Ben y el dragón

This movie was clearly making a parody of how to train your dragon and used a lot of that in both the early story and visual jokes. I found the chemistry with both the protagonists and antagonists really funny. As well as many of the side characters' lines. All the character designs are amazing and unique, I especially liked the old dragon's design. Throughout the movie there were blink and you'd miss it visual gags to many films and tropes and it was all and all a fun film that managed to stay lighthearted when dealing with rather dark themes.

On Netflix it has a different title. Watched with my toddler, he's obsessed with dinosaurs & loves dragons, so I picked this for us on our Friday Night Movie Night. It was a cute film.

I am not familiar with the book so I can't comment on that aspect but I found this movie really fun. My three year old enjoyed it and I had a few chuckles at some of the dialogue. It's a enjoyable kids movie. Enjoy it for what it is, a fun kids movie!

From what I've seen in the comments people are calling this a rip off of how to train your dragon, Eragon, Moana. This film and story is adapted from a book written more than 2 decades ago. If these reviewers took 30 seconds to do a quick google search they would find that all of the movies that this one is "pulling ideas from" might in fact be taking ideas directly from Cornelia Funkes 'Dragon Rider'. Now this film did not do the original text justice but it is as original as a story gets and largely influences other dragon animations of the last 20 years. Unless of course you're suggesting that the author has super powers and was able to time travel, watch movies that would be released well into the future, and then pen a story about them, you people are nuts.

It's entertaining enough. My little one loves dinosaurs right now and thought that's what they were so she actually liked it. I like the voices though and nettlebeard is a pretty cool character. But some of the animation is a little outdated looking. Seems like it's be a cool book though.
