"Dune," the 2021 film directed by Denis Villeneuve, is a visually stunning and faithful adaptation of Frank Herbert's classic novel. Compared to the 1984 film adaptation, Villeneuve's version is much more true to the book's intricate plot and complex themes.

One of the most significant differences between the two adaptations is the level of detail and depth given to the characters and their relationships. The 2021 film takes the time to fully develop the characters, their motivations, and their connections to each other, while the 1984 film often feels rushed and lacks nuance in its portrayal of the characters.

Additionally, the 2021 film captures the grandeur and scale of Herbert's universe in a way that the 1984 film falls short. The special effects and cinematography are stunning, creating a vivid and immersive world that feels true to the book.

Overall, "Dune" (2021) is a must-see for fans of the book and newcomers to the story alike. Its dedication to capturing the essence of Herbert's work sets it apart from the earlier adaptation and solidifies it as a modern classic.
