only for kids over 60 years old

Rating: 3/10 (25 December 2011)

to claim that if you like Harry Potter you would like Hugo, is like stating if you like the birds you would love Jonathan Livingston seagull. After an incredible 3D opening sequence you get the most boring nonsense since AI, If you like AI and Amelie, you'll probably like Hugo to! But there is no story worth mentioning, just a lot of beautiful pictures... And a score that allows you to sleep decently. It looked like 4 hours but just lasted 2. great cinematography and use of 3D effects is the only positive thing i can say about this movie. As an tribute to the pioneers of filmmaking it's almost an insult. And to claim it's for kids... Well i think if you need to punish one you could show it this movie, mine was begging to leave... There is absolutely nothing that it could identify with, or catch his imagingation.
