More Disney than Tim Burton

The movie has some really fun scenery and effects, but is much more Disney than a typical Tim Burton movie. I expected the movie to run closer to the deep political currents and dark realities as written by Lewis Carroll; instead I watched a whimsical movie no doubt filmed so that Disney can make a new ride based upon it. That being said, kids may still find some scenes confusing and disturbing so it may be best to only go with older kids.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Mediocre movie at best.

The cinematography and post-apocalyptic scenery was very good, otherwise this movie was disappointing. If you don't like being spoon-fed massive dosages of religion, then I would avoid this movie at all costs. If you're a Denzel Washington fan, then see it only for his performance; he is really good in this role.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Fantastic Movie - Great for all ages!

This movie is destined to be a classic! I attended the late night showing and, even in a theater full of only adults, the laughter, gasps, and applause was non-stop! I would say that's pretty rare for a family-oriented animated movie. How To Train Your Dragon is a wonderful movie: witty, heartwarming, engaging, and truly funny. It's a fantastic adventure good for all ages. I highly recommend seeing it again and again!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
