The Adventures of Tintin 2011

The Adventures of Tintin (2011)     Computer animated motion capture adaptation of Herge's comic strip, the first installment in the trilogy.  Adventure seeking Belgian reporter Tintin and surly Captain Haddock race to recover a treasure that was lost at sea four centuries ago.  The Malevolent Red Rackham is determined to beat them to the treasure. 
     I was not at all familiar with the comic strip or Tintin before this film.  I know a lot of work went into the making of this movie but it just doesn't hold my interest.  Some animated movies just don't seem to have enough of a plot.  3* (This movie is OK)

106 min, Action directed by Steven Spielberg with Jamie Bell, Any Serkis, Daniel Craig, Nick Frost, Mackenzie Crook, Toby Jones, Gad Elmaleh, Daniel Mays, Enn Reitel.

Note:  Blockbuster 3 1/2*, imdb 7.6 out of 10, 74% critic 78% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
