I went to see Hugo with my SIL & brother. They insisted we see it in 3-D as that was "integral to the plot". WHich meant paying through the nose and going to a theater I don't care for. I enjoyed the movie, was surpised because I really thought it was going to be all animated. But afterwards, discussing the movie on the way home, it was like we had seen 2 different films. I thought the 3-D was completely unneccesary, and it did nothing for the movie. It was a nice movie about a man, a boy and family and how they are found or made. They felt that the movie itself was a huge homage to the history of the movie industry culminating in the 3-D technology, and the boy and girl and man were incidental.
