The Adventures of TinTin, Steven Spielberg's take on the popular comic book series is sheer delight and adventurous fun just in time for the Holiday season.
Directed and produced by Steven Spielberg, The Adventures of TinTin follows the title character, a young detective and his dog Snowy as they solve mysteries in Europe. The movie focuses on "The Secret of the Unicorn", a ship owned by Sir Francis. When TinTin acquires a model of the Unicorn at a local European market, he is immediately pursued by several men after the prized possession. When TinTin refuses to give them the ship, he is abducted and taken on an adventure across the seas in search of hidden treasures which the ship is suppose to lead him to.
The screenplay is well-written, with plenty of twists and turns and a mystery that will keep audiences at the edge of their seats. The animation is crisp and detailed, coming to life in several of the action-packed chase sequences as if one was sitting through a live-action Indiana Jones movie. The cast is also top-notch, featuring voice performances by Jamie Bell as TinTin, Andy Serkis as the hilarious Captain Haddock, and Daniel Craig pirate Ivan Ivanovitch.
With Pixar releasing a lackluster animated feature this year, TinTin is no doubt going to be an Oscar frontrunner this awards season. The movie is filled with intense and grappling action that leaves you wanting more when the move is over. The Adventures of TinTin is sure to be a hit come Christmas time with audiences both young and old, as a piece of one generation can now be passed down to another with this animated masterpiece.
The Adventures of TinTin will be released in theatres December 21, 2011.
