Mr Tintin

There are plenty of others willing to call you a failure. A fool. A loser. A hopeless souse. Don't you ever say it of yourself. You send out the wrong signal, that is what people pick up. Don't you understand? You care about something, you fight for it, you push through it. There's something you need to know about failure. You can never let it defeat you. Snowy is so cute, all kinds of god assists. Spielberg perfectly restored the brave, smart and witty Tintin, as well as the two funny police detectives. The captain is also an interesting person, who has grown from an alcoholic to a brave captain. The ship battle here is the best naval battle I've seen since the Pirates of the Caribbean, and the chase scene is the best chase scene I've seen since The Spy Shots. The animation is more free and imaginative than the real one.

The Adventures of Tintin quotes

  • [Tintin has escaped and stumbled into a room on the second deck of the ship, where he meets the eternally intoxicated Captain Haddock for the first time]

    Captain Haddock: [brandashing a bent pipe; thinking Tintin is an intruder] So... you were trying' to catch me wi' my trousers down, huh?

    Tintin: [dodging Haddock's blows] I would keep your trousers up, all the same to you.

    Captain Haddock: [about Shakarine] He was planning all of this, trying to bump me off! He sent you here to kill me, huh?

    Tintin: What are you talking about?

    Captain Haddock: I knew he was going send someone to do th' job! Me murdered in bed by a baby-faced assassin!

    [Snowy grabs a hold of Haddock's pants with his teeth]

    Captain Haddock: [trying to shake Snowy off] Arrgh!

    Tintin: No, No! You've got it all wrong! I'm not an assassin.

    [Captain Haddock stops fighting]

    Tintin: I was captured by a gang of thugs!

    [There is a pause; Haddock begins to cry comically]

    Captain Haddock: [tearfully] Oh, the filthy swine! He's turned the whole crew against me!

    Tintin: Who did?

    Captain Haddock: [still blubbering] Ah, the sour-faced man with the sugary name. He has bumped 'em off. Every last one of 'em!

    Tintin: You mean, Sakharine?

    Captain Haddock: [vehemently] NOBODY takes MY ship!

    Tintin: You're the captain?

    Captain Haddock: [sardonically] Of course, I am. WHO else would I be?

  • Captain Haddock: [During the Port of Bagghar chase;Captain Haddock is trying to grab one of the scrolls before Sakharine's peregrine falcon can] Oh no, not again! Come here, my beauty!
