Fans of Tintin do NOT watch
5 July 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Echoing most of the reviews here, if you are a fan of tintin you will find everything wrong with this film. Haddock's voice is quite grating and makes any scene with him irritating. The animation can go from decent to "what the shrek am i watching" in a short time span. The man issue with the animation is the clash of Herge's character style mixing with the studio's rendition of people. Some parts just do not look like it relates to tintin. What annoyed me a lot was Professor Calculus and the magical hearing aid, he is supposed to be deaf. It doesn't stay true much at all to the comics, despite this particular adventure. It's like someone skimmed a volume, defecated on all the character's special quirks, resealed the package and presented this garbage as a movie. I give it 2 stars instead of 1 just because some parts were hysterically bad that i forgave it. Most scenes with the Thompsons were funny, so not all the characters were butchered. But if you are a huge fan of the cartoon and comics, don't take this film seriously.
