It was reported that Spielberg would use motion capture technology on his characters. This seemed wrong, wrong, wrong. Not only did Tintin inhabit an adamantly 2-D universe, but he was manifestly not real My worries became irrelevant during the movie's opening scene. It was going to be all right There's one change I didn't appreciate. Spielberg too closely imitates a traditional action movie. There's gunfire in the Herg comics, but the amount that goes on here is distracting. Herg devoted more time to local color, character eccentricities and explosive dialogue One of the benefits of animation is what it allows Spielberg to do with Snowy. The little dog has always been dubious about his master's daring schemes; Tintin will propose an expedition, and Snowy will think in a thought balloon, "Not by foot, I hope!" Some of the funniest moments in the movie involve Snowy's determination to convey urgent information to dunderheaded humans. "The Adventures of Tintin" is an ambitious and lively caper, miles smarter than your average 3-D family film It plays fair with Spielberg (who received Herg's blessing before his death in 1983). I give it 875 portholes.
As you can see here, loads of information on Tintin and his creator are available online:
