I Clapped Slowly and Hard. Dreamworks has Finally gotten out of their dark and muddy slum... for now.

Rating: 9/10 (21 June 2014)

I will put this short and simple with no spoilers.
How To Train Your Dragon 2 is Dreamwork's first Great movie in a long time. Its even up to the standards of Pixar Films such as Wall-E, Up and Toy Story 3. The Director of the First film returns and thank god because if someone else inexperienced had gotten their hands on this film it would have gone all downhill for Dreamwork's reputation as a animation studio.
All I have to say is Wow. The animation is breathtaking and the story is emotional. Something that lacked in Dreamworks movies. The only thing I will say about the story... its sad. It really is and I loved it because it was a huge change of things for animated films that have been released in a while. Sure Disney does sad stuff, but they always have! Dreamworks has rarely done it. The only ones I can think of having some emotional stuff in them is Puss in Boots and Shrek the Third. So this is a breath of fresh air for Dreamworks. Also, the story is actually developed with perfect care unlike The Croods where it was all style but no substance.
The characters are the best thing about this movie. Mostly because of the way they interact. Hiccup and Toothless have an unlimited amount of chemistry together and you never know what will happen next with them and lots happen with them in the movie.
The ending. My god. I will not spoil it. But... my god. I loved the end also. It was astonishing.
So if you can, see this movie in theaters. I don't care if you see it in 2D or 3D. Its just a great film. I loved it.
