Omg i can't remember being this bored before during a film. Really didnt expect this from director Scorcese...nuff said!! Scorcese has about 3-4 different films in my top 20 list of all time that's why i was shocked. Even more shocked that Sacha Baron Cohen signed on to do this film as i have so much respect for him comedy wise! Anyhow my kids all enjoyed it and i guess that was Scorcese's target audience in the first place.

Artful, bold and beautiful film

Hugo is a film, that is intended to recognise a great film maker, Georges Milies, a French illusionist turned film maker. His visions and an art of drawing pics and incorporating them into films, were trend base for current use of special effects. The effective screenplay from Logan, and craft piece direction from Scorsese is brilliant. Ben Kingsley is terrific as Milies. A small boy Hugo Cabret played by Butterfield is working hard to discover his father’s secret. Scorsese knows the way to display the film. He uses the best technical staff and delivers a masterpiece. Recollecting, Scorsese’s Shutter Island, and the aviator, he is a director with a vision. Hugo hits emotions and recognizes every character. I can call this a beautiful film.
The plot begins, with a small boy Hugo who work...

Magical!!!

A truly magical movie! Going into this I had no expectations at all, in fact I knew absolutely nothing about this film. I think this gets the award for my surprise film of 2011. It was fantastic and it just proves the Martin Scorcese is one of the greatest directors of this time or any time. He is a master of his craft. I love the realization on the children's faces when they realize who Isabelle's (Chloe Grace Moretz) Godfather really is. Best foreshadowing goes to the theatre scene, when the children are watching Fred C. Newmeyer and Sam Taylor's famous clock scene from their 1923 film starring Harold Lloyd "Safety Last." Then, later in the film Hugo (Asa Butterfield) has to re-enact it. One complaint about the scenes involving Melies' as a director, according to Wikipedia (take ...

Tomorrow! 11-23-11 for those not only a daily schedule. I'm still not sure if Scorsese can pull off "whimsical" - just between you, me and anyone reading this post - I'd rather watch The Muppets.

Yeah I don't know. Just looks boring to me. Hopefully the acting and the story are not overly dramatic. When does it come out?

It's Martin Scorsese - this has "Oscar contender" written all over it, even if it appears to be more family accessible. I haven't made up my mind whether I really want to watch it in theaters. If the word it good, I'll probably hit it up before the year is out.
