nevertheless has freed Spielberg from the shackles of conventional filmmaking and physical limitations.

Steven Spielberg has his very own story to tell Nickelodeon kids and average moviegoers. His story actually works for an average Nickelodeon and Paramount movie.

WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: Just like the comics, it might also be a little hard to follow (especially for youngsters) and the characters don't get as much attention as the action does.
VERDICT: A fast-paced thrill ride well worth a watch, especially for the original Tintin fans. It's a great bit of fun from Spielberg.… Expand

Inspired by the famous graphic novel of Belgian origin, it has a flavor of those adventure movies of the type Indiana Jones, always respecting the spirit of the characters. With another type of animation, he could well start a saga.

This movie was great. The animation was excellent, and the voice acting was good. The story was very enjoyable, but it felt a little slow at times. I think the characters are great too. I recommend this movie.

I found all the characters to be well played. Also if you read the comics, something which is always off to me, is that Tintin should be this over the top journalist/detective, but sometimes he falls for the most obvious traps. This was luckily not translated in this adaption. I really hope for a sequel.… Expand

The plot doesn't feel very original, but it is still very entertaining, with great action, mystery, and twists. The animation is shockingly real and animated at the same time. The humor is really great and laugh-out loud funny at times. I have seen this movie quite a few times, and honestly wouldn't mind watching it a few more times.… Expand

Surprisingly awesome. I didn't know anything about the Tintin franchise going into this movie and still had a blast. Spielberg directs this motion-capture roller coaster ride beautifully.

It's exciting, intelligent, and hilarious, and I'm really bummed they never went ahead with this trilogy, especially since Peter Jackson, who helped finance this one, was set to direct part 2.

"The Adventures of Tintin" is not one of the best films directed by Steven Spielberg, but it's another great job in his repertoire. Highlight for Andy Serkis, who does a great performance as Captain Haddock.

Una buena película de aventuras con una muy peculiar animación, que mezcla modelos de personajes y entornos hiperrealistas con el clásico toque cartoon y acciones cartoon representadas de manera realista. Única en ese aspecto.

Especial atención al magnífico plano secuencia de pura acción que oscila hacia el final de la cinta. Noto que es un metraje centrado mucho más a un público juvenil / adolescente que a los más pequeños de la casa. Recomendada.… Expand

This is a CGI action adventure film (with more of an emphasis on adventure I'd say), with some comedy aspects and it covers themes including treasure, murder, clumsiness and battles. I have to say I was taken aback by the quality of the CGIThis is a CGI action adventure film (with more of an emphasis on adventure I'd say), with some comedy aspects and it covers themes including treasure, murder, clumsiness and battles. I have to say I was taken aback by the quality of the CGI featured in this film - I wouldn't say its entirely impossible to realise its not genuine live action but at the same time, its a lot better than the CGI we may have seen glimpses of in films, say, 20-30 years ago. On the down side, the ground looked clearly fake, with cobblestones all appearing very much flat but on the plus side, peoples faces seemed much more believable/realistic, with sunlight shone over many parts of their bodies and items shown from various angles, as if im a sort of 3D form. You can all but see individual hairs on Tintins head and the soft fur on Snowys coat, so I was quite impressed with that. The characters skin does look a bit suspiciously smooth but I still felt the quality of the CGI overall was better than a lot of what I've seen. I should perhaps say at this point that the film was released in 2011, so its already over 5 years old. The plot is quite intriguing - I remember reading Tintin stories as a child, many years ago in the early 1990s I suppose (alongside Asterix and Obelix and the like) but I don't think I've seen any other such film adaptation of the character. The pretty impressive CGI did make it more engrossing for me. I found Snowys behaviour quite endearing, reminding me a bit of how our dog at home acts herself. The film is surprisingly dark in tone at times, especially considering its a PG film but I imagine its the kind of film that could quite easily keep slightly older kids watching - very young viewers may find it mildly frightening but, moreso, perhaps a little boring, as the plot pace is a little slow and it isn't exactly permanently chock full of action scenes either.

Cast wise, the film features contributions from the following well known actors, who voice the various characters - Jamie Bell as the titular character, Tintin, Andy Serkis as Captain Haddock, Daniel Craig as Sakharine, Nick Frost as Thomson and Simon Pegg as Thompson (the Thompson twins being regular characters in the Tintin comics - rather incompetent detectives originally from London). The voices were all quite good, sounding quite realistic and I'd say they helped draw me further in to the film in general.

The music present is pretty much what you'd expect of such a film, or perhaps moreso what you'd expect of a Steven Spielberg film, with many instrumentals heared, indeed orchestras are heavily present. Its also worth baring in mind that this film is set in the past and not the present day. I don't believe the film actually states what year, or even decade, its set in but if I had to guess, I'd say its set around about the 1920s or 1930s, thereabouts.

Content wise, the film contains numerous depictions of violence, of course this is a comic violence, in as much as its not real live action but it could still be frightening for young viewers. There are many gun shots and blood smears are shown ocassionally but there is little in the way of detailed or graphic extended scenes of injuries and the like. There are various chase type scenes with our hero trying to escape certain situations, which younger viewers may find either thrilling or somewhat frightening perhaps. One of the characters is shown drinking alcohol to excess and smoke. As mentioned, the film may frighten very young viewers and due to this, its been given a PG rating. While the plot is a bit slow at one or points, I also felt that it was a bit complicated as well, which may well frustrate some, younger, viewers, I'd imagine. I found the first half of the film to be a lot more engaging and intriguing than the 2nd half and I admit that I found myself a bit disinterested and not as engaged with it as I was at the start of the film. I'm (believe it or not) not a child though and I do reckon that this film is quite good for younger viewers - overall I feel the 4 star rating is about right, so im sticking with that but also admitting that it didn't especially engage me during the last quarter of the film or thereabouts.

Yes I'd recommend this, as I felt it was a somewhat surprisingly engrossing watch, with a good use of CGI and some decent examples of voice acting. It is a bit slow, plot pace wise and the plot itself is somewhat complicated but its an enjoyable watch regardless, so I'd recommend it on that basis.… Expand

A clean, compact film that perfectly illustrates Tintin comics. But it does not have enough potential and does not entertain the viewer as much.

Amazing motion caprute, very funny and exciting, but underrated. The world needs to see a sequel to Tintin. Let him become his "Indiana" in the world of animation!
