How To Train Your Dragon Review (the Blogger's Digest Version)

I just saw Dreamworks' How To Train Your Dragon today with my brother Kory. I believe I've already stated that I have a general and automatic love for most things that are animated. So that was enough to go and see it.

But I don't think I was prepared for just how much I loved this movie. Part of me didn't want to (I have a standing bias against Dreamworks based upon past films). Part of me hoped it would fill the gap left by their previously totally awesome Kung Fu Panda. And the largest part of me was blown away.

I was smiling the whole time, start to finish. And that might be the highest compliment I can give to any movie. Now go see it.

I thought I'd take Will. Glad you enjoyed it so much. Exactly what was great? Everything?

Yes. Everything about it was great. Try to pay special attention to the little visual details on skin, fur, wood, etc. Plus, if you listen for it, there's some great little dialogue that's played down or done under-the-breath, usually when a scene is about to change.
