How To Train Your Dragon (2010)



By Jamie Lawrence.

Now anything animated in computer form is a delight for me, and what better way to continue my love of films with a light-hearted comedy about dragons. However, although it was joyful and full of sweet moments it lacked that really comedic factor.
Best Moment: The creative variety of dragons + names of characters.
Worst Moment: Lack of real laughing material.
Rating: 7.5/10 - Would have been 8 if there were a few more silly jokes and less slow-paced story-telling.
For Fans Of: Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, and other heart-warming animations.

I couldn't help but fall in love with this film the first time I watched it. The voice actors couldn't make up their minds where they were from, the narrator was loveable, the feel good Vikings - the Dumbledore's Army feel to the whole thing...
Best moment: Feeding time/getting to know you section.
Worst Moment: You never see anyone cook a dragon. Which would have been historically accurate. If dragons existed. The jury is out.
Extremely underrated in my opinion, watch this and enjoy. 8/10
