I must say, coming into this movie i had no clue as to how good it would be. Dreamworks animation in the past has had some rough moments with their films ever since Kung Fu Panda and in my opinion, have not made a good movie until now. How To Train Your Dragon is a cute film about a boy who grows up a viking under his legendary dragon killing father, and finds out he's just not able to fight dragons. The town sees him as weak and they keep him away from any sort of fighting. That is until he befriends a dragon, which he calls Toothless.
The simple plot may seem to drag some, but the amazing 3D special effects and animation really make this film work. The flying sequences just pull you right in! Without that, or if i would see it in 2D, this film would have been terrible. There is just something about the films magic that makes it really likable. Dreamworks has outdone itself this time (in a good way). Although lacks greatly on plot and that it was extremly chaotic the first 15 minutes, i have too say, it all really pays off in the end. It just makes you wonder, what would i do with a pet dragon?
