Love it!

Rating: 8/10 (27 October 2013)

Movies like this are my weakness. I just love animation family-movies with cute creatures, can't help it. The 8/10 is only because the animation felt a little bit too raw at some parts, but overall it's a lot of hard work and it looks gorgeous. I honestly didn't mind these minor visual details just because the story itself was so fantastic. Clearly they did their research about vikings and animals behavior (two things that for some reason I know a lot about - I never even realized that about myself). I love how Hiccup's voice is changing when he's speaking, like a real teenage boy. Some of the sweetest character designs ever (I clearly saw how Lilo&Stitch inspired at least a few of them, but Lilo&Stitch has one of the most beautiful designs I've ever seen - so that is actually a serious compliment). All the characters had a very complete personality, and without words, the first act makes you fall in love with the relationship between Hiccup and Toothless. Sweet movie and highly recommended!
