Pixar's latest animated movie Hoppers delivers equal parts laughter and compassion with a sprinkle of tear-jerking scenes, as the studio's narratives are known to do. Hoppers does a great job of interrogating these issues from multiple points of view.

While certain details in specific scenes were modified and some dialogue subtly shifted to enhance the story, the new version follows the original plot's three-act structure to a tee. Thames does a great job balancing the tone set by Baruchel with Hiccup's dry humor and making the lines his own, infusing them with earnestness and urgency. Ultimately, this first installment has laid the foundation for the theme of nature vs. nurture and answering the age old question of whether man and creature can get along.
