I really enjoyed this film. I saw it in the theater in 3D which was very impressive. The blue ray is not 3D but it is still enjoyable none the less. The movie is crystal clear and crisp while playing. Love the story line and the animation.

What's great about it: plot (story), audio/visual quality, special features
It's easy to say that the average person usually knows how to train dogs, cats, parrots, etc. Professional trainers and entertainers train lions, elephants, hawks, dolphins, etc.
Who would have thought that a toothpick-thin boy, who lacks both physical strength and athlete-like coordination, would be able to train one of the most vicious dragons through care, understanding, and friendship?
How to Train Your Dragon had to be one of the most lowly-anticipated movies of 2010. It was a so-called "Sleeper Hit" that provided satisfaction to children, teens, and adults. Like many others have said, the trailers did not do the movie any justice.
This movie ranks right up there with Toy Story and Ratatouille.
This Blu-ray set comes with two discs - a Blu-ray disc with the main and special features and a DVD copy. There isn't a great number of special features, but it is adequate considering the stunning visual and audio qualities. Even the soundtrack is really good.
How to Train Your Dragon is a film for anyone to enjoy. It's a must-have for any movie collection.

This movie is great for kids and adults alike. It even had me "on my toes" a few times. Keep in mind that it is PG, so it might not be great for very young viewers as it does contain some scarier scenes and a few phrases you might not want a child that age to adopt.

The movie was great! I think it's up there with the Shrek movies and Toy Story movies. I'll be honest, I didn't really want to see this movie when i first saw previews for it. My sister bought my family it for Christmas and we watched it, and loved it. I'm soo glad she bought it for us!

What's great about it: animation, voice acting, story
What's not so great: nothing
I love this movie. It's full of hilarious punch-lines, fantastic voice acting, and amazing animation. The story is good, but it's the animation and voice acting that really make this a masterpiece. EVERY ONE plays their role to perfection. And Toothless, the main dragon, is an amazing piece of animation...his movements and his expressions are so lifelike -- despite the fact that he is a fantasy character. Very well done.
The movie might be intended for kids, but (as an adult) I loved it. It's also been the request of several people on my Christmas list.

An Excellent Movie for both child and adult alike. It is both a Viking and a dragon movie,in more ways than you would probably think. Highly entertaining!

What's great about it: Great story with lots of heart, told on rich color canvas
What's not so great: Often relies on dumb jokes and cliches to find the humor
This was a great movie with a great story about a boy that doesn't quite fit in finding his place in the world. I was concerned that the depth of the 3D animated world wouldn't show through on a conventional Blu Ray disc, but was pleasantly surprised to find that this was not the case. Colors were sharp and clear, and even though it doesn't have the same depth as a 3D picture, you get a good feel for the world the animators created. The Legend of the BoneKnapper Dragon was a great addition to the disc set, though it doesn't quite compare to the film. This was a great addition to my collection and I recommend it to anyone who wants a family film that everyone can truly enjoy, not just the kids.

Saw this in theater in 3D IMAX, that was awesome. Saw it wqith my wife and we both loved it. We knew that when it came out on BR we would get it. Tried to get it the day released but my local BB stores were out. Made order onl;ine and got it within like a week. Have watched it once as a family, twice with my 18 year old, and twice on my own. HIGHLY RECOMMEND...IT IS GREAT.

Absolutely love this movie in theaters and on blu-ray. The image is crystal clear on my HDTV and the story is simple yet strong enough that I can watch it again and again. The extras include a short "episode" featuring many of the same characters that were in the movie, but it goes back and forth from the high quality 3D computer animated graphics we saw in the movie and a more traditional 2D drawn animation for the "flash backs" in the episode. The transition between the two styles was a little jarring for me, and the story and tone of the episode was definitely oriented to a more juvenile audience. But I still enjoyed it as an extra feature, along with the more traditional commentary and "making of" clips.

What's great about it: has something for everyone in the family
When it comes to Dreamworks, How to train your Dragon is definately my favorite now, it encompassed the whole family from my Toddler Daughter To my Military Husband. true to their previous movies they truly make it for everyone in the family not just for kids (ie the inuendos in Shrek etc).
Above all i loved how the voice of Hiccups dad is Gerard Butler that man is just amazing :)

What's great about it: Fast and easy
What's not so great: the option we got
I love the commodity of ordering online. I pick it up at the store, but the only thing I hate is that you guys don't get the DVDs with Blu-Ray-DVD-Digital copy like other stores do. And I just find out after I got it from you guys. Can you something about that. We got the Toy Story 3 Blu-Ray, but just the blu-ray, no DVD and digital copy which is kind of say, I couldn't return it because my kids open the box and ripped the wrapping paper.
That's all other than that, we enjoy buying at Best Buy

This is a great movie for family/kids. Before I bought this, I heard a lot of good things about this movie and it meets my expectation. The dvd package also comes with blu-ray and regular dvd. Therefore, if you dont have blu-ray player, you still can use the regular dvd player. We used blu-ray and the picture is so crisp clear. I have an 8 and 3 year-old watching the movie with us and my 8 year-old loved the movie, but my 3 year old didn't really grasp the whole movie and left half-way and started playing by himself in his room. Therefore, I concluded this movie is gearred toward a little bigger kids (>5). Overall this is a great movie! I greatly recommend it.

I think this is probably the best movie from Dreamworks Animation. Its a great story, with simply a great pace. The Blu Ray version is incredible, especially in the darken scenes of the Dragon Den, Viking Pubs and the final battle. I would recommend that add this to your movie collection.

What's great about it: great story, good price when first came out
What's not so great: dark as in color, a bit slow rewatching.
Really enjoyed this in the theater with my son just getting into dragons. Great tale. I noticed in the theater the movie was kind of dark, not as in tone but as in color, which is why maybe I don't enjoy it so much watching on my plasma at home, at least during the day. Maybe now that it's getting darker at night sooner, I'll try again.
I did not see Toy Story 3 in the theaters, as I wasn' much of a fan of the first two, but did by the blu ray. It's by far the more popular blu-ray in our home, it looks amazing, and I enjoyed it much more than first two, and actually have gone back and watched the first two and like them more now through my kids eyes, than I did when they came out.
As far as DVD extras, it was supposed to come with megamind cash and it didn't, the bestbuy.com was different than in the store, as in worse, and they eventually gave me the price difference, but it required second trip to the store.
Best DVD extra is the minimovie of another adventure trying to find this dragon that looks like a skeleton. It is really good, possibly prefer it to the original movie, as far as rewatchability, because it's short.
I'd rank How to Train Your Dragon high up the chain for boys, my daughter doesn't care for it. If you have young kids though I recommend Up, Monsters, Inc, Toy Story 3, Shrek 1 & 2, Kung Fu Panda. It's better than Monster Vs Aliens, recent Shrek feature films, I enjoyed it better than the Ice Age films as well.
