How to Train Your Dragon, 2010
"Long ago up North on the Island of Berk, the young Viking, Hiccup, wants to join his town's fight against the dragons that continually raid their town. However, his macho father and village leader, Stoik the Vast, will not allow his small, clumsy, but inventive son to do so. Regardless, Hiccup ventures out into battle and downs a mysterious Night Fury dragon with his invention, but can't bring himself to kill it. Instead, Hiccup and the dragon, whom he dubs Toothless, begin a friendship that would open up both their worlds as the observant boy learns that his people have misjudged the species. But even as the two each take flight in their own way, they find that they must fight the destructive ignorance plaguing their world." -IMDb
Best Part:I really liked the story. It was original and well thought through. I liked the fact that when Hiccup was fixing the tail it didn't work on the first try and it wasn't as simple as taping paper to the tail. I will also like any movie that makes big animals - like dragons - seem cute, adorable, and cat-like.
Worst Part:
The music wasn't great. Nothing stood out to me during the movie. The music should emphasize whatever emotion the director wants you to feel and I didn't get that feeling. I was not horrible though either.
