"Hugo" hits the screens as one of the best movies to see in 3D. Director Martin Scorsese has received overwhelming attention for his ability to integrate color, composition, acting and camera movement into beautiful 3D filmmaking.
Twelve-year-old Hugo Cabret (Asa Butterfield) is forced to survive in the walls of a train station in Paris after his father passes away. Left by his father is a mechanical mystery within a wind-up machine, known as an automan. After fixing the automan, Hugo is missing the final piece, a heart shaped key, to reveal a message from his father. Around every corner, Hugo is led closer and closer to solving the mystery.
George Melies (Ben Kingsley) has been missing filmmaking, a huge part of his life. Little does he know, Hugo, whom he hasn't been very pleasant to, helps bring back the desire for film and also becomes more than just a friend. Scorsese does a tremendous job on connecting the characters to one another as each one needs the other to solve a puzzle and bring about a sense of joy and compassion.
In the beginning after his father passes, Hugo has to care for himself. To eat, he took food from where ever he could find it within the train station. He eventually comes face to face with the Train Inspector (Sacha Baron Cohen) who catches the boy and attempts to arrest him for theft and trespassing. Since Hugo is under age, his parents would be liable; however, he has no parents and is threatened with being placed in a boys home.
After Hugo escapes, he attempts to do what he feels is ethically right, to bring the automan back to the original creator, George. George is overwhelmed but inspired at the same time. This act brings about George's morals and what he thinks is the right thing to do, to adopt Hugo as a new member of the family.
Not only are the characters great, but the use of 3D is breathtaking. Every shot is meant to grab the audience's attention to enjoy a magnificent display of art. It inspires the imagination and sparks a sense of magic. The plot, set in a train station in Paris, perfected the creation of pictures that tend to stick with the audience throughout the movie and thereafter. This movie couldn't be more visually appealing.
