[Movie Review]The Adventures of Tintin


“Is this for real?” That was my initial reaction when I first caught glimpse of the poster featuring Tintin. Memories flow back as I reminisce the days of reading this wonderful comic adventure drawn by cartoonist Georges Remi, under the pen name Hergé. The comic book hero along with his iconic fox terrier Snowy turned to the silver screen this November with the help of renowned Hollywood directors Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson.

Tintin and his controversial "sidekick", Captain Haddock

Thomson and Thompson, the world's clumsiest policemen

Despite the numerous actions scenes, several humorous moments give the audience a needed break from all the running and chasing. 
Thomson and Thompson’s clumsiness and Aristides Silk, a pickpocket with a wallet fetish provide a few good laughs.

More information on the movie can be found the official website:
Likes
