How to Train Your Dragon 4K 2025 Ultra HD 2160p

The plot continues to revolve around the conflict between teenager Ikkink (Mason Thames) and the cruel, demanding world of adults. The inhabitants of the island of Oluh are accustomed to considering dragons their enemies — the entire Viking culture revolves around their extermination. But Ikkings is not a warrior. He is sensitive, awkward, observant, and forgiving. When the hero manages to shoot a dragon for the first time, he is unable to finish off the frightened creature. This act becomes a turning point in the story — his friendship with a Night Fury named Toothless not only changes the hero's life, but also turns the Vikings' world upside down.

User Review

I'll start by saying that this film is difficult to perceive as a remake. Nothing has been reimagined or adapted to the realities of the modern world; it has simply been “modernized,” and not in a good way. Video game remakes and remasters are a good analogy. What we have here is a remaster. The film repeats the original cartoon frame by frame, with the same action, the same locations for the characters, and even the same camera angles. The only differences are when real actors cannot repeat a scene, or when it is necessary to add our favorite “diversity”: the Vikings are now not Scandinavians, but people from all over the world, Astrid contributes a touch of feminism, Bully is body-positive, as if Fishlegs couldn't handle it, there are more people with disabilities among the Vikings, not just Plevaka, although I shouldn't complain, considering how well it fits in with reality.

The pace of the narrative has slowed down due to the participation of real people, and the battles are no longer as dynamic, which is obvious—how could they repeat this without injuries? The music from the original starts at exactly the same moments as before, but due to the slower pace, it either doesn't fit the moments or cuts off completely.

It should be noted that the dragons were made beautiful, and the graphics are good, but there is a fly in the ointment here as well. I don't know why, but the authors reduced the scenes with Toothless and removed many moments where he was cute, smart, playful, in general, where all the qualities that made him so beloved were displayed. And the chemistry with Hiccup is no longer as evident, and here too it is understandable what kind of chemistry we can talk about when a young actor has to become real friends with a green hanging ball?

All of this led me to a reasonable question: why was this film made in the first place? They repeat the original frame by frame, sometimes changing it for the worse. And the answer is simple: money! To milk the fans, they repeat everything, add some “diversity” to appeal to a wider audience, spice it up with some decent computer graphics, and voilà, a masterpiece is ready. But it's completely derivative and can't compare to the original, which hasn't even had time to become outdated. It's only 15 years old and still looks great. The result is an association with the video game industry, where big-name studios churn out their legendary games, improve the visuals a little, and sell them again as new products.

Has the crisis of ideas really reached Hollywood? When investors only want to make a profit on well-trodden paths, without creating new exciting stories. If so, I'm very sorry.
