A great example of a “girls get it done” style of movie that’s not telling you about how great women are, but instead shows you how great they can be, all without being performative or reducing the concept to a trope that’s so over repeated that it’s more of a meme than a useful story element in modern movies. Millie Bobby Brown continues to impress me with her role selections and implementations, though I’ll say that I wasn’t a fan of her hair in this flick at all and her character looked best when she was riding a horse into or out of various locations.
It’s a fun dragon movie, so if you’re into such things, this is going to be right up your alley, especially if you enjoy the devious style of dragons that all have horrible plans for horrible people.
