Hugo is Brilliant

Rating: 8/10 (23 November 2011)

Martin Scorsese creates a world in Hugo, it has the exact same feel as the book did a couple years ago. Brilliant cinematography, excellent acting, humorous at times, sad at times, and the music was perfect. Scorsese's world is a world you don't want to leave. From watching gears turn in the inside of a clock to a mechanical man drawing a picture, Hugo is just plain brilliant. It's one of the few movies where the 3D actually works, it adds to the effects, to the cinematography, it's not just a gimmick to appeal to the masses, it helps the whole feel. The camera shots were excellent using many shots that you don't see often in movies. Hugo is a magical movie for kids and adults.
