Adventures of Tintin (G) 7.5

The Adventures of Tintin (2011): ntrepid reporter Tintin and Captain Haddock set off on a treasure hunt for a sunken ship commanded by Haddock's ancestor. (7.5)

Director: Steven Spielberg
Writers: Steven Moffat, Edgar Wright, Joe Cornish (screenplay); Hergé (comic book series)
Stars: Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis and Daniel Craig

I had read, no, poured through the Tintin comics as a kid and I still own the entire set. It is a pleasure to see this movie that is so true to the comic drawings. The director and the animators have gone to great lengths to get it right. They must have used the comic books as the picture-boards for the movie. A lot of the time, when you watch a re-creation of something you remember as perfect from your childhood, you are disappointed; not in this case. This movie actually improves upon the original series. I Loved it.  Highly recommend this movie (and the comic book series). My Rating: 7.5
