"How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World" Film Review

How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World Rating: 3/5 By: Nathaniel Simpson After two very successful films from Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, they needed to hit a home run once again to conclude the How to Train Your Dragon trilogy. In the effort to satisfy the fans in how the series will end, DeBlois gives us How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World . Not having seen any of these movies before, I was the most excited for this one as it seems like it has a promising premise, beautiful animation, and a very climatic ending to the franchise. While it does have beautiful animation and great performances, the story here simply doesn't work for me. I feel like the movie kind of moves its way through the motions at a snail's pace, and doesn't earn the payoff it is trying to go for at the end of the film. After the death of Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler) in the previous film, it is now up to Hiccup (Jay Baruchel) to take over the mantle of chief a...

"How to Train Your Dragon 2" Film Review

How to Train Your Dragon 2 Rating: 5/5 By: Nathaniel Simpson Dean DeBlois' and Chris Sanders' How to Train Your Dragon does a great job of setting up the isle of Berk, as well as this unique and crazy cast of characters. The film ends with the citizens of Berk deciding to accept dragons into their community and form bonds with different breeds of dragons. It shows how Hiccup (Jay Baruchel) was able to change everyone's mind, allowing for more peace and tranquility in the land. Because of this, it allows DeBlois to return to this world and play with these characters and these stories that him and Sanders created. Thankfully, the dreaded sequel curse doesn't apply here as we see DeBlois and this franchise at their best, crafting a movie with fantastic animation, an amazing, heartfelt story with stakes, and wonderful character development that exceeds what they were able to do in the first picture. Now with dragons being accepted into society, Hiccup...

"How to Train Your Dragon" Film Review

How to Train Your Dragon Rating: 4/5 By: Nathaniel Simpson Dragons are the stories of myths and legends, with vikings having a complex love/hate relationship with them in Norse mythology. There have been stories with fearsome and terrifying dragons and viking riders, conquering lands and destroying everything in their paths. However, Chris Sanders' and Dean DeBlois' film is more focused on what if there was a viking that didn't want to kill dragons or cause destruction. What if there was just a smaller viking, the outcast of his village made even worse as his father is the chief, who just wants to be different than the path he was put on at birth, and ends up friending one of the rarest dragons in the world? Their film paints this picture quite well in the first film of the How to Train Your Dragon series, which is such a fun joyride from beginning to end, despite some flaws in terms of story and character development. That smaller viking's n...
