Synopsis:
Hiccup (voice by Jay Baruchel) is a failure as a Viking: skinny, inquisitive, and inventive, he asks questions and tries out unsuccessful contraptions when he's supposed to be fighting the dragons that attack his village. His father, chief Stoick the Vast (voice of Gerard Butler), has pretty much given up on his teenage son and apprenticed him to blacksmith Gobber (voice of Craig Ferguson). Worse, Hiccup knows the village loser hasn't a chance of impressing Astrid (voice of America Ferrera), the girl of his dreams and a formidable dragon fighter in her own right. When one of Hiccup's inventions actually works, he hasn't the heart to kill the young dragon he's brought down.
He names it Toothless and befriends it, although he's been taught to fear and loathe dragons...

Can’t wait to get the sequel - How to Train Your Dragon review by DS

Spoiler Alert
20/08/2018

Much better than I was expecting, great animation and characterisation and the 3D is breathtaking. Like MH I would definitely watch it again, one to buy and keep I think.

To me, the best animated film I've ever seen. The perfect film in every way - How to Train Your Dragon review by TB

Spoiler Alert
27/06/2023

This film is perfection. It takes a well-worn story (social outcast finds another outcast and they bond before showing everyone how just because you're different, doesn't mean you aren't also deserving of the same respect and love,) and takes it in the most unexpected and wonderful places.

The animation is flawless. You feel like you are actually flying up in the clouds with Hiccup and Toothless, whilst the magnificent score acts as your guide.

The voice acting is also great. There isn't a better voice for Hiccup than Jay Baruchel. It just works in every way, as does the rest of the cast. Special mention must go to Gerard Butler & Craig Ferguson, really using their Scottish accents to magnificent effect.

And the script is phenomenal. Every character feels real, like a genuine person you would meet. And the life lessons & precious moments aren't forced. Unlike today where there has to be an almost hammerblow attitude to things, it is so light but yet so powerful.

I love this film. It is everything you would ever possibly want from a movie, along with magnificent production values. Movie magic

Great Fun and terrific in 3D - How to Train Your Dragon review by John M from Romsey

Spoiler Alert

Excellent animation and great fun to watch and I am very glad that we have a passive 65" 3D TV that really does this film justice. I think your very own dragon could be quite useful transportation at times!!
