Stirling Silver Discs

How to Train Your Dragon (2010)

After directing a film about the Icelandic band Sigur Rós , which will be remembered as one of the best documentaries of the story, Dean DeBlois returns to the big screen with his inseparable Chris Sanders, with whom he co-directed the hit Disney Lilo & Stitch to present a film produced by Disney dissidents, the increasingly successful Dreamworks.

Nominated for an Oscar for best animated film, How to Train Your Dragon was certainly a worthy competitor to the winner Toy Story 3 and ignored but pride The Illusionist, tapes that put the animation as one of the most outstanding contemporary film genres.

Set in a mythical land colonized by the Vikings, the film chronicles the struggle of a small town that is constantly ravaged by a plague of dragons, who have declared war against those who defend themselves in bloody battles to prevent the theft of their cattle.

the film's story takes us to places common and poses a series of characters we've seen repeatedly, however the likely development of the film becomes an intimate experience, thanks to proper handling of situations and emotional use of such developments, although we see hundreds of times continue to cause some emotional pleasure.

The Jay Baruchel simpleton usually lends his voice to the character of How to Train Your Dragon , a young man who does not have the physical abilities to be a ruthless Viking, but at the same time desperately seeking approval his father, who is also the dreaded chief of the tribe (Gerard Butler). Fear and the hatred felt by ancient Vikings flying creatures, put into question when the young protagonist strikes up a friendship with a fearsome dragon wounded in the fighting. It is this fact that motivates the main conflict of the tape and that tests the love between father and son and the people's survival.

Fun, direct and unpretentious, How to Train Your Dragon is a good movie, whose range reaches all ages enjoy, what a marvel with its advanced visual techniques and in its apparent simplicity fully meets the purpose for which it was filmed.
