Certainly, by all accounts, the best film ever made about a hot tub time machine, this is a dumb, dirty, disastrously-made comic gem that finds a sloppy bal...
Shrek and Kung Fu Panda can step aside, Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders have delivered the best Dreamworks animation with How To Train Your Dragon. The story is one of a familiar mold, but the way it is delivered is impeccable....
