Lens Wilke From a fan of the Tintin comics, this film is mediocre. Herge was an amazing story teller, but this film strayed so far from the original comics that it's not worth the time. Captain Haddock wasn't funny in this movie, which was the element that made the books great. This animated version Haddock was just irritating to watch.Tintin was portrayed so flatly, that I didn't feel any attachment to the character.The entire film felt rushed and pieced together randomly, not fully developing any elements.Please do yourself a favour and go read the original comics.
Mihai Toma This is the story of a well known boy, Tintin, who works on an article regarding a model war ship and its history which ultimately gets him into a lot of trouble. While the ship itself is rather insignificant, it contains a secret message that leads to a priceless treasure which lays at the bottom of the sea. Together with a famous but drunk Captain, he must solve the mystery and find the missing treasure before the bad guys get to it first.It's a cliché story, featuring a bunch of stupid, idiotic and mentally retarded characters who generally try to reach their goal, if they remember which that is of course. It's as linear and as predictable as it gets, nothing and nobody from it managing to stand out of the misery. This movie has one upside, a very big one. It is absolutely superb animated, in a lot of scenes being difficult to tell the difference between it and reality.Despite this major advantage, they decided to rule out most laws of physics, a lot of mind boggling events almost shatter your intelligence. I understand that it is, despite all, an animation which isn't supposed to be realistic, but when you do everything you can to draw it as realistic as possible and tell a plausible and apparently serious story, you cannot insult the general public like that. I mean, how can you tell me that a drunk person can burp inside an empty airplane tank and give it enough fuel to continue almost as nothing happened and even after the same plane crashes into the desert, it continues to spin it's propeller although buried into the sand...It leaves you speechless. The finale is as stupid as the rest of the movie, leaving room for an upcoming sequel, unfortunately.To sum it up, a stupid movie in every single way which receives five stars from me only because of its gorgeous appearance and nothing else. A huge disappointment!

Filipe Neto This digital animated film recreates one of the most famous stories of the comic Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn. Directed by Steven Spielberg, produced by Peter Jackson, with soundtrack of John Williams and a script by Steven Moffat, Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish, the film features the voices of Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis, Daniel Craig, and other voice actors.I was never an avid reader of Tintin, but the comic strip was, for me, a good company during childhood and adolescence (still is, sometimes). But I never had a good impression of films based on comic-strips, as always end too stylized or unrealistic. In this case, keeping the film as an animation, I was waiting for something like the comic, and many similarities with the magazine. But my expectations were far from being met by this film, which does not seem able to capture the essence of Tintin. The script, despite being good and consistent to the cinema, don't link to the comic where it was based. On the contrary, it almost rejects it by mixing elements of another magazine and invent many other things that don't fit in the Tintin image, issued by magazines. Therefore, characters seem rather forced, and their reactions don't seem true to what might be expected in the magazines.The dubbing work looks very good, I didn't notice delays or errors. Most of voice actors used here are seasoned actors, with an excellent voice modulation capability, knowing well how to put voice to achieve the desired effect. The work of animation and visual effects are excellent, very colorful and striking. Its the wonder of digital animation. The soundtrack is very good but I expected something more intense.Overall, the film is quite interesting and entertaining but becomes boring at certain times and almost can't create a real sense of mystery, suspense and adventure.
