Special thanks to PhantomV48 for the closing animation.
The movie itself runs a bit long at 127 minutes, but Hugo is worth every minute for the visual feast it provides, and features Scorsese in probably his most delightful and elegant mood ever, especially with all of the beautiful 3-D. Good review.
Thanks, Dan. Yes, it seems to be one of the happiest Scorsese films ever, doesn’t it?
Thanks for doing this one. Great to see you coming across a movie worth reviewing, especially after the recent run of mediocre stuff.
You are welcome, Montag. I think we’re going to be hit with a bunch of good stuff here at the end of the year. It’s normal. Your doldrums hit in fall before Oscar season and then before spring. The circle of Hollywood life. :-)
