    The ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ Live-Action Remake Brings Nothing New to the Table – The Cinematic Schematic

    Caleb Masters reviews the live-action remake of the beloved 2010 DreamWorks classic, How to Train Your Dragon, ahead of its Friday, June 13th release.

    This version is directed by Dean DeBlois, one-half of the duo who brought us the original animated feature. The film features Gerard Butler returning as Stoick, alongside an entirely new cast.

    After watching Disney bring in the big bucks from “live action” remakes for over a decade, DreamWorks has decided it wants a piece of the pie.

    Does their most popular franchise have the creative juice to justify a new take?

    Check out Masters’ full review by clicking play, and subscribe to The Cinematic Schematic for more in-depth review discussions.


    About How to Train Your Dragon

    According to IMDB, How to Train Your Dragon is described as:

    As an ancient threat endangers both Vikings and dragons alike on the isle of Berk, the friendship between Hiccup, an inventive Viking, and Toothless, a Night Fury dragon, becomes the key to both species forging a new future together.
