Viewing Notes

Not quite as fun as the wild James Bond adventure and villainy of Lake of Sharks. Plus Tintin and the Captain slaughter a couple dozen crocodiles which is bananas. Also Milou aka Snowy is a brat in this movie. Tonally all over the place which is odd given it’s the same director / writer team as Lake of Sharks.

After Tintin & Co are captured by the Inca people he agrees to be sacrificed but in 12 days and I knew what he was doing but holy crap so much for moving the story along. Why twelve days and not two?? So they just gotta hang out at the Inca temple for two weeks… weird choice in the screenplay. I kinda checked out after that.
