Visually triumphant and chock-full of classic Spielberg-isms -- both good and bad.April 12, 2013
The movie is fun and colorful, but it doesn't have that creative explosion needed to bring Tintin to life.December 22, 2011
A frenetic bonbon with an empty center, and a movie made without any perceivable audience outside of filmmakers besotted by their own innovative processes.September 28, 2012
Arguably Spielberg's most out-and-out fun movie since Jurassic Park.December 22, 2011
Hergé was the pioneer of an even-handed style of cartooning with solid lines and no shading that became known as ligne claire, but there is a decided lack of clear lines in this erratic movie adaptation of his work.April 12, 2013
It's delirious stuff, often laugh-out-loud funny.May 12, 2015
When everything is possible, nothing is amazing.December 22, 2011
The Adventures of Tintin comes at you in a whoosh, like a volcano full of creative ideas in full eruption... It hits home for the kid in all of us who wants to bust out and run free.April 12, 2013
Spielberg has made his first foray into computer-generated 3D animation. He proves a natural with the form, his (virtual) camerawork dizzying but fluid, and never confusing.April 12, 2013
There are so many variables moving so fast that it's a wonder Spielberg didn't have someone onboard from Princeton's department of Higher Math to help keep track. But his crack team here is enough.April 12, 2013
By no means a masterpiece, the full-length computer-generated animated film nevertheless has freed Spielberg from the shackles of conventional filmmaking and physical limitations.
