How to Train Your Dragon (2025)
It wasn't bad. It wasn't horrible. It's just that I like the original cartoon better. I do like Mason Thames as Hiccup. Almost word for word from the animated feature. He's got the look and mannerisms down so it wasn't bad. I don't like Nico Parker for Astrid. Granted, she did have blonde braids in her hair, but she was too thin for me. She was very acrobatic for the character but she wasn't tough enough for me. Not for that character. Gerard Butler as Stoick wasn't too bad, I was expecting something with a bit more girth for the character, but he wasn't bad. Again, almost word for word from the animated feature. I did love Nick Frost as Gobber the Belch. He was straight forward, he was funny and he was tenacious. Nick portrayed him very well and such a delight to watch. Julian Dennison tagged Fishlegs so well, I just couldn't separate him at all from the animated character. Perfect! And just too funny! The CGI for this film wasn't too bad. ...
