This was a blast from start to finish, in my opinion. Great characters with great lines, executed very well. Chemistry was right on.
So often a movie turns out to be worse than the trailer, but this one delivered more than I expected. Not quite Bridesmaids, but not too far behind.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

An enjoyable romp through Middle Earth. Not as majestic and epic as the LOTR trilogy, but a fun chance to revisit the world. A bit uneven in temperament and a little bloated, but still a good time.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Surprisingly wonderful

My son and I went to Hugo with only a vague sense of what it was about, and were thoroughly enchanted by what it turned out to be. We found it very engaging, thoughtful and entertaining, while being happily immersed in the richly textured world created by the film.
I thought my son would enjoy it, but I came away even more delighted than he was. What a welcome treat!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Mildly entertaining

Didn't need to leave the theater groaning, but only mildly entertaining. Too bad such a touching, quirky story got reduced to glossy pablum as a movie. Getting very tired of attractive white family with two perfect kids living in extreme luxury. Nothing too interesting about that. Story was ridiculous in a tiring way. My 8 year-old son loved it though, and that was all that mattered on Father's Day.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Inspired, outrageous fun, with brilliant skewering of a multitude of classic cinema icons. I reveled in the non-linear unfolding of a truly engaging and entertaining tale.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
