That scene does its job in explaining that there are sinister motives in giving the planet to atreides and that its basically a trap.
I guess what I specifically feel is glossed over a little too much is the relationship between Leto and the Emperor and why the latter feels threatened. From what I understand, the book does a better job of exploring that.
Either way I'd prefer the way they did it over boring exposition, so it's a minor nitpick.
