DreamWorks’ How to Train Your Dragon may suffer from an odd title, but it certainly grabs your attention. Thankfully, the brilliant animation, characters, and a pleasant variation on the traditional “a boy and his dog” plot keep that attention. HTTYD quickly brings you in with its main character, Hiccup, voiced by Jay Baruchel. He is a nerd/outcast archetype, something Baruchel seems to have found himself typecast as, but there is something of a sincerity to his voice and identifiability to his problem of not living up his father’s expectations. These are things that we’ve all seem before, but they are still welcome here because there is a genuineness to the performances in this film. Hiccup has a great sarcastic sense of humor, and the other teen characters help give the film authenticity, in spite of all the flying fire-breathing reptiles. There’s Astrid (America Ferrera), Snoutlout (Jonah Hill), Fishlegs (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), twins Ruffnut (Kristin Wiig) and Tuffnut (T.J. Miller). The bit of the Appatow gang that’s present here lend their improv skills to some the humorous conversations, and it works to the film’s benefit. Gerard Butler and Craig Ferguson also work great as the village chief and Hiccup’s dad Stoick and blacksmith Gobber respectively. Where this film really shines, other than the characters, are the visuals. The seas and skies are painted wonderfully. This is especially evident in the scenes where the characters are riding the dragons as mounts. The filmmakers knew that this would be the highpoint in the film, and special care was taken to beautifully and artfully depict the sensation of flight, as well as the creatures’ agility and speed. The plot can follow some predictable turns, as the archetype here is “a boy and his dog” but the twist that keeps this film going the fact this is a pretty cool dog. A dragon. And yes, the little boy in me screams “awesome!” at riding a dragon. It really is something that simple that drives this film, how awesome it would be to have a dragon as a pet. What propels this film to being great is the seriousness of the conflicts and the identifiable characters. A great one from DreamWorks, whose reputation is slowly approaching Pixar-like proportions. A
