How to Train Your Dragon
What started as fire and fury will become friendship.
Overview
As the son of a Viking leader on the cusp of manhood, shy Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III faces a rite of passage: he must kill a dragon to prove his warrior mettle. But after downing a feared dragon, he realizes that he no longer wants to destroy it, and instead befriends the beast – which he names Toothless – much to the chagrin of his warrior father.

So the movie was great. I wasn't expecting it to be that good actually. I thought it will be one of those movies wherein it turns out just okay because it's not a Disney/Pixar movie. I mean....if it's not a Disney/Pixar movie, don't expect anything. Which was good I think because not expecting turned out great for me. It was very entertaining (aside from the noisy children and a very noisy and loud mom behind us). I know Toby will like this movie (he actually was able to watch it from begi…

First of all, the animation in this is spectacular. All the scenery in the film looks like something you could find in real life. The action, mainly the climax, and flying shots in this film also show how great the animation is. The main thing about the animation that is amazing is how the dragons look. They all look like real, kinda cartoonish, dragons that come across as vicious but also cute. The cinematography in this film is stunning. The lighting in each and every scene was chosen correctl…

Who wouldn't want Toothless as a pet? Honestly I can see my future kids and their future kids loving this movie as much as I do. How To Train Your Dragon is just that great of a movie. It's gorgeous, funny, heartfelt, and it's got something to say. I can't praise this wonderful film enough.

**Spoilers ahead** The story was really enjoyable, it is a standard embrace that you are different and you will be stronger. However, I think it works well here. Hiccup is not a strong viking like the rest of his village, but he is very smart. He uses that to observe dragons, learn how to live with them and help them. Which, in some way does make him a better fighter but he doesn’t want to kill them. There are many tropes in this movie, like the one I mentioned above. However, the writers…

Who doesn’t like films about dragons? This one draws a bit from mythology, stays just the right side of sentimentality and avoids any power ballads as it tells us the tale of the young “Hiccup” who is the son of the chief (Gerard Butler) and has a reputation for messing things up when it comes to the Viking’s biggest nemesis - the marauding dragon. The young “Hiccup” is quite inventive though, and he devises a contraption that despite the scorn and derision of his friends, he reckons might by ca…
