Sixteen-year-old Hiccup Horrendous Haddock wants to be a real Viking and help protect his village from ravening dragons. But he is young, skinny and weak. He compensates by inventing clever weapons as he labors as an apprentice to the local blacksmith, Goober the Belch. He succeeds in making a cannon that shoots a bola, the Argentine rope-and-balls tangle device. It works, entangling a Night Fury dragon. But he loses track of the dragon, and no one believes him.

The publicity release bills this movie as "Ballerina: From the World of John Wick." The delightful Anna de Alma, a Cuban-born beauty that I first saw in the 2016 "War Dogs," stars in the title role. In this John Wick spin-off, we expect the protagonist to shoot a lot of bad guys. We are not disappointed. And de Alma does some of her killing while wearing a sequined mini-dress.

In "Bring Her Back," Australian twin brothers Danny and Michael Philippou have given the world a film that will twist your guts. It's a great followup to their stupendously successful "Talk to Me."The sinister, sometimes revolting film begins with an accidental death. Two teens, Piper and Andy, half-siblings, one blind, lose their dad to a shower accident. Placed into foster care with an odd but seemingly well-meaning foster mom, Laura, things quickly go downhill.

“Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning” is the most spectacular stunt movie of this century, so far. Tom Cruise is justly famous for his amazing, terrifying stunts, and he raises the bar here. The “Mission Impossible” team must save the world from a self-aware AI called the Entity. The Entity has decided that humans need to be eliminated for the good of the planet, or at least for the good of the Entity. The AI is infiltrating and taking over the nuclear arsenals of all the nuclear-capable nations.
