So today I went to see Hugo.
May I just say, it was a dang good movie!
But before I get to the movie...
Oh my gosh.
Did you start crying?
This was one of the previews before Hugo, and I had no idea that they were re-releasing it!
I actually started tearing up and almost started sobbing.
During the preview.
I am so excited!! I will be there opening day, watching it, crying my eyes out.
Titanic = one of the best movies in the history of movies.
So. Hugo.
I think it was almost more fun going to see this movie without a clue as to what it is about. I was expecting something quite different.
Cinematically speaking, I'll say a few things.
The acting was very good. Ben Kingsley, Christopher Lee, and Jude Law were all a nice choice. They're all amazing actors. Chloe Moretz was also quite good. Asa Butterfield, who played Hugo? Very talented. I had known him from other movies, but just ignored thinking about it. Looked them up.
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. He was in that tear-jerker? Quite so.
And Merlin. You probably have no what that show is - only us die-hard fans of British sci-fi/fantasy would know.
So the acting was wonderful.
The story line was very interesting. I went into the theater expecting an adventure, possibly with some sci-fi or fantastical stuff thrown in.
I left the theater having seen a beautiful mystery and drama.
I left satisfied and happy. (And you can't beat that!)
And not being a fan of 3-D films, I was quite impressed with this one. I could actually stand it and see what was happening.
All in all, this movie was moving, funny, interesting, and a bit scary or creepy at times. I discovered at the end that Johnny Depp had produced it - and I could see a bit of him in some aspects.
So if you haven't already seen Hugo (even though it came out over a month ago), I highly recommend it.
Just do it.
Cheers♥
