Live-Action 'How to Train Your Dragon' Review: A Worthy Successor or Safe Remake?

The world premiere of the live-action "How to Train Your Dragon" took place recently in the US. Film reviewer Straw Hat Goofy attended and provided an in-depth review. Goofy stated, "This movie hits all the emotional beats that you love from the original." He praised the casting, particularly Gerard Butler as Stoick, noting the "smart move" of bringing him back. However, Goofy also pointed out instances where the film "plays it safe" in its imitation of the animated version. Despite this, he concluded that the film is "a more immersive cinematic experience" and that "it's going to be hard not to love this film."
