Surprisingly Good

Rating: 8/10 (6 April 2010)

I did not come into this movie expecting to be entertained.
I am a huge Pixar fan, and therefore have an intense hatred of DreamWorks.
Despite this, I found myself liking the movie. The dragons, especially Toothless, were adorable. Hiccup had me liking him from the start, but I started liking the movie that moment he didn't kill Toothless.
A few things I didn't like- Astrid hating him at first, and then, after he almost gets her killed, she falls in love with him.
The animation was better than I expected- Not on level with most Pixar films, especially when the characters were wet(the dad barely looked it at some points), but much better than past DreamWorks movies.
However, it was the ending that had me loving this movie.
DreamWorks has finally made a good movie.
