The Adventures Of Tintin (2011) 7/10

Starring : Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis, Daniel Craig, Nick Frost, Simon Pegg
Director : Steven Spielberg
Running Time : 107 mins

When young reporter Tintin (Bell) buys a model ship from a market stall, he finds himself on a fantastic adventure in search of a long lost ship called the Unicorn. Along the way he joins forces with Captain Haddock (Serkis), whose ancestor originally captained the Unicorn, and also finds himself under threat from the evil Sakharine (Craig).

This was a pretty faithful adaptation of the Herge comic book – with a few extra action sequences thrown in for good measure – but Spielberg fans might find it difficult to recognise his input. Fans of the books will enjoy this, but people who are expecting something visually impressive or comically fuelled will be disappointed by this story driven animation.
