How to Train Your Dragon 2













Hiccup and Toothless are back in this sequel to the spectacular "How to Train Your Dragon."  While not quite as good or fresh, it retains almost every element that made the original so good.  The protagonists are still as great as ever, the animation is jaw-dropping and there are some legitimately emotional moments.  However, this follow-up suffers from some of the same problems that the other Dreamworks sequels have had in the past.  The filmmakers tend to work harder for laughs by overworking the same jokes that aren't very funny in the first place.  If you get past that, you'll find a worthy sequel that's highly entertaining and fairly engrossing.
