"How to Train Your Dragon" is another step in the right direction for Dreamworks Animation. Along with most of the other major contenders in 3D Animation, Dreamworks has realized that Pixar's success is due not only to disciplined, beautiful character modeling/design and skilled animation, but in large part because the realize that without a good story, their movies are dead out of the gate.
Along with the surprising success and depth of character/story of 2008's Kung Fu Panda, this movie aims to give Pixar a run for their money. An excellent tale with a cast of interesting characters, "How to Train Your Dragon" is a treat that rivals Pixar's offerings. I caught this movie this weekend along with my 6 year old son, and I enjoyed it almost as much as he did.
Story is King.
On a side note, I did see this in 3D, and I must admit that the movie didn't gain much from it. Don't feel obligated to catch this one in the third dimension- it's equally enjoyable without the glasses.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
