The New Yorker gave "Dune" (2021) two negative reviews. Will the New Yorker give "Dune: Part Two" a positive review?

Question

Context: According to Rotten Tomatoes, the New Yorker gave "Dune" (2021) two different negative (i.e. rotten) reviews.

Richard Brody:

The movie's stripped-down material world correlates with a stripped-down emotional one-narrow, facile, and unambiguous.

Anthony Lane:

One's eye is at first dazzled, then sated, and eventually tired by this pitiless inflation of scale.

Resolution details:

Rotten Tomatoes will be the source to determine whether the review is positive, as well as what qualifies as a "review by the New Yorker": https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/dune_part_two

I will check Rotten Tomatoes one week after release.

If there is any positive ("fresh") review logged for the New Yorker, this resolves YES.

If there are only negative reviews, it resolves NO.

If no review has been logged by the New Yorker, I will wait until the first review is logged, and resolve it YES if that review is positive & NO if that review is negative.

If Rotten Tomatoes does not show any New Yorker review after one month, I will resolve it N/A.

Note: for "Dune" (2021), there were two reviews that qualify, but I have no idea what they'll release this time (and there only needs to be one positive review to resolve this yes).

If any scenarios for resolution are unclear, please ask.
