Hugo

Martin Scorsese directs Hugo and it's available in 3D. This movie got raving reviews from reviewers at IMDb and Roger Ebert himself.
Hugo (Asa Butterfield) is a boy who lives at a Paris train station after his father passed away. His father (Jude Law) was a clock maintenance guy in this train station. After his death, his uncle (Ray Winstone) made him work there. Abandoned by his uncle to live – literally – inside a gigantic clock beneath an ominously large pendulum, Hugo steals in order to survive, which brings him into conflict with one of the station’s stallholders, bad-tempered toymaker Georges (Ben Kingsley), though Hugo manages to make friends with Georges’ orphaned niece (Chloe Grace Moretz).
Hugo now wants to finish his father's work of a robot-like mechanism. Together, he and Chloe go through his father's notes and also her library to get it done.
This movie with is a must watch as it mixes brilliance, happiness, somberness and nostalgia under one roof.
