While paying tribute, can you tell a good story?

The foreplay was already procrastinating, and when Hugo's dad was engulfed in flames, I thought I had grasped the gist of the film: this is a new version of "The Prince's Revenge," right? Just waiting for our lovely little Zhengtai Hugo to show off the adventurous spirit of ghosts and spirits, smash the cocoons, punish the evil and promote the good, and bring the murderer of his father to justice. He died inexplicably, and he didn't even show us a whole corpse.)
As a result, the actor Xiao Yuguo, whose name was used as the title of the film, was completely reduced to a supporting role in the second half. That fierce old man, I know the director will definitely It will let him have a story, but it won't be a purpose and a tribute to Mérieux. It's not a biopic. Hugo, who was misused by the director, did not reveal the secret of his father's tragic death. "Open" old man Merieux's bravery, (can I sue the director for abusing minors?), the so-called pertinent thing is that when old man Mei gave a speech on stage, he mentioned the achievements of Hugo, but he did not mention the man who made the robot. Hugo's father, this father is really a big trick.
The procrastination in this film is almost everywhere. For example, in the scene where the stool was turned over the box, I knew that the stool would always be overturned, and neither of these two and a half-old children wanted to flatten the cushion? That old man, who later learned that Bird was a master and a film pioneer, but for quite a long time, he was a bad old man, inexplicably waiting to grab Hugo's notebook (just because it had a robot drawn on it? Or to punish the rain? Theft of fruit?), and tricked a poor child into ashes with a handkerchief, and his deeds were by no means a good man; so did the lame policeman, who wrote a lot of space about his ferocity. The difficulty of "adventure"? And the cold-faced robot, who originally thought it had a great secret on it, but it turned out to be just a "single-needle plotter", and it had to be the heroine's heart-shaped key to provide powerful "power"? Hugo also has the plot of Duan Xue's 39 steps hanging on the hands of the big clock, is it interesting? I've already forgotten why he hung up...
I wanted to give it two stars, after all, there is a dazzling long shot of the screen (although there is suspicion of dazzling skills), but I will deduct one star for those who pretend to force the criminals to say that we have no culture, and I don’t know the one who died in the second year of the full-scale Anti-Japanese War. Director Mériere, in fact, there are many feigned perpetrators who may not even know the year of the Anti-Japanese War, but this does not prevent them from admiring Mériere after Baidu Encyclopedia and giving Hugo 5 stars...
Of course I am I don't object to paying tribute to the master, but, after all, this is a feature film called Hugo (I really don't have any expectation of watching a magic blockbuster). !
Digression: One of Merieux's historical credits is that he enriched the films of the Lumiere brothers, who only made "documentary films" of life scenes such as "train entry" and "factory gate", while May The director has filmed....... My question is: although the film technology is only more than 100 years old, isn't stage drama a lot longer and more mature? Why did Brother Lumiere or Director Mae begin Haven't thought to point the camera at the mature stage drama art to faithfully record? Please ask the friends of the film class to explain the doubts here...
