Soaring Way Up High

How to Train Your Dragon 2 follows the common rule of sequels by making everything bigger, even though that isn't always enough to justify the series. In fact, it usually leads the franchise into a disaster, and thankfully this film is one of the rare which lives up to its promise. While it already provides the most breathtaking action and impressive visuals, it also able to expand the universe and give huge room for nice warmth beneath the bombast. Once again, the studio has put aside their recent style of broader gags and bullet speed pacing and settle down for a real storytelling that reminds us why animated movies are so appealing anyway. How to Train Your Dragon 2 has given all what you've wished for as a great sequel.

The plot sure does heightened into an epic installment, it could have been an easy throw away of cool effects, battle sequences, and humor, but the movie is smart to keep on following its own roots by settling more on the characterization of their world and Hiccup's life with his dragon and the tribe. To keep it from being a wheel spinning visual showcase, the story embeds itself with full of inspired emotions, example is when it explores the icy dragon cave. It wasn't only an exposition, it is mainly a developing relationship between Hiccup and his long-lost mother. The quieter moments of letting the once disconnected family reunite again captures the same heart of the boy and dragon friendship of the first movie, which certainly made it pretty endearing.

The film also spends its time exploring more places around and beyond the Isle of Berk. It's quite interesting to let the years pass by and make the young vikings grow mature, and how it depicts their maturity is pretty clever, like the hormonal attraction of Snotlout and Fishlegs to Ruffnut, in spite of fact their comic relief get a a bit way out of hand. The dragon species were also given enough intriguing details, essentially for the plot, which sort of recalls the book series of Cressida Cowell. This is a rich universe that makes the whole journey even bigger.

The voice acting is predictably great. Jay Baruchel still brings the same earnestness to Hiccup even when the character's new appearance has outgrown his voice. Gerard Butler remains to be perfect as Stoick The Vast, he lends more gravity to the character in this one. Cate Blanchett joins in and she appropriately gives a great amount of warmth to the role. The other cast did well enough at keeping things much alive. For the filmmaking, the direction handles a better pacing compared to the other quicker cuts of the last few animated films. It's an easier way to watch by concentrating each scene of getting know of the characters, either with or without any dialogue. The flying scenes have always been a tremendous ride with scale and fortitude. John Powell's score helps making it feel much powerful, and it gets even better with a Jónsi song in it.

Apart from Disney, these are the only animated films of Hollywood today that have a wider ambition other than selling off kids with cool visuals and absurdist humor. There is an actual story to be found here, even without following its source material. The typical elements of Dreamworks are still there, but is hardly noticed. It's nearly like the first film, except of course it's larger. It does justice to today's family fare, somewhat forgetting the current mediocrity and rather fills it with inspiration from the past. One thing that is missing in most of the genre's attempt of transcending their films is the sincerity to its heart. Every affection in How To Train Your Dragon 2 never felt forced and right there it soars way up high. And if we have learned something about training dragons from the past, then it is the same thing about sequels: You don't just yell at it.

A great sequel to a great first film

The original How to Train Your Dragon was a great, no, wonderful film that was not only the best DreamWorks film since The Prince of Egypt but also one of the best animated films of the 2000s. While it does start off a tad slow and not as endearingly simple as the original, this sequel was excellent(to me it beats Kung Fu Panda 2 as the best DreamWorks sequel) and almost as good. As with the first film the animation is amazing, and actually even better than that of the first, the character designs are a touch more expressive and the colours are richer and have more atmosphere. And I don't think even the first film had a character introduction as mind-blowing as that of Valka's. The soundtrack really gives the sense of fantasy and adventure and does so rousingly and beautifully. How to Train Your Dragon 2 is strongly written, with smart quirky humour, suspenseful conflict and plenty of emotional parts without being overly-sentimental. The story scores highly too with more depth and darkness than the first- which really succeeded in how simple it was- yet the quirkiness and wonder as well as the touching sentiment that was in the original film are present here as well. Which was impressive for a film that had a lot going on. The characters and their back-stories are intriguing(remarkable for a film with the amount of characters it has), especially the emotional scenes between Hiccup and his mother and the endearing man and beast friendship between Hiccup and Toothless(which maybe could have been more prominent), with the exception of the comparatively one-dimensional villain Drago, who was still malevolently voiced and well-designed. Of the characters, personal favourite is Toothless, who never speaks but has as much impact as and even more so than other characters that do, who is even more expressive and adorable as in the original. The voice acting is excellent, especially from Jay Baruchel and Gerard Butler. In conclusion, a great sequel and almost as good. 9/10 Bethany Cox

Pretty much what you'd expect in any sequel

The best thing about "How to Train Your Dragon" was its originality. While "Toy Story 3" won the Oscar (hardly an original film), I much preferred the dragon movie. The second best thing were the eye- popping CGI graphics. The sequel, "How to Train Your Dragon 2" at least features one of these things and is worth seeing despite being completely unoriginal and, in some ways, a step back for the franchise.

The film features most of what you'd expect--a formulaic baddie, characters growing into themselves and the great flight scenes. What I did NOT expect was the unnecessary and confusing introduction of Hiccup's mother--something that NEVER made much sense and made her seem like a horrible person. The tribe didn't understand her and her love of dragons...so she left her husband and newborn baby!! Huh?! To make it even more confusing is that Hiccup, his dad and everyone else accepted her back with open arms. Call me odd, but I thought this entire plot line made no sense and was very poorly realized. Yet, despite all these defects, the film is entertaining and nice to look at...but nothing more.
