Can director Steven Spielberg bring Herge’s beloved comic book character to life?
However, as the years passed, that love cooled, giving way to disappointment and ultimately resentment.
It also gives Spielberg and Jackson a huge amount to play with, visually.
However, despite the films title, therealstar of the show is Andy Serkis as Captain Archibald Haddock.
The films qualities aside, there are one or two minor niggles.
The pacing of the film isnt quite as smooth as you would hope.
In addition, those looking for slightly more character meat on their digital bones may be slightly disappointed too.
This is absolutely pulp-fiction-via-Ripping-Yarns, and makes no apologies for it.
Welcome back, Steven.
Ive really missed you.
