Tintin and Sakharine have one each and the villain intends to use the glass-shattering top Cs of operatic soprano the. Haddock tells Tintin that over three hundred years earlier his ancestor Sir Francis Haddock was forced to scuttle the original Unicorn when attacked by a piratical forebear of Sakharine but he managed to save his treasure and provide clues to its location in three separate scrolls, all of which were secreted in models of the Unicorn. Sakharine has bribed the crew to revolt against the ship's master, drunken Captain Haddock, but Tintin, Snowy and Haddock escape, arriving in Morocco at the court of a sheikh, who also has a model of the Unicorn. Sakharine should be so eager to buy it from him, resorting to murder and kidnapping Tintin - accompanied by his marvellous dog Snowy - to join him and his gang as they sail to Morocco on an old cargo ship. Racing to uncover the secrets of a sunken ship that may hold a vast fortune, but also an ancient curse, Tintin and his loyal dog Snowy embark on an action-packed journey around the world that critics are calling.Having bought a model ship, the Unicorn, for a pound off a market stall Tintin is initially puzzled that the sinister Mr. From Academy Award® winning filmmakers, Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson, comes the epic adventures of Tintin.
![]() ![]() The Adventures Of Tintin 2011 Cast Movie A RatherWhile it could seem like a lot of material for a whole movie, the choice of blending those three (two and a half) stories together turns out giving the movie a rather perfect pacing.To kill a double controversy in the making, and like I've already read in a couple critics: Tintin has always been a "bland" character in the comics. Its beginning takes root in "Le Crabe aux Pinces D'or", while the rest of the movie revolves around the two-albums story of the hunt for Rakham the Red's treasure, "Le Secret de la Licorne" and "Le Trésor de Rakham le Rouge". Spielberg and Jackson and all the team behind the adaptation obviously gave the original material the love and respect it deserved, while making it their own.To clarify the origins of the story itself, you have to know that it isn't the adaptation of one, but three Tintin comics. I could take the role of the harcore comics fan who despises the adaptation, or the rabid Spielby fan forgiving everything.Thankfully, after having the chance to see it before most people out here in Belgium and everywhere else thanks to a journalist buddy, I found out I can to be none of the above.Far from a being just a comical sidekick, Haddock is the human counterpart to the flawless hero that Tintin is (remember, this is a comic, originally aimed at kids and older kids). Haddock is the dark side of Tintin, prone to anger and shouting insults, hard drinker, natural born loser. It is actually the reason for the appearance of Captain Haddock after a few albums. Tintin as a character has his limits, dramatically speaking, and even Hergé knew that. None of them ever showed Tintin doing actual reporter work. That's all the comics ever told us about him. Tintin is a reporter, that's all you need to know. But none of that nonsense here. Shreenathji na bhajan in gujaratiI had more doubts about the transition from Hergé's "Ligne Claire" type of drawing to CGI's and even more so to the use of 3D. It was only obvious they wouldn't touch the spirit of what's considered a classic worldwide. It will be held against them, but that will be coming from people who don't know the original material.But I somehow had little worries about that, honestly. Hergé never needed more, kudos for the guys behind this movie for keeping true to that. Tintin just finds himself where adventure is. The varied 2D, celluloid adventures of Tintin always bugged me, because of that transition from the seemingly simple but incredibly dynamic looks of the books, looking so wrong when brought to animated life. In fact it's the cartoons that bred those doubts in me. Not that I'm adverse to CGIs, mind. Chinese tpo toeflOne that has true respect for the original material, and the great ambition of adding something to it. Managed to deal a great adaptation. It simply looks stunning, and your mind easily jumps back and forth between forgetting these are cartoon characters and appreciating their transition to a 3D environment, respectful of the original designs but literally bringing them to life.In short, all these elements drew me to the same conclusion, Spielby and co. But in the end you have a movie that can be appreciated both by fans of the comics as well as people who have "just heard about them". Shortcuts are taken, and as true to their originals as they are, the characters have been redesigned. "Le Crabe aux Pinces D'or" could have deserved a whole movie. You know, that other Belgian comics adaptation that took the little blue dudes from their tiny corner of European medieval forest to. If that's what you like, note, there's been that Smurf thing, recently (another childhood favourite). And most of all, you can go see it without having to worry about seeing another piece of Hollywood-flavoured perversion, a fast-foodified betrayal. ![]() Its hard to explain, watch the film and you will know exactly what I mean.However, the film is not just a visual feast like many films are. There are scenes of fights and chases which are so creative and so imaginative, the way he uses angles and the way everything links on is a real joy to watch. You will understand what i mean when you see the movie. As i said earlier I am sorry I didn't go and see this in the cinema as it really would have been a fantastic experience. A very original adventure/quest film, searching for hidden treasure and defeating the bad guys along the way!I cannot recommend this film enough, i was so surprised by just how good it was.
