Dune
review
Synopsis
The planet Arrakis is the only planet where the immortal drug Melange is produced, and the Emperor is plotting a conspiracy to gain control over it. The Space Guild's navigator senses this and visits the Emperor to question him. The Emperor was envious of Duke Leto Atreides, who had developed a weapon called the "Module" that amplified voices and destroyed matter, and after giving him Arrakis, he tried to provoke Baron Harkonnen, who was an enemy of the Duke, into his downfall. . However, the Navigator believes that the Duke's son, Paul Atreides, is a threat to them and orders his assassination. The Duke family descends on Arrakis and is attacked by an army arranged by Baron Harkonnen, and flees into the desert with his mother Jessica. The two join a group of Fremen, the natives of Arrakis, and give them modules to form a large army. Paul controls a giant sandworm and destroys Baron Harkonnen's army one after another. Paul eventually becomes a superhuman by drinking the "Water of Life" passed down by the Fremen, and challenges the Emperor to a final battle.
