How to Train Your Dragon

Since the movie got released, it has been a hell of while. And I have already watch this movie for like thousand times. However each time I watched it, it made me touched and kinda sentimental. The reason is simple: Touching story-line with humorous story-telling and the excellent animation,and, most important of all, for me, the music. The music is so characteristic that it injects energy into well-animated scenarios, and touches the true emotion buried deep inside your mind, drive a grown man like me to drop a tear before I even know it.


About the voice acting, at first, I didn't like how Hiccup's sound is like. Not a hero-type. However, after getting into the story, I realized that it is on purpose. And the voice acting is how all the humors are presented. The sarcastic conversations are the funniest.Actually it seems that the sarcasm is one of remarkable features of animations by DreamWork. Speaking of DW, you cannot forget Shrek. That make sense now. Hiccup is just like Shrek, but tinier.

the story is a cliche, not much surprise. The excellent part is the characters and the relationship between them. Each characters has his/her unique features which make him/her memorable. Hiccup is kind of whinny, while Astrid (the blonde) is aggressive. And Toothless is wit like a cat. (somehow I think Toothless IS a cat in flying reptile form.) There are geek-like character (the fat) and the bully guy. The most interesting scenario is the part that Hiccup and toothless built up their friendship.
