Why is this? After all, it holds all those clichés that can be tiresome – the misfit becoming the hero, the parent (Gerard Butler) stuck in a mindset that challenges their protagonist child, the creature that must be hidden from the authorities ( E.T, anyone?).
Loosely based on the 2003 children’s book by British author Cressida Cowell and from the minds of DreamWorks, HTTYD puts viewers into a world of wonder and beauty, be it flying through the sky on the back of a winged giant or dodging a fireball as part of an epic battle.Īrriving between the so-so Monsters vs Aliens and the disappointing Shrek Forever After, HTTYD received incredible reviews and still holds up 10 years after its release. Raising it as a friend, instead of fighting it as his fellow villagers expected, we witness the transformation of our protagonist from meek to heroic as he paves his way through the barbaric archipelago of the How to Train Your Dragon world. A long time ago in a faraway land, there lived a boy named Hiccup (Jay Baruchel) and he trained a dragon.
