Rating: 9/10 (9 June 2013)

How to Train Your Dragon is honestly one of my favourite films of all time. If you're a fan of fantasy animation such as Rise of the Guardians, Brave or Tangled then I highly recommend this film. By using key techniques that are done in a perfectly appropriate way, this mind- blowing film appeals to all audiences.
The film focuses on the importance of victory and acceptance, instead of a cliché love story that is found in most family fantasy films. With the fantastic use of animation, working perfectly with the spiritual music, this film never fails to widen it's audience's eyes. You will never know what will happen next.
Though very different from the original books, I personally prefer the ideas used in this film. Because of the chilling mystery and edgy humour, and with a hint of romance, the film sticks to the meaning of the plot without drifting off into some cheesy romantic comedy.
Also with the brilliant voice acting from Jay Baruchel, America Ferrera and Kristen Wiig, the characters vary personality; ranging from brave and superior to shy and timid, the characters are all likable. Then of course the legendary dragons, who seem to have personalities themselves, bring humour and imagination to the film, as well as going against the typical tropes of most dragon tales.
Overall, I guarantee no matter how old you are, you will be amazed by this film.
