A thorough pleasure to watch!

Rating: 10/10 (21 July 2012)

This wasn't a film I was anticipating, however, when you are in love with a comic book collector, you can't help but fall in love with these old stories coming to life! So I bumped this title up to the top of my Blockbuster queue (thanks very much to DishTV for the excellent new member freebies!) - it arrived in the mailbox yesterday and we watched it last night. It was a thorough pleasure! It was obvious that when Spielberg sets out to do a thing, he does it with a big heart. The animation is gorgeous! The story they have adapted from the original comics is perfectly timed! Thank you for not making it too long!! And thank you for ending it the way you did. Applause! Can't wait to see another adventure of Tintin!
There are several truly special moments in this film and I won't spoil it for others - trust me, if you are like me and not a fan of this genre, you will still be glad you put this one on your watch list!
