Well everyone it's time for another installment of the Road to and this time it's for the How To Train Your Dragon series. Let's being shall we?
How To Train Your Dragon is a 2010 3D animated action fantasy film loosely based on Cressida Cowell 2003 book of the same name. The movie's produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by Paramount Pictures. How To Train Your Dragon was written by Chris Sanders, Dean Deblois and William Davies and directed by Chris Sanders and Dean Deblois.
The story is Hiccup is a Norse teenager from the island of Berk. On that island fighting dragons is a way of life. Hiccup isn't all for this way of life which makes him an outcast among the rest. One day Hiccup befriends a dragon that he has named Toothless. With this new friendship Hiccup thinks he has found a new life for the future of his people.
- Negatives
I've got nothing to say. Let's move on.
- Mix
The real grey area for this movie is the story. It's very predictable where everything is going to go with Hiccup and Toothless and Hiccup and his father. Despite that I wouldn't say that's going to stop anyone from watching the movie.
- Positives
Let's get this out of the way right now. The animation is beautiful. So many details were put into the character's designs. Where it really shines through is the designs of the dragons and the flight scenes. Especially the flight scenes.
Since this is a DreamWorks Animation film you can expect a good amount of humor. There are a lot of funny moments. Most of them come from Gobber.
Speaking of Gobber. That brings me to the characters. Their all great and have their own moments. I really liked this group (too bad we'll have to say goodbye to them when How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World comes out).
How To Train Your Dragon is a fun movie for everyone to see. The animation is wonderful especially for those flying sequences, the humor is nice, and I definitely liked the characters. The only thing I wished was done slightly different was the predictable stories among Hiccup, Toothless, and Hiccup's father.
My final rating is Good
So that's going to do it for me. Come back Thursday, February 7th for a brand new Is It True? Where I go back to the world of The Lego Movie to tackle a fan theory I just recently discovered. That will be in celebration of The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part. Until then enjoy the rest of your day.
