Users Reviews

Uninspired but enjoyable
Although it kept true to characters and history the movie seemed void, and did not inspire emotion as I would have expected from a tintin story. Enjoyable but lacking excitement.
Good for kids; so-so for adults
Through the eyes of a child: entertaining adventure. Through the eyes of an adult: annoying one-dimensional characters (especially Tin Tin) and basic humour. Toy Story and Shrek are better movies.
Likely to see
Not for me
