POSITIVES…
The visual graphics and animation never looked better in this franchise than they do here.
Hiccups connection with Toothless; and also Astrid, are this movie’s strengths.
The whole thing with Toothless trying to woo the Lightfury definitely entertained me, and are probably the main highlight of this movie.
Concluding last acts of this movie, should be enough justification for fans to see this. They are going to want to see what happens.
NEGATIVES…
Kinda wished the main plot was more engaging than what we got.
For that matter, I wished it didn’t feel like such a generic story.
Expect the cliche moments and predictable plot tropes.
On that note, the villain voiced by F. Murray Abraham; while he had his moments, also felt generally wasted in this movie.
I couldn’t help but think that this movie felt more like it was made out of obligation, than out of inspiration.
P.S….
I’m not holding my breath, but I wouldn’t mind seeing another Dreamworks Dragons TV series; as they were enjoyable for what they are. Maybe a new show that continues on from where this movie ends.
