Cel G As a longtime fan of the Dune universe, I found Dune: Prophecy season 1 to be a remarkable achievement. The writing is sharp and compelling, the visual effects and cinematography are breathtaking. The cast delivers outstanding performances across the board, bringing depth and nuance to their roles. The narrative unfolds with intelligence, complexity and subtlety, weaving in twists that keep the tension alive and the viewer fully engaged. It’s difficult to reconcile such quality with the surprisingly low rating on Rotten Tomatoes—especially when far less accomplished shows often receive inflated praise. I eagerly look forward to season 2. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/15/25 Full Review Dana Z Well this show is dull and a miss. Unfortunately, not good! Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/06/25 Full Review Bas V Great actors. And i love to see the back story. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/25/25 Full Review Johann D. M PROMISING AND INTRIGUING!!!! Set in Frank Herbert's Dune universe, 10,000 years before the events of the films, and based on the Great Schools of Dune trilogy, this series explores the origins of the Bene Gesserit—a powerful socio-political and religious order whose members wield extraordinary abilities gained through years of rigorous mental and physical training. At its heart are two Harkonnen sisters, caught in a struggle against looming forces that threaten the future of humankind. With exceptional and meticulous world-building and richly developed characters, the series leans into its palace intrigue to great effect. The performances are strong across the board, with Emily Watson and Olivia Williams standing out as morally ambiguous figures who challenge traditional notions of power and virtue. The visual effects are striking, the costume and set design is sumptuous, and the slow-burning narrative structure rewards viewers who invest their attention episode by episode. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Frans B Stunning interpretation of a prequel. I would not say it "lacks the spice" of Villeneuve's Dune, quite the contrary. You need to concentrate in this series and pay attention. If you are a Dune aficionado, this is right up your alley. Intricate, very cleverly written and brought to production. Intriguing to say the least. The whole stellar cast is highly capable and very convincing in character. Absolutely brilliant Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/15/25 Full Review Chris C It's a good show but it is one of those shows you need to actually watch to understand what is going on. Other shows you can miss a episode and watch recap and your caught up, not this show. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/14/25 Full Review Read all reviews
