A shy young Viking struggles to meet his village’s expectations of becoming a warrior. After encountering an injured dragon, he chooses understanding over violence and secretly forms an unlikely friendship, challenging his community’s long-held fears while discovering his own strengths.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a warm, adventurous animated fantasy with memorable creatures and broad family appeal; Not for you if predictable coming-of-age stories or slapstick humor are not your style.
