New sci-fi movie replaces The Shawshank Redemption as IMDb's highest-rated film of all time

A new sci-fit movie has overtaken The Shawshank Redemption as the number one highest-rated film on IMDB - and it hasn't even been released. The Shawshank Redemption has held the number one best film spot on IMDB since 2008 when it knocked The Godfather out of its long-standing ranking of nearly 20 years. The 1994 flick has lost its crown Dune: Part Two, which has been deemed'visually thrilling' and'narratively epic' by critics days before its official release on March 1. The Warner Bros movie has a 9.4 rating on IMDB from viewers who went to an early screening of the Sci-Fi epic on Sunday, along with a 97 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Dune: Part Two is the second park in the film adaptation of Frank Herbert's first book of the same name Dune: Part Two's sudden rise in popularity is in direct contrast to The Shawshank Redemption, which was a slow burn for viewers after it tanked at the box office.
