How to Train Your Dragon is one of those movies you have to see in 3-D. While movies like Alice in Wonderland and Avatar are better in 3-D, How to Train Your Dragon lives for 3-D. The flight and battle scenes are amazing. This is a movie that will be cherished forever. HTTYD takes place on a faraway island where vikings battle dragons. The lead in the movie is Hiccup, son of the town chief. Hiccup has always wanted to live up to his fathers expectations. So when he shoots a dragon (a nightfury no less) he's very pleased with himself. But, when he goes to slay his pray, he realizes the dragons won't harm him unless he harms them. The CGI in this movie is breathtaking. Although, since it's from the same people who created Kung Fu Panda and Shrek, that's to be expected. I really wish all movies could be as good as this one. The voices were spot on. I loved the animation of Toothless (the nightfury) and Craig Ferguson is awesome as usual (not that I get to stay up late to see Craig Ferguson. Much.). I really enjoyed Gerard Butler's voice as Hiccup's dad. It's perfect for a Scottish place. I hope this movie does as well as Up did at the box office. I think it was every bit as good. If not better.
