That dragon is a crocodile

First of all, I want to say that the translation of "How to Train Your Dragon" is confusing. Looking at the whole thing, I didn’t even see a dragon scale. The word "How to train the dragon" was swaggered on the poster. From beginning to end, the only creature with scales was a fat crocodile. Adding a fire-breathing device on your back is the so-called "dragon"? Not only does this kind of scoring mislead everyone, but it also brings disappointment back to the audience who originally had high expectations after they walked out of the cinema.
The film mainly tells the story of Justin dreaming of inheriting his grandfather's career, and ignoring the opposition of his father who studied law, leaving home to pursue the road of becoming a real knight. The characterization part feels very lacking, and the film has no bright spots and is very plain. The character network is mainly divided into three parts, the Justin family line, the royal line, and the knight line, interspersed with a variety of characters in the restaurant. Justin returned to the restaurant for the second time and played the big security guard out of the restaurant. Once, both times I used soy sauce to add a little funny atmosphere. The factor used for funny, if the protagonist himself repeatedly or continuously shakes the burden, it is not a problem, but as a dispensable soy sauce party role, the two appearances are only for funny, inevitably the suspicion of deliberately taking up the length of the film. What is also puzzling is how the heroine likes Justin so inexplicably. As the protagonist, Justin was trained in the Cavaliers Academy, but the details were arranged in a sloppy way. There was nothing outstanding, and he almost fell asleep several times.
In summary, the name translation is not smart, and the storytelling is verbose, which may be viewed with younger children.

Justin and the Knights of Valour quotes

  • [Justin reveals he wants to be a knight]

    Reginald: Knights are outlawed. You would be breaking the law, and I will not let my son do that.

    Justin: Maybe the law's wrong.

    Reginald: What? Now listen. Knights no longer exist because we don't need them. You will be twice the hero when you learn the letter of the law rather than the inarticulate ravings of the sword.

  • Gran: You'll make a terrible lawyer. You're honest and not a very good liar.
