The Secret of the Unicorn & Red Rackham's Treasure


Barbary Pirates, a nutty professor, a centuries old legend, and buried treasure – this double adventure is is chocked full of intrigue and suspense. Dive to the bottom of the sea and back with Tintin and friends as they scour the ocean for gold. The Secret of the Unicorn and Red Rackham's Treasure mark a significant change in the tone for Tintin and his friends. However, the new setting and additional character Professor Calculus only serve to make the journey more exciting.  The full-length film The Secret of the Unicorn (directed by Steven Spielberg and staring Andy Serkis, Daniel Craig, and Jamie Bell) is actually coming out later this year. Don't know about you, but I'm one of those people who hates to see the movie before reading the book; I find that going that route rarely enhances the story. My recommendation for the best Tintin experience is that you read the comic before hitting the theater.
