How To Train Your Dragon (2010)
HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON (2010) ¢ ¢ ¢
D: Dean DeBlois
An action-oriented animated feature about a Viking boy who goes to dragon-killing school and learns there's a whole different way to deal with dragons. Not all dragons, but most of them. The Vikings speak in a variety of English accents - none of them sound Scandinavian - but when they sail into battle, you'd better get out of their way. And when was the last time you saw a PG-rated cartoon that acknowledged the potential real-life impact of heavy-duty fighting, not just in terms of victory and defeat, or life and death, but amputations and artificial limbs? Gerard Butler, America Ferrera, Jonah Hill and Kristin Wiig supply some of the voices. John Powell composed the rousing musical score.
