Final Verdict: This is the only perfect score I’ve given in To 3D or Not To 3D, and I don’t imagine I’ll be giving another one any time soon. The 3D in Hugo isn’t just masterfully executed, and it doesn’t just enhance every beautiful shot in the film. It’s integral to understanding the film, the way it hearkens back to the earliest days of cinema, the way it talks about magic tricks and new technology as new ways of telling cinematic stories. Martin Scorsese probably understands movies better than anyone on earth, and he’s proven that 3D can be as important as color or CGI. You owe it to yourself to see how well he proves it.
