Looking back now, I made two mistakes when I went to the cinema to see this movie last year: First, I made the three mistakes of "The Secret of the Unicorn", "The Treasure of Red Rackham" and "The Crab Cartel" before watching it. I've revisited this manga (but after reading it, it seems that I should have added a "Scepter of King Otoka"), and then I actually chose to watch the 3D version.
As for the previous mistake, people like me who are more "dead loyal" to their favorite works really can't watch this film with the impression of the original. It is conceivable to imagine how people who are dissatisfied with the lack of many details in the comics even watching the "Ding Ding" animation introduced by CCTV can imagine how they would evaluate this work that is not destined to completely copy the original work. , but I seem to be that kind of person. As a result, when I was watching the movie, I was almost too busy comparing the plot with the impression in my mind, and I couldn't care about anything else, and in the end I was left with a very disappointed impression.
Another mistake. Now I find that this movie based on comics has as few 3D features as possible. Choosing to watch the 3D version at that time also deepened my negative impression of the film.
This time, because I don't have the equipment, I can only watch the 2D version, and I couldn't help but read the manga before watching it.
In my personal opinion, the best part of the picture is the background animation during the opening credits. It's really good to use this kind of 2D animation combined with 3D features to adapt the manga work, I hope the whole film is this kind of animation instead of 3D animation made with motion capture, but this seems to be only my own Wishful thinking. I am very satisfied with all the characters in this film except Tintin. As for Tintin's image, I just hope his face can be closer to the original, but at the beginning of the film, I drew his original image (and also included Elle Heat himself inserted).
As for the plot of this film, because of the lack of deliberate contrasts in this review, some parts that I didn't like in the past are now liked. As an adventure-themed film, the film is still very well done. The creative design is very well controlled, and it doesn't feel contrived at all, which is much better than Zemeckis' motion capture animations. The film restores some classic bridges from the comics, although some of the meanings of the film have changed a little. The wonderful plots are more successfully portrayed, and there are even more thrilling places than the comics themselves (only relative to the few books adapted from the movies). There are a lot of humorous jokes in the movie, some of which are from the comics, and some are originals of the movie. Now it seems that I am quite satisfied with most of the plots of the whole film. I am glad that the film shows many scenes of Bai Xue's actions, but it is a pity that it is not able to tell Bai Xue's mood like the comics. The most unsatisfactory part is the part of Tintin flying the plane. This part always makes me feel as nonsense as the scene where Tintin is flying in the plane in "Tintin in the Soviet Union".
An adaptation of the film from the original. It seems to me now that the story of "The Secret of the Unicorn" is actually not very exciting, or even my favorite one, but this story is the most reductive in the movie. As for the sequel "Red Rackham's Treasure", I got the impression that I had high expectations before I saw it, but I found out that it was just like that. This story has only one ending left here. In comparison, the story of "Golden Claw Crab Drug Cartel" is a more exciting existence in my opinion than the two "Treasure Hunt" stories, but in the film this story only serves to illustrate how Tintin knew the captain, And only keep the plot related to it. To my surprise, the film also introduced "The Nightingale of Milan" (Benka Castafil) from "The Scepter of King Otoka". Overall, the film has straightened out the story, and there are no incoherent problems due to too many sources. The movie is better than the Unicorn book alone, but not the best one here.
Finally, let’s talk about the dubbing issue. The translation of the nouns used in the above translation is still good. In the lines, a lot of popular terms are added according to the previous usage, but these terms are not used in this animation. Appropriate, but at present, this is the best, unless the group of people from the Federation of Literary and Art Circles can write the lines (is this possible). What makes me more resentful is that the voice of Tintin in this film makes me sound a little too mature (but I found that the English dubbing also has this problem), in fact, I prefer CCTV's voice for Tintin - it sounds like Like a teenage kid.
I am quite satisfied with the review of this film. I heard that the next adaptation will be "Seven Crystal Balls" + "Prisoner of the Sun", because this is my favorite story, I'm looking forward to it, and I hope this time it will be closer to the comics .
