The visuals where great, the music was beautiful, the story was amazing. Other than that most of us never truely feel 'Belgian'. This normally only happens when our Red Devils play football/soccer. Okay it wasn't as canon as it could be, but it captured the soul of a Tintin comic way more then Hollywood ever did with the Smurfs. For once, Hollywood made a film even Hergé would be proud of. So when the film came out, most of us were really happy and relieved. And Tintin is our pride and joy of bande dessinée. Our little Belgian country already witnessed how Hollywood absolutely butchered the Smurfs. The Idea of Hollywood making a Tintin film was scary. It made 375 million dollars in the box office and critics and viewers seem to really praise it. It is truely timeless! But was it succesful? They are some of the best I've ever seen! If this film would come out today instead ot 10 years ago, no one would even notice. They went all out on this one and it shows! And don't even get me started on those scene transitions. There were some exceptions, but most looked bland. At the time many Tintin fans weren't really happy with that idea because most motion capture films just didn't look good. He visit exotic locations, meets a lot of (strange) people and the story is one big mystery! There is great action, hilarious humour and it's all in all a lot of fun! The visuals:
It's the perfect adventure film: A journalist travels around the world to unravel the secret of the unicorn. On top of that they casted Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis, Daniel Craig, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
This is basically already meant to be legendary, but it gets even better!! Let's start by just naming a few people who helped bringing this film to life: Steven Spielberg, Peter Jackson, John Williams, Stephen Moffat, Edgar Wright. Let me please remind you how good it was.
The fact that Hollywood was able to make a masterpiece like this and still hasn't made a sequel is criminal.
