Loosely based on the Cressida Cowell book series about a teenage boy named Hiccup (Baruche) who aspires to be a dragon slayer just like everyone else admirable in his mythic Viking community. Due to Hiccup's small stature, his goals seem unlikely, until he successfully injures a rare Night Fury (a highly intelligent breed of dragon evolved for speed and stealth)… but he instead befriends it, suddenly losing all desire to pursue a career in slaying these misunderstood creatures. One can't help but reminisce on the funny scenes in SUPERBAD, what with common cast and crew members Jonah Hill and Christopher Mintz-Plasse in supporting roles, and Victor Pesavento and Mark Graham in the music department. All-in-all, a magical movie for adults and children alike—a true family flick. It's easy to become attached to the dragons since they are obviously modeled shamelessly after cute animals that we keep as pets (the dragons purr like cats for cryin' out loud!—how can you not like them?). If dragons were real, your kid would want one after seeing this movie. Available in 3D, but it's still breathtaking even in 2D.
