The Missing Gem in Scorsese's Collection

Rating: Null/10 (10 May 2012)

Take a flimsy plot , Mix it with exquisite cinematography , brilliant visual effects and a comforting background score and you will get Hugo. Hugo is not as much about its story it tries to convey as it is about the spell that Scorsese creates that transports you into some other world. Technically, Scorsese has not left any stones unturned in hes efforts to create a visual masterpiece. It goes to show the immense passion he has for Direction.
The film might not appeal to all, as its pacing is very labored . One of my friend who accompanied was cursing me after the movie. But it is a must watch for Scorsese Fans like me, who have admired and loved his work to no bounds.
