Might be a GOT or Expanse experience where you only appreciate the maginitude of what you are watching by the end of the first season. Or it will just continue to jump from good to average. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review Maximilian I As of this review i've watched episodes 1-4. This show is in my opinion one of the best of this year. It has an extremely intriguing story which makes every moment of the show exciting despite the lack of "action". The sci-fi aspects of the show are also quite interesting. The show simply looks amazing too. All the places, costumes, visual effects etc. are movie level and on par with the movies of the franchise. If you enjoy story driven shows then this is the show for you, especially if you left theatres wanting more earlier this year after seeing Dune Part 2. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review Dennis V Great show! If your a dune fan or not. This show has it all. It really opens up the possibilities for future dune sci fi projects. The dune story covers more than 20k years and this show really kicks everything off after the war against the thinking machines. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review George H Dune: Prophecy is amazing, characters either depth, sufficient tension but not over-lagging to such a degree you find yourself exhausted by dialogue. A must watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Jessica Z This is the first tv show in a while, which I find to be captvating and with smart twists planted into the storyline. The sets are magnificent. I would definitely like to see a second season! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Steve T Stunning visuals and the strength of Emily Watson and Olivia Williams hold this otherwise simplistic and trashy prequel together. The source material inspiring the series is weak in itself so this is not built on strong foundations, further hamstrung by lacklustre acting from the rest of the cast and their skin deep relationships. It's at times painful to watch the legacy of Frank Herbert come to this - Game of Thrones meets Terminator. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Read all reviews
