CriticsCritics: 70
AudienceAudience: 7.9

On the Viking island of Berk, a young outsider challenges generations of fear when he befriends a dangerous dragon. As their bond grows, he begins questioning the conflict between Vikings and dragons, forcing his community to reconsider long-held beliefs about courage, family, and cooperation.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this family adventure if you value spectacular dragons, emotional friendships, and faithful remakes; Not for you if you want a fresh story or prefer the animation’s livelier humor and charm.
