Jeezus! I've had it with this dude! Goodfellows? Yeah. Casino? double yeah! And then Gangs of New York, overblown piece of crap, but cleaning up at the Academy Awards? I mean I understand this guy is Hollywood royalty, he's been persistent if nothing else, but I am getting gun-shy going to see his movies. But then he makes Boardwalk Empire, so I forgive him again. Then today I am sitting through 206 minutes of Hugo, and right about into the first 40 minutes I want to throttle the guy or get my money back. Was this supposed to be heartwarming or slapstick, or what? I don't get it. And what was it with that train obsession? Three times coming at full throttle into the station? Trains don't do that. Don't they have production managers calling him on this crap? Or does nobody dare to speak up to him? Ok, I admit the best part was the speech in honor of George Méliès and the early celluloid movie making days, which would have been a great 10 minute documentary. Hey, there is an idea for Martin Scorcese, make documentaries and quit going going all poetic on me. Next time he makes a movie I am going to read ALL the critiques. Anyway, Hugo blows! ... in my humble opinion. Grrrr!
