Idk I'm pretty sensitive to kiked messaging and I didn't come away with that at all.
While I haven't read the books, my impression from other reviews were that it stayed pretty true to them. I don't think it needs to stay true to the David Lynch version. I didn't notice a BLM message, everything seemed plot appropriate from what I know of the books. The fremen being sandniggers makes plenty of sense without it being forced and woke, they come from a world of sand and the fact they're a completely different people and culture is central to the story. There were a few blacks in the cast that you could tell were added for diversity but they weren't written in a woke way, they showed appropriate deference to their leader like everyone else and didn't have the woke stench of acting smug or self-important like you usually see in kiked media.
There are aspects of the story itself that are iffy, like themes of the noble savage, evil colonizers, and "can't we all just get along" but those were themes from the original story right? I don't see how you can get rid of them without making it no longer Dune and I didn't get the sense they were ramped up at all for the movie.
