Reviewing Scorsese's 'Hugo'
'Hugo' is a moving family blockbuster that was done in a lot of thought. It is truly spellbinding from start to finish and it is set in nature that is heartbreaking and heart warming all in one.
The movie was directed masterfully and played out well by a multi-generational cast that despite the involvement of so much technicalities when it comes to wizardry effects, it still was able to display itself pure.
'Hugo' was adapted from the novel written by Brian Selznick entitled 'The Invention of Hugo Cabret.' It focuses on the story of an orphan who lives in a train station in Paris during the 1930s. The lead decides to fix his late father's mechanical invention after becoming tired eventually on surviving through thievery.
Scorsese made it best by using the sweet depiction of Paris as a place and as his canvas for his film masterpiece. The amazing implementation of 3D effects helps in the further improvement of the movie aside from being a distraction to the narrative.
Apart from all these praise, it also has its own flaws. It would make you feel a bit lull during the scenes of the dog and mouse plus the dream sequences; maybe because they were not given a lot of relevance through its narrative. But the entire story was able to reshift your bored focus to the meat of the story that Hugo tells.
The presence of Ben Kingsley adds so much depth to the movie along with Helen McCrory who also stood out playing the role of his wife. Christopher Lee's presence as the bookshop owner also sends in a lot of weight and drama to it.
Overall, 'Hugo' is another successful film from Scorsese as it is highly entertaining and truly educational. A lot of filmmakers in the future can use this film as their inspiration to do great films in the coming future.
