| SYNOPSIS/PLOT |
Story centers on a 12-year-old orphan named Hugo, who lives in a train station and must finish what his late father started by solving the mystery of a broken robot. Hugo Cabret (Asa Butterfield), an orphan boy living in the walls of a Paris train station, meets a girl (Chloë Moretz) who possesses the key to a machine left behind by the father he recently lost. With her help, he searches for the answer to a mystery linking a bitter old toy shop owner, a hidden message from his dead father and a mechanical man.
Based on Brian Selznick's award-winning New York Times bestseller, "The Invention of Hugo Cabret." |
| PRO REVIEWS |
----------------------------------------
"A love letter to moviemaking and his audience in 'Hugo' (...) 'Come and dream with me,' a filmmaker pleads in Martin Scorsese's exquisite fantasy "Hugo," offering an invitation that's clearly extended from Scorsese himself (...) Rating: ***** (out of five)" (Elizabeth Weitzman: New York Daily News)
----------------------------------------
"'Hugo' is unlike any other film Martin Scorsese has ever made, and yet possibly the closest to his heart: a big-budget, family epic in 3-D, and in some ways, a mirror of his own life (...) Rating: **** (out of four)" (Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times)
----------------------------------------
"Scorsese builds Hugo in the Méliès manner, creating a complete, ravishing Parisian world on a soundstage in England and reveling in the sheer transporting joy of it. Hugo will take your breath away (...) Ratin ***1/2 (out of four)" (Peter Travers: Rolling Stone)
----------------------------------------
"Gorgeous as “Hugo” is, it never feels like childhood, never delivers the terror, the sense of injustice at grown-up rules, the exhilaration of discovery when all is new (...) Rating: ** (out of four)" (Kyle Smith: New York Post)
----------------------------------------
"In attempting to make his first film for all ages, Martin Scorsese has fashioned one for the ages. Simultaneously classical and modern, populist but also unapologetically personal" (Peter Debruge: Variety)
----------------------------------------
"'Hugo' is big, and it exists mainly to dazzle, but its storytelling ambitions are more modest. I enjoyed it more than many a later Scorsese picture"
(Michael Phillips: Chicago Tribune)
