"How to Train Your Dragon"

This movie was soooo CUTE!!! I really enjoyed watching this movie. I think it is great how it encourages children that they can be heroes even if they do not meet the typical standards. I also like how it portrays the parent-child relationship. Hiccup and his father butt heads a lot, but it showed how in the end they can both get along once they develop a respect for each other and their different views. How to Train Your Dragon illustrates the concept that many people are afraid of anything different from normal, and how people who go against the social norm are often criticized. However, there was a happy ending to this story. Everyone in the viking village finally accepted Hiccup's view that dragons really are not bad creatures, and they all live happily ever after! =)
