Why do people hate Dune (1984) so much?

I reckon it's one of my favourite movies of all time. As far as I know, it was universally panned by critics, they hated it. I'm genuinely curious as to why... I will say that some terms in the movie needed explaining, like "Bene Gesserit", but otherwise I loved it.

Also, what are your opinions on the movie? Do you have any observations?
