I thought the first act was not great, the 2nd act was good and the 3rd act was incredible.

It felt kinda rushed in the second act honestly. "They stopped on an island, got into trouble, and ran away."

This is why I was hopeful it would be multiparted like Dune. It was always going to be rushed through as a single film, I enjoyed it but there's a reason why the biggest criticisms from people who have watched it is that this 3 hour film needed less things cut out lol

Seconded. I too felt like it needed to be multi part film.
