[78] Blog Critics writer Ross Miller said: "Author Hergé's wonderfully bold and diverse array of characters are a mixed bag when it comes to how they've been translated to the big-screen" and that while the mystery might be "perfectly serviceable" for the film, the execution of it at times feels languid and stodgy, like it's stumbling along from one eye-catching setpiece to the next". [50] From the very beginning to the very end, the film took a total of seven years in production. Grę wyróżnia bardzo ładna, trójwymiarowa grafika w komiksowym stylu oraz ciekawa, przygodowa fabuła.

How curious that Hergé achieved more expression with his use of ink-spot eyes and humble line drawings than a bank of computers and an army of animators were able to achieve". [87] On its first weekend it topped the overseas box office with $56.2 million from 21 countries. As Sakharine was made the main antagonist in the film, the book's main villains, the Bird brothers, are absent from the adaptation, save for a small "cameo" in the initial sequence at the market. and his dog Snowy are browsing in an outdoor market in a European town (scene starts off with a cameo of Hergé doing Tintin's portrait).

Official website:Tintin.com Plot Summary: Paramount Pictures and Columbia Pictures Present a 3D Motion Capture Film "The Adventures of Tintin" … The film's first press-screening was held in Belgium on 10 October 2011. [85] On its first day, the film opened in the UK, France and Belgium, earning $8.6 million. The Adventures of Tintin is a 1991/1992 animated TV show co-produced, written and animated in France by Ellipse Animation and in Canada by Nelvana International, based on The Adventures of Tintin by Belgian comic artist Georges Prosper Remi, more commonly known by his pen name Hergé (). The internationally successful Adventures of Tintin are his most well-known and beloved works. [80], Steve Rose from The Guardian wrote about one of the film's major criticisms: that The Adventures of Tintin, much like The Polar Express, crossed into the uncanny valley, thereby rendering Tintin "too human and not human at all". [26] Spielberg saw Tintin as an "Indiana Jones for kids" and wanted Jack Nicholson to play Haddock. [9] He revealed: "Every movie I made, up until Tintin, I always kept one eye closed when I've been framing a shot", because he wanted to see the movie in 2-D, the way viewers would. [68] Roger Ebert of Chicago Sun-Times gave the film three and a half stars out of four, calling it "an ambitious and lively caper, miles smarter than your average 3-D family film". [9] A week of filming took place in November 2006 in Playa Vista, Los Angeles, California, on the stage where James Cameron shot Avatar. [77], La Libre Belgique was, however, a little less enthusiastic; its film critic Alain Lorfèvre called the film "a technical success, [with] a Tintin vivid as it should be [and] a somewhat excessive Haddock". [13] Composer John Williams was nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Score and the film was nominated for six Saturn Awards, including Best Animated Film, Best Director for Spielberg and Best Music for Williams. Just as Alfred Hitchcock made furtive appearances in his films, Hergé couldn’t resist joining in the adventures of his characters. [86] In France, it was the second-best debut of the year for its first day after Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2. Great Caesar's Ghost! [92] In its native Belgium it was up 20% to $2.39 million, while in France it plummeted 61% to $8.42 million. Young children will have no trouble picking up who's who in the early stages, before settling back for the incredible roller coaster ride of the second and climatic act.Action fans will gain greatness from this movie too. [38], More filming took place in March 2008. [76] Leslie Felperin of Variety wrote: "Clearly rejuvenated by his collaboration with producer Peter Jackson, and blessed with a smart script and the best craftsmanship money can buy, Spielberg has fashioned a whiz-bang thrill ride that's largely faithful to the wholesome spirit of his source but still appealing to younger, Tintin-challenged auds". [75] Le Figaro praised the film, considering it to be "crammed with action, humor and suspense". Another major fault in the film, Dargis opines, is how it is overworked; she writes that there is "hardly a moment of downtime, a chance to catch your breath or contemplate the tension between the animated Expressionism and the photo-realist flourishes". ", "Rivals in Talks to Finance 'Tintin' Films", "Paramount and Sony might co-parent "Tintin, "Sony Classical to Release John Williams' 'The Adventures of Tintin' Soundtrack", "The Adventures Of Tintin: John Williams", "Tintin fans flock to Belgian film premiere", "The Adventures of Tintin Hits Theaters on Dec. 23, 2011", "The Adventures of Tintin: Daniel Craig, Jamie Bell, Steven Spielberg: Movies & TV", "Blu-ray Sales, Mar. The trio find the seaplane attacking them, shoot it down and hijack the seaplane and use it to fly towards the fictitious Moroccan port of Bagghar, but it crashes in a desert due to it running out of fuel and flying in a thunderstorm. Dargis noted that Tintin's appearance in the film "resembled Hergé's creation, yet was eerily different as if, like Pinocchio, his transformation into human form had been prematurely interrupted". 1/2. don @ minifie-1. [57] The world première was held in Brussels, Belgium on 22 October 2011—attended by Princess Astrid and her younger daughters, Princess Luisa Maria and Princess Laetitia Maria, with the Paris première later the same day. It captures its spirit and remains true to its characters. Intrepid reporter Tintin and Captain Haddock set off on a treasure hunt for a sunken ship commanded by Haddock's ancestor. [79], Tom McCarthy, the author of a study of the Tintin books, described Hollywood's treatment in this film of its characters and stories as "truly execrable", stating that it ignores the books' key idea of inauthenticity. Snowy chases after them, boards the ship and reunites with Tintin. Considering Hergé's stories are separate volumes, the typing trio behind this movie are able to make a sensible structure with the texts, making the film flow as gracefully as its perfect imagery. [98], The Adventures of Tintin was nominated for Best Original Score at the 84th Academy Awards. [93][94], The film grossed ₹7.5 crore (US$1.1 million) on its opening weekend (11–13 November 2011) in India, an all-time record for a Spielberg film and for an animated feature in India. the Extra-Terrestrial writer Melissa Mathison to script a film about Tintin battling ivory hunters in Africa. 22 wins & 62 nominations. Expect high octane chases, pirate swordplay and more bullets than a Sylvester Stallone entry – just a lot less gore and swearing. The film was produced and directed by Steven Spielberg, co-produced by Peter Jackson and Kathleen Kennedy, written by Steven Moffat, Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish, and stars Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis, Daniel Craig, Nick Frost and Simon Pegg, who portray their characters through voice acting and motion capture. Favorite Film Directed by Steven Spielberg? We know which books we're making, we can't share that now but we're combining two books which were always intended to be combined by Hergé". [39] Moffat said he was "love bombed" by Spielberg into accepting the offer to write the films, with the director promising to shield him from studio interference with his writing. A chase through the city ensues, during which he gains all the scrolls. While walking in the desert, Haddock hallucinates and remembers his ancestor, Sir Francis Haddock, the 17th-century captain of the Unicorn, whose treasure-laden ship was attacked by the crew of a pirate ship, before becoming sober. Bell's inquisitive tone and frequent high-pitched bursts mirror the speech bubbles Tintin utters in the comic panels. [22] During the shoot, Cameron and Robert Zemeckis (director of The Polar Express, another motion-captured animated film) were present. Sir Francis surrendered on the condition that his crew be allowed to live, but since the pirates killed his entire crew, he chose to sink the Unicorn, along with most of its treasure, to prevent it from falling into Rackham's hands. As a result of this change, many events transpire that bear no relation to events in the books involving Sakharine's character. But Peter will stick to it.
