What a beautiful, emotional and funny ride

Rating: 8/10 (17 March 2015)

This movie is absolutely amazing. I loved the first HTTYD and wasn't really eager to see the second instalment. As of late, most of the sequels in the animation genre were in no way able to live up to their predecessor, but HTTYD 2 totally surpassed it.
I felt such a strong connection to Hiccup and Toothless and their bond was really well told. All of the characters were more in dept and multilayered than in the previous HTTYD.
The story was believable and I liked how Hiccup was searching for what he was meant to be. It was far from predictable and kept you on the edge of your seat. The animation itself was gorgeous. The dragons were very original considering there are dozens or maybe hundred of different dragons in this film. The environment was absolutely beautiful and convincing.
The soundtrack was magnificent, both thrilling and emotional. Without spoiling anything I must say that the soundtrack is a great contributing factor in making me cry at a certain point in the movie.
When you are a fan of the first HTTYD definitely go see this one. When you want to be entertained, moved, touched and amazed, this is the animation movie to see. I would recommend this to anyone.
