Enjoyment for older kids and adults!
This movie provides a great story line, dialogue that isn't just for kids, incredible 3D quality, and an unexpected ending. No swearing, no sexual content, no drug or alcohol use. But...there are some pretty scary scenes that should caution parents before taking younger children. A few of the dragon scenes are close up and in your face with gnashing teeth, fire, and very fast flying sequences, so be warned. The main character goes from zero to hero, battling his own fears as he learns about dragons and their terrible secret. The mentor of this young hero is an older village blacksmith who has some incredibly funny moments and is also a wise counselor to the leader of the village. There is the typical yet funny relationship between a father who wishes his son was like the father and a son who wishes his father would see that he can't be like his father.
