When I went to see Tintin I had high hopes, you'd have to looking a the people behind it (Steven Spielberg, Peter Jackson and Edgar Wright, among many others). Those expectations were definitely met. From the moment you step into this world you know it's going to be something special. The opening titles are great, they follow Tintin and Snowy around through some of their previous adventures in silhouette backed by a great theme from the master, John Williams. After the delightful intro we get into the story, when Tintin purchases a model ship things start to turn pear shaped as he finds out that the ship has the secret to finding a lot of treasure. Along the way Tintin meets Captain Haddock (Played very well by Andy Serkis) and they develop a friendship. Haddock is where a lot of the laughs come from and most of them are hilarious. One of the only gripes I have with this movie is the way Tintin looks but I certainly get over that once the story pulled me in. All of the voice acting is great and level of detail amazing. Spielberg and Jackson have definitely pulled it off.
9/10
