‘How To Train Your Dragon’ gets glowing user reviews

The adaptation of the beloved animated movie series How To Train Your Dragon is finally out, and the verdict looks promising.

“On the rugged isle of Berk, a Viking boy named Hiccup defies centuries of tradition by befriending a dragon named Toothless. However, when an ancient threat emerges that endangers both species, Hiccup's friendship with Toothless becomes the key to forging a new future. Together, they must navigate the delicate path toward peace, soaring beyond the boundaries of their worlds and redefining what it means to be a hero and a leader,” reads the synopsis of the highly anticipated film.

Users have taken to the internet to give their opinions, with one person writing on IMDb, “The remake went far beyond my expectations. The casting was spot on-even though I had doubts at first, the performances felt genuine and convincing. Especially Hiccup and Astrid: I found myself reconnecting with them like it was the first time.

Visually, it's stunning. The world of Vikings and dragons feels totally believable. The direction respects the spirit of the original, while adding a more grounded and mature tone.”

Others called out Disney for their repeated live action failures, including the latest Snow White movie, “The long-awaited live-action adaptation of the beloved animated classic How to Train Your Dragon exceeds all expectations. Directed once again by Dean DeBlois and powered by John Powell's unforgettable score, the film stays about 95% true to the original story: a young Viking who forms an unlikely bond with the very creature his people are sworn to destroy.”

However, one person gave their critique of the film, writing, "The Live-Action HTTYD was very good, not as great as the original but they really justify some scenes. The only problem for this one is the pacing was off, the acting was mid and being a cash grab itself as a movie. But i'm glad it's becoming popular again since The Hidden World back in 2019.”

How To Train Your Dragon is playing in theaters now.
