Honestly… this is my new favourite movie. There was not a
point throughout the entire runtime of this movie when there was not a goofy
smile slapped right across my face.
For me, this is a rather difficult movie to review I simply think it is the best thing to have existed in recent memory. The first thing that strikes you when watching the movie is the art style. I can see how this style could possibly turn some people off. These people are probably just too obsessed with the style of Pixar to appreciate this utter CGI masterpiece. I’m almost ashamed to say that I thought a live-action section was about to start halfway through the movie.
With any adventure movie, the most important thing is the story and Tintin brings a fun and original story to the somewhat sparse adventure genre table. I couldn’t help but feel that the writer of this movie played through Uncharted 3 before writing this. The similarities are pretty striking. For instance, there is a rusty old boat bit, there is a bit on a plane and there is a bit in a Middle Eastern country. I was captivated the whole time. This is one of the strongest aspects of the movie. A lot of movies I want to hate because of things that happen early in the film. I am totally on board with this movie throughout.
The soundtrack also stands out. The magical music man John Williams lends his genius to this movie and it is a treat. It enhances the tension and pacing of the movie to cosmic levels and the action sequences really jump out with this great score behind them.
I cannot recommend it more. If you want to watch one of the most enjoyable experiences of the 21st century then you certainly cannot miss TInitn. I give it a 10/10
