Thoughts on every movie I've ever seen.

Hugo (2011)

Directed by Martin Scorsese

Starring Ben Kingsley, Sacha Baron Cohen, Asa Butterfield, Chloƫ Grace Moretz

Author

An homage to early cinema, and a nice rendition of 1930’s Paris, but for what? It’s more a slice of life than a story worth telling. Nice effects and lots of gliding camerawork, but there’s just not much to it.

Why do they have English accents? This isn’t Dickens.

Quite a departure for Scorsese.
