I'd give it a 9.5. It's an eight. [small][small][small]I take it back. The more I look into it, the more bad things I see....[/small][/small][/small]

Why?

I didn't like how Eret just suddenly joins the dragon riders. AND, the ending was too sweet. Other than a death, there really wasn't anything heartbreaking or whatever.

Did he do it out of nowhere? Or was it gradual?

Astrid and Stormfly win him over during the course of the movie.

7/10

When it works, it works brilliantly. The presentation is impeccable, the action sequences are generally good, and some of the basic ideas are brilliant. The problem is in the execution. There are significant stretches that don't work, significant plot points make no sense, two of the three important new characters are just plain dull, and characters are frequently idiots.

Oh, and in the third act, it basically turns into a My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic movie. As a brony, I don't have a problem with that as such (heck, it's a darn sight better than the actual MLP: FiM movie we got), but this is hardly the place for it.

I'll go into more detail later, so expect a full review in the next couple of days at the latest.

Do you want spoilers? Or what?
I think it was just a bit too fast.

I'd give it about a 9/10.

Fantastic film, but not without flaws. I need to see it again, but I remember not liking Drago that much. I thought he was kind of dull for a villain and didn't get enough motivation for his actions. That being said, I loved the vast majority of it and some of the story choices they make are brilliant. I also love watching the relationship between Hiccup and Toothless develop as it does.

I would give it a 9/10 also. The villains had little development and there were numerous times Drago just stood and watched things happen when he had a chance to kill Stoick, Valka etc.

10000/10

I havent even seen it

Okay, that rating's just impossible, and you know it. Of course, even perfection is impossible from anything produced by humans, but hey, rounding and all that.

And boy, if those are your honest expectations, then you will be very disappointed, and that will not be the fault of the movie.

Take it easy! Yeesh, people have a right to be excited.
