Review of How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014) by Jay-R A — 31 Dec 2014

It's been a while since I watched the first movie so I don't remember much other than that there was a war between dragons and humans. I am glad this movie somehow summarized the first movie in some scenes in the movie without the flashback yada yada yada.

Compared to its original, this sequel feels a bit more matured and I liked how it does not underestimate its target audience and they just go with it in terms with its mature themes. Of course, it still had the humor that both kids and adults will love that will enhance their experience watching this movie.

The movie's plot was well-written, fast-paced and has no fillers at all which made this movie entertaining to watch. The character development is great in this movie especially on Hiccup and Toothless. After all, they're the stars of the movie.

The animation style in this movie is great to watch as you can even tell by its smallest details that the people who worked on this movie made sure that the animation in this movie will keep your eyes on the screen.

Overall, this sequel to the How To Train Your Dragon franchise will entertain everyone, both fans of the franchise as well as the general audience with its mature themes, entertaining plot and great character development.
