Movie #550 ........................."The Adventures of Tin Tin"

Movie #550 "The Adventures of Tin Tin" is not my type of movie at all. Way too busy for naught kind of film. More for a 12 year old boy. It has no deep messages, no love story (there isn't even a woman in it that I can remember), very little humor, just one escapade after another, like those serial t.v. shows they have in early t.v. There's no emotional tie to what is happening on the screen, just one close call after another after another after another. Much like "Raiders of the Lost Arc," except that one I cared more about --- this one, not so much. However, that being said, I can value the film making ---- I kept thinking: what must the story boards be like for this film? (because I know Spielburg storyboards everything) I also thought the decisions on what to show in the action were good, because they were often that which they could never film with real people and animals. One more thing --- when you see it, notice the homage in the opening to Hitchcock, and also notice that the pickpocket looks just like Spielburg!
