Tintin?

Rating: Null/10 (20 November 2011)

When I found out I was to see Tintin, I thought I would see something that Spielberg wouldn't have been able to denature. Boy was I wrong. There are a few deviations from Herge's work that are interesting. Thus, as Rackham le Rouge becoming the ancestor of the guy looking to put his hands on the treasure. There are elements that I suspect have been lifted from Disney, which also work out (the fight between the two dock cranes which is almost identical to the fight between Donald and his uncle "manning" one excavator each). The rest is standard Spielberg stuff, and it takes over Herge's work. Chain reaction as the water rushes down from the palace to the coastline? One more meaningless chain reaction of events that litter Spielberg's movies. Where are Herge's jokes? Gone. Herge's logical presentation is sacrificed to Spielberg's not-sure-what (e.g. in the movie the coordinates of the treasure single the castle, but at the castle, then Tintin yells he knows where to go and find the treasure as the coordinates of the treasure point to a specific place!!!!).
