The title logo sucks and makes it look like the movie is called DRAGON or DRAGON 3D which is retarded

When the movie hasn't even come out yet is usually the time studios dole out money to critics to give positive reviews.

I don't know why but the main character's voice acting really bugs me

I just saw it. Overall it's a 9/10 for me.

Good:
The animation was exceptionally awesome for dreamworks, especially in 3D.
The character designs were really nice.
Most of the characters had nice depth.
The acting for the characters was really good. Voice and animation.
The story was good, I didn't have many issues with how it was written. Not very predictable at all.
Toothless was adorable.

There was nothing really bad about it for me that others might agree on. Like it uses plot devices that sort of annoyed me (like saying the same lines at the end that were said at the beginning or middle of the movie). Some other things that are just my taste as well.

I think it's just all-around good. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Yeah it was pretty good, I enjoyed it

there are some people with insane talent there

look at the 2D segments of kung fu panda (which is how the entire film should have been animated imo)

hopefully shrek 4 will bomb and they'll realise they need to stop making pop culture referencing fartjoke shit like that and aim for more original stuff

Holy ff it's at 97%

I honestly wasn't expecting much because the trailers for the movie look pretty friggin generic, but holy fff this movie is GOOD. I am thoroughly surprised at how well paced this movie was, how well each character was developed, how genuine the chemistry was between each character was, the quality of the cinematography (Oh baby the lighting! Oh the lighting!), the absolute believability of the character animation, etc.

Really, really good movie.

[spoiler] The only thing I can really complain about is the big dragon at the end. If I had to nit pick about anything, the moment the kids started attacking it by themselves and not get hurt it lost its danger and became comical which ruined the flow for me.

Also they could have built up the tension between the big dragon and its minions, finishing with the other dragons turning on the big one after Toothless and co. start attacking it. And I know it's cliche, but it would have been a good point at which the vikings could have started working with the dragons too (of course, the big dragon would have beaten the crap out of every one of them and Hiccup would have still needed to have saved the day in the end, but it that last boss fight just didn't have the tension that it could have. Not saying it sucked because it was still really good, but it could have been better

I went without having high hopes, but I was actually very surprised about this movie. It's...good. REALLY good. The best Dreamworks has made! Kung Fu Panda was good, but Dragons is top on the chart! Amazing graphics (worth the extra bucks and dirty lenses to watch in 3-D), great character movement, unique characters, chemistry that develops and works smoothly, and good writing. What I loved the most were the designs and personality for the dragons. Toothless is perhaps the cutest dragon in the movie, but also not making us forget that he's intelligent and can be lethal in combat. I'm going to have to agree a little with Thor...the build-up to that scene was rather anti-climatic...but the size and movement of the dragon - that power - left me breathless to think about that. Could have improved just a bit without changing the pace. The ending...oh god...it's so bittersweet. I don't want to give it away, but it really makes you bond more with Hiccup and Toothless.

tl;dr This movie is worth seeing, especially in 3-D.

COMPLETELY solid story with beautiful designs and choreography (FRIGGIN' AWESOME FLIGHT SCENES). The only thing I wish I saw more of were more species of dragons! The main ones we saw were cool and all, but when Hiccup flipped through the book and read about the other dragons, I wanted to see them too!

Toothless is a stealth bomber dragon of awesome.

Gonna rewatch it in 3D. It's THAT good~<3
