Review: Hugo

Haven’t read the book but the movie is excellent. It’s beautiful, charming, touching and exciting.

Like I said to my lovely wife, “That’s Ben Kingsley. Ben Kingsley does two types of movies: the ones that get Oscar nominations and the ones you wish you could ‘disinvent’.” This movie is of the former category.

And also, it is always great to see Sacha Baron Cohen playing a serious and deep character and not one of his silly comedic types.

It’s interesting all the way, sports deep and involving characters and has a touching and beautiful final sequence. If you haven’t seen it yet, put it on your list. Preferably, near the top.
