Title: Cue the flying monkeys
Product review: I really enjoyed Hugo. This movie is quirky and VERY slow paced but it is also deliciously stylized and intelligently written. A visually sumptuous, steam-punked homage to the golden age of silent film, the central story line, a child's odyssey of discovery, felt a bit reminiscent of the Wizard of Oz. When well done, and this was, that is a very good thing. Like that classic, this movie would at first seem to be an ideal kid's movie but Hugo's upsetting themes and slow build suggest otherwise.
