How to train your dragon 2 (2014)

Director: 

Dean Deblois

Plot synopsis: 

Sequel to the 2010 animated film ‘How to train your dragon’ the film picks up five years after the last one finished. The whole of the village of Berk has made peace with the dragons but there’s a new enemy rising. Drago Bludvist is building an army of dragons and only Hiccup and his friends can stop him from taking over the world.

First thoughts: 

I was really excited about this film because I loved the first one, and to be honest the second Hiccup took his helmet off in the trailer I was sold.

Rating: 5 Stars


Review (Unspoiled): 

This film was fantastic. Even better than the first it took the story to another level. Within the first five minutes we saw Toothless in action and the whole scene was so majestically animated that it easily brought across the experience of flying. The characters from the last film were re-introduced in such a fun way, the teens now 20 it was shocking how far they had developed but each had obviously become even greater characters with time. Some of the voices were hard to place, especially Eret the dragon trapper. I’ll just save you the trouble, its Kit Harington, also known as Jon Snow from Game of Thrones.

Bottom line:

Fantastic, full of laughs and a few tears, a perfect all rounder.And this is coming from someone who doesn't usually like animated films. Aside classic Disney.


Recommend: 

Defiantly, its one for all the family, but I think more enjoyable for the teenage audience because of some of the jokes made.

Spoiler Section:

Best Character: 

Tuffnut without a doubt. She was hysterical. It took me ages to figure out who she reminded me off till it clicked; Jenna Marbles. I loved Cloudjumper as well, his/her interactions with Toothless where precious.

Worst Character: 

Drago, of course, self-explanatory.

Best Moment: 

Either Tuffnut's moments or the parent’s duet.

Worst Moment: 

The fathers death, once again, self-explanatory.


Please feel free to comment your own views on the film if you've watched it, I would love to know how others felt about it.
