Love it as much today as I did when first watched with the kids

Rating: 1/10 (27 April 2019)

It's April 2019 and HTTYD is on TV. I remembered I loved it when I saw it when it first came out with the kids (and a couple of times since) and thought "I wonder if it still has its appeal?"
Answer... yes. The animation is beautiful (especially the flying scenes, the varied Dragon breeds and Toothless's facial expressions) but the storyline matches it... the evolution of Hiccups relationship with Toothless and the Viking clans relationship with ALL dragons, is perfectly done - never rushed, never forced and never kiddish/sickly (it's not all plain sailing).
I won't go into too much detail in case you've not seen it but watch.... whatever your age. If you're a kid, you'll love it. But if you're an adult (or a grown up kid, like me), you'll appreciate the animation, the adventure, the characters, the lovely story. Be a kid again, enjoy.
(P.S. I read Roger Eberts review before writing this as I always read his reviews... he was the best reviewer I've ever read. Its the first time I've thought he was wrong... gave it an "ok" review, maybe this wasn't his genre/thing).
