How To Train Your Dragon

I've always had a passion for animated movies, and I've liked the animated features that Dreamworks have done (although they have never beaten anything by Pixar so far) so I thought I'd give this movie a go.
The story is about a boy called Hiccup, who wants to be a dragon killer. The village he lives in is attacked by dragons constantly, the village men are huge Viking warriors who battle them and Hiccup is...well...not.
Hiccup finds a dragon (which he calls Toothless) he had caught with a contraption he invented..but instead of killing it as he wanted to, he released it. He then trains to kill dragons, where he learns all about dragons, and hears about Night Furies, which happens to be the breed Toothless is. Hiccup and Toothless become friends, and he learns more about them that grasses that make them docile and fish they cannot eat, and Hiccup also makes the dragon a new tail fin so he can fly again.
In the end, after a huge battle, Viking and dragon learn to coexist in harmony.
The movie isn't too bad and had a feelgood factor to it was well as a message of tolerance and understanding.
This movie is also available in 3D, although I'm not sure it would be worth seeing in 3D.
How To Train Your Dragon is rated U and in cinemas now.
