Hollywood animations have always been a huge hit among children. Directed by Dean BeBlois and Chris Sanders, this week’s release ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ is a remarkable 3D animation flick that boasts of a great storyline and extremely likeable characters.Voiced by Hollywood stars- Gerard Butler, America Ferrera and Jay Baruchel, ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ is the story of young Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III (Jay Baruchel). Hiccup is the son of a Viking hero (Gerard Bulter), who is a celebrated dragon slayer. Hiccup is considered a total waste by his Viking father. What more, even the girls ignore him for his sickly frame and his failure to slay dragons. Even his crush, Astrid (America Ferrara) ignores him. One night Astrid finds Hiccups sharing fish with one of the most dangerous dragons. Astrid is shocked to discover that he enjoys riding the ferocious creature, whom he should be killing at the very first sight. However, this unique friendship between Hiccup and the dragon makes one realise that dragons are not perilous and should not be killed for they can be friends too. Enjoy the bumpy ride with Hiccups and the dragon this weekend! Ratings: Three cheers for this one!
