Movie Review: How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014)

Five years after the events of How to Train Your Dragon, the town of Berk is a very different place than it was.  Instead of Vikings and Dragons warring with one another, now they live in symbiotic harmony; each viking having become a dragon rider like the boy (now man) who brought them together: Hiccup.  Seriously wouldn’t you try to phase that name to something a little more manly by the time you’re 20, which is how old Hiccup is as we rejoin the adventures of the dragon-riding Vikings of Berk.  So does our return adventure live up to the surprise hit that was the original?  Not quite, but it’s still a great deal of fun.
