DreamWorks concocts a stunning animated adventure

Rating: 9/10 (15 June 2015)

There are so many good things I can say about this film. Most of the things I could say have already been said and thoroughly explored. Despite that I'm going to say them anyway. How to Train Your Dragon is a fun and heartwarming movie about a boy and the forbidden friendship he creates with a dragon in Viking Times. It's such a simple plot and has seemed to be done many times however it just seems to work so well in this film its not hard to get pulled in.
The Visuals are absolutely stunning and magnificent. They are so beautiful and detailed its hard not to fall in love with the setting. The flying scenes are just spectacular. If you ever get a chance to see it in 3D jump on that opportunity.
The voice acting is honestly very well and sometimes extremely funny. I love Jay Baruchel's quirky voice that really doesn't sound like an 11 year old boy, but works so well.
The Visuals are enhanced by the epic score backing it up. John Powell, the composer, is an extremely talented arranger and composer he really makes the movie with his soundtrack of brilliance that almost reminds you of the magic of Harry Potter and the epic-ness of Jurassic Park.
This movie is amazing and it is probably one of my favorite animated films ever and I would suggest it to those of you looking for a fun movie with lots of atmosphere.
