Weekend Movie Forecast: Clash of the Titans Vs. The Last Song

Opening to startlingly positive reviews is the new book-cum-animated-family-film How to Train your Dragon. The story follows a young Viking Teenager Hiccup, who, because he's a wimpy teenager, refuses to follow in his family's Dragon slaying ways only to then become friends with the very dragons his fore-bearer's occupy themselves with killing. HEAVY. Hey, anyone remember Dragonheart? Yea... us neither.

The scariest reviewer from Time Out New York, David Fear, says: "Rather, embedded among the standard platitudes of parental tolerance and teens finding their own way, is the notion that we should try to understand our 'enemies' instead of engaging them in perpetual, passed-through-generations warfare. Imagine that!

"Such subversive notions in a family-friendly, franchise-ready movie will undoubtedly have Glenn Beck et al., decrying it as an example of Hollywood liberalism. Everyone else will wonder where this movie was during the lead-up to the mess(es) we’re in now."
