It stars the voices of Jay Baruchel, Gerard Butler, Craig Ferguson, America Ferrera, Jonah Hill, T.J. Miller, Kristen Wiig, and Christopher Mintz - Plasse. The story takes place in a mythical Viking world where a young Viking teenager named Hiccup aspires to follow his tribe 's tradition of becoming a dragon slayer. After finally capturing his first dragon, and with his chance at last of gaining the tribe 's acceptance, he finds that he no longer wants to kill the dragon and instead befriends it.

Hiccup, the awkward fifteen - year - old son of the village chieftain, Stoick the Vast, is too small to fight the dragons and instead fashions mechanical devices under his apprenticeship with Gobber the blacksmith, though his inventions often backfire. During one attack, Hiccup believes he has shot down a Night Fury, an extremely rare and dangerous dragon. Hiccup later finds it in the forest trapped in his bolas, but finds that he can not bring himself to kill the dragon and instead sets it free. Stoick assembles a fleet to find the dragons ' nest, leaving Hiccup in a dragon - fighting class taught by Gobber. Hiccup returns to the forest to find the Night Fury still there, and realizes it is unable to fly properly because of its crippled caudal fin. Hiccup gradually tames the dragon and gives it the name `` Toothless '', for its retractable teeth. Hiccup makes a harness and prosthetic fin that allows him to guide the dragon in free flight. By studying Toothless 's behavior, Hiccup becomes proficient in subduing the captive dragons during training. Stoick 's fleet arrives home unsuccessful, but he is cheered by Hiccup 's unexpected success. Astrid, a tough Viking girl on whom Hiccup has a crush, discovers Hiccup is training Toothless, but Hiccup takes her for a ride to demonstrate his relationship with the dragon before she can tell the village. Toothless unexpectedly takes the pair to the dragons ' nest where they discover a gargantuan dragon named the Red Death, which eats the smaller dragons unless they bring it stolen livestock. Back at the village, Hiccup subdues a captive dragon in his final training test in front of his father instead of killing it, but Stoick inadvertently angers the dragon into attacking. Toothless attempts to protect Hiccup in the ensuing panic but is instead captured by the Vikings. Hiccup accidentally reveals to Stoick that Toothless is capable of locating the dragons ' nest. Stoick disowns his son and sets off for the nest with Toothless chained to the lead ship as a guide. The Vikings expel most of the dragons but are overwhelmed by the Red Death until Hiccup, Astrid and their fellow pupils fly in riding the training dragons from the academy and provide cover fire. Hiccup almost drowns trying to break Toothless free from a sinking ship but Stoick saves them both and then reconciles with his son. Toothless and Hiccup destroy the Red Death but Hiccup is injured in the fight. Hiccup regains consciousness on Berk where his lower left leg has been replaced by a prosthesis, and the Vikings and the dragons now live in harmony.

Production Early production concept artwork of `` Toothless '' and `` Hiccup '' The book series by Cressida Cowell began coming to attention to the executives at DreamWorks Animation in 2004. Coming off her success in Over the Hedge, producer Bonnie Arnold shortly became interested in the newly acquired property. She kept focusing on the project as time went on, and when DreamWorks Animation co-president of production Bill Damaschke asked her what she wanted to work on next, she chose `` How to Train Your Dragon ''. In initial development, the plot followed the original novel closely, but about halfway through production Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, the writer - directors of Disney 's Lilo & Stitch, took over as co-directors and it was altered. The original plot was described as, `` heavily loyal to the book '', but was regarded as being too `` sweet '' and `` whimsical '' as well as geared towards a too - young demographic, according to Baruchel. In the novel, Hiccup 's dragon, Toothless, is a Common or Garden Dragon, a small breed. In the film, Toothless is a Night Fury, the rarest of all dragons, and is large enough to serve as a flying mount for both Hiccup and Astrid. The filmmakers hired cinematographer Roger Deakins ( known for frequently collaborating with the Coen brothers ) as a visual consultant to help them with lighting and overall look of the film and to `` add a live - action feel ''. Extensive research was done to depict both flight, as the directors knew they would be the biggest draw of the film 's 3D effects, and fire, given animation could break away from the limitations seen in live - action films, where propane flames are usual due to being easier to extinguish. The dragons ' design made sure to create animals that were comical and also innovative compared to other dragon fiction. Toothless in particular tried to combine various dragon traits in a black panther - inspired design, that also had large ears and eyes to convey emotion better. The directors made sure to cash in the improvisation abilities of the secondary cast -- Christopher Mintz - Plasse, Jonah Hill, Kristen Wiig and T.J Miller -- by frequently bringing them together in the recording sessions. Music Main article : How to Train Your Dragon : Music from the Motion Picture John Powell returned to DreamWorks Animation to score How to Train Your Dragon, making it his sixth collaboration with the studio, following his previous score for Kung Fu Panda ( which he scored with Hans Zimmer ). Powell composed an orchestral score, combining bombastic brass with loud percussion and soothing strings, while also using exotic, Scottish and Irish tones with instruments like the penny whistle and bagpipes. Additionally, Icelandic singer Jónsi wrote and performed the song `` Sticks & Stones '' for the film. The score was released by Varèse Sarabande on March 23, 2010. Overall, the score was well received by film score critics. Powell earned his first Academy Award nomination for his work on the film, ultimately losing to Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross for their score for The Social Network. Release How to Train Your Dragon had its United States premiere on March 21, 2010, at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, California. It was theatrically released on March 26, 2010, in the United States. The film was digitally re-mastered into IMAX 3D, and released to 186 North American IMAX theatres, and approximately 80 IMAX theatres outside North America. Competition for 3D screens A month before the release, DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg protested Warner Bros. ' decision to convert Clash of the Titans from 2D to 3D, then to release it one week after How to Train Your Dragon. Entertainment reporter Kim Masters described the 3D release schedule around March 2010 as a `` traffic jam '', and speculated that the lack of 3D screen availability could hurt Katzenberg 's prospects despite his support of the 3D format. In March 2010, theater industry executives accused Paramount of using high - pressure tactics to coerce theaters to screen How to Train Your Dragon rather than the competing 3D releases, Clash of the Titans and Tim Burton 's Alice in Wonderland. As theater multiplexes often had just one 3D screen, theaters were unable to accommodate more than one 3D presentation at a time. Box - Office How to Train Your Dragon topped the North American box office with $43.7 million in its first weekend of release. The film grossed $217,581,231 in the United States and Canada and $277,297,528 in foreign countries with a worldwide total of $494,878,759. How to Train Your Dragon is DreamWorks Animation 's highest - grossing film in the American and Canadian box office other than the Shrek films. It is the fifth - highest - grossing animated film of 2010 with $494.8 million, behind Toy Story 3 with $1,063.2 million, Shrek Forever After with $752.6 million, Tangled with $576.6 million, and Despicable Me with $543.1 million and the 10th - highest - grossing movie of 2010. As of 2018, the How to Train Your Dragon series has grossed over $1 billion worldwide. Critical reception How To Train Your Dragon received critical acclaim upon its release. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 98 % of critics gave the film a positive review, based on 204 reviews from professional critics, with an overall rating average of 7.9 out of 10. The website 's critical consensus states, `` Boasting dazzling animation, a script with surprising dramatic depth, and thrilling 3 - D sequences, How to Train Your Dragon soars. '' By `` Tomatometer '' score, the film is DreamWorks Animation 's highest - rated film. On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average rating of 74 based on 33 reviews from critics, indicating `` generally favorable reviews ''. CinemaScore polls conducted during the opening weekend revealed the average grade cinemagoers gave How to Train Your Dragon was A on an A+ to F scale. Roger Ebert of The Chicago Sun - Times gave it 3 stars out of 4, stating that : `` It devotes a great deal of time to aerial battles between tamed dragons and evil ones, and not much to character or story development. But it 's bright, good - looking, and has high energy ''. Claudia Puig of USA Today gave it 3.5 out of 4 stars, saying, `` It 's a thrilling action - adventure saga with exhilarating 3 - D animation, a clever comedy with witty dialogue, a coming - of - age tale with surprising depth and a sweetly poignant tale of friendship between man and animal. '' Rolling Stone film critic Peter Travers praised the film, giving it three out of four stars and in his print review wrote, `` ( The film ) works enough miracles of 3 - D animation to charm your socks off. '' Roger Moore of The Orlando Sentinel, who gave the film 21⁄2 stars out of 4, wrote a mixed review describing the film as a `` more coming - of - age dramedy or ' everything about your world view is wrong ' message movie than it is a comedy, and that seems like a waste of a funny book, some very funny actors and some darned witty animation. '' Kyle Smith of the New York Post gave the film 2 / 4 stars labeling the film as, `` Avatar for simpletons. But that title is already taken, by Avatar ''. Contrarily, Brett Michel of The Boston Phoenix stated that the film was better than Avatar. A.O. Scott of At The Movies felt the characters and the story were not strong points, but loved the cinematography and said, `` that swooping and soaring, they are worth the price of a ticket, so go see it. '' Village Voice film critic Ella Taylor gave a more negative review of the film, describing it as an `` adequate but unremarkable animated tale ''. Film critic James Berardinelli of ReelViews praised the film and its story, giving it 3.5 out of 4 stars he wrote, `` Technically proficient and featuring a witty, intelligent, surprisingly insightful script, How to Train Your Dragon comes close to the level of Pixar 's recent output while easily exceeding the juvenilia DreamWorks has released in the last nine years. '' Entertainment Weekly film critic Owen Gleiberman praised the film giving it an A - and wrote, `` How to Train Your Dragon rouses you in conventional ways, but it 's also the rare animated film that uses 3 - D for its breathtaking spatial and emotional possibilities. '' ViewLondon 's Mathew Turner gave the film 4 / 5 stars, calling it, `` beautifully animated and superbly written '', and praised the voice cast, humor, and action. Matt Risley of Variety gave the film a perfect score of 5 / 5 stars, hailing it as, `` undoubtedly Dreamworks ' best film yet, and quite probably the best dragon movie ever made ''.
