Dave Calhoun
Hats off to Dreamworks for offering some bold surprises in a respectable sequel filled with moments of humour and emotion among its ample noise and movement.
Bruce Diones
The writer and director Dean DeBlois takes the comedy to a deeper, more satisfying place than he did in the original franchise-launching animated film.
Peter Rainer
Overlong and overly busy but more emotionally powerful than its predecessor.
Wesley Morris
The entire film is a romance -- visually, parentally, ecologically. It's got the emotional, humorous, exciting sweep you want from a summer movie.
James Berardinelli
Although there are times when bits of the movie feel extraneous, the production as a whole comes across more like an organic extension of the original tale than something tacked on purely to score...
Bob Mondello
It's clear that [director Dean DeBlois] took inspiration from the first Star Wars trilogy - not a bad model for breathing new life, and yes, a bit of fire, into one of Hollywood's more nuanced...

Great but rushed This movie does exactly what a sequel should do. It extends the mythos of the original film, and is on par with the original in quality. While not quite as good as the original is certain aspects, this film triumphs the original in other areas. This movie doesn't have quite as much charm as the original, but is much more emotional. There's a scene that's pretty sad and intense for a family movie. This movie is also larger in scale than the original. The plot was a tad rushed but that's just a small flaw.
Another Epic. Very few movies delve so much deeper into character development and effectively tug at your heart strings. How to train your Dragon II does it flawlessly. With notable little nods to it's predecessor, keeping true to its characters, flawless CG animation, fantastic action and a deep, touching story; It's hard not to hit that replay button.
How to Train Your Dragon 2 APPLAUSE! Very well done and quite moving too. My son now has HTTYD wall stickers in his bedroom. The action figures, How To Train Your Dragon pillow slips, the blankets, sheets, under wear featuring Hiccup and Toothless, a HTTYD lunchbox, and we get the Kraft macaroni and cheese featuring Toothless or Stormfly. We also own the televised versions as well as the special Holiday episode. We know all the dragon classes to. He's waiting for HTTYD 3 now. DreamWorks did an excellent job with this franchise.

Terrible. Loved the first one so much and was stoked when I heard DreamWorks was going to make a sequel. To my dismay however, I was let down. Since the beginnng, the movie felt boring and didn't show the same spark as it's prequel did. All the elements that made the first one a blast felt like they were missing here. 2 stars.

Best Movie ever I've watched httyd one 31 times. I know it word for word. I've read the books and I even got special edition of book one! I found httyd 2 on the internet for free in HD. I got it a month ago and have watched it 22 times so far. I also know it word for word. I have a blog I'm working on for httyd. Also for Halloween my grandma spent 4 hours shopping and 5 hours making a Hiccup and Astrid costume for me and my bff. My bff isn't actually obsessed like I am but she thought it would be fun to dress up together. I'm a girl version of Hiccup and she Astrid. The costumes r amazing! If I see something httyd related I have to get it! No matter the price. Also I watched season one and two of dragons twice in a day on u tube. Not to mention I watched it on TV too. I know the new talk and release dates of everything httyd. I got a awesome picture drawn that I'll post on Instagram and my blog my Instagram is buttercup7627 if you wanna see it. I'm also only 11 so yeah :p. Can't wait for season three and the 3rd movie! OMG almost forgot. I've watched every single spoof or httyd on crack ( what ever you wanna call it ) and every behind the scences of httyd on you tube. I live and breath this movie

Better than the first! I love this movie. I was in love with the first one so much that sometimes at night I would look out my window to see if Toothless would be flying in the night sky. I was a bit scared that it wouldn't be as good as the first but dreamworks really proved me wrong. It was way better than the first. Buy this movie!
Wow i dont know who would not like this movie Ok im only eleven and there are alot of movies i like but this was the best movie ever when i saw it in the store for ten dollars i just had to buy it posters are only five dollars and its my fav movie so i got a poster its a great movie its sad ,exiting , loving and heartwarming toothless is so cute the carators look so much diffrent in the 2nd one than they do in the 1st one and i like that its just an amazing movie if u javent seen it u should .

Its the most amazing movie I have been a httyd freak for years and I've been waiting for 5years for this movie to come out and I can't wait for the 3rd but one problem is I don't think toothless wouldve killed stoick even if he was under control of the alpha he's too good to do that but other then that its an amazing movie yippee!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fantastic sequel and a good ending There will be a third part. The director announced it a d it will have the same ending as the books did..BIGGEST SPOILER ALERT FOR THE ENTIRE SERIES DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU'RE WILLING. At the end either the dragons dissapear or the dragons all die off. In the books ending the dragons had died off.

Best Animated Film Ever Watching Part One made the film my favorite animated movie of all time. But making hiccup an adult and finding his mother made Part Two even better! The storyline tugs at your heart...and pulls you right in. Graphics were wayy more upgraded! There were some slow moments but it was worth it to see the lovable characters of Berk once again. Part Three maybe?! Love...Love...Love this film ♡

Disappointing Not sure why people are so into this film. Wasn't that well done and definitely not better than the first. Lots of themes that seem so forced. Apologies in advance for the spoiler here but no one would be so happy right after a major death in the family. Completely unrealistic and almost painfully cheesy.

Incredible! Instantly when I first got into the movie I had the feels because of the atmospheric music which literally made me pause the movie and listen to this song on repeat. The movie was incredible and a must watch if you've watched the first movie! It is abit fast paced for my liking but you get all the details to fill your viewing needs.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Emboldened by the return of Lord Voldemort, the Death Eaters are wreaking havoc in both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Dumbledore is intent upon preparing Harry for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. He needs Harry to help him uncover a vital key to unlocking Voldemort's defenses--critical information known only to Hogwarts' former Potions Professor, Horace Slughorn. Meanwhile, teenage hormones rage across the ramparts as Harry's long friendship with Ginny Weasley is growing into something deeper. But standing in the way is Ginny's boyfriend, Dean Thomas, not to mention her big brother Ron. Ron's got romantic entanglements of his own to worry about, with Lavender Brown lavishing her affections on him, leaving Hermione simmering with jealousy yet determined not to show her feelings. One student, however, remains aloof with far more important matters on his mind. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one.

“Dolphin Tale 2” continues the story of the brave dolphin Winter, whose miraculous rescue and recovery—thanks to a groundbreaking prosthetic tail—made her a symbol of hope and perseverance to people around the world and inspired the 2011 hit movie “Dolphin Tale.” It has been several years since young Sawyer Nelson and the dedicated team at the Clearwater Marine Hospital, headed by Dr. Clay Haskett, rescued Winter. Yet their fight is not over. Winter’s surrogate mother, the very elderly dolphin Panama, has passed away, leaving Winter without the only poolmate she has ever known. However, the loss of Panama may have even greater repercussions for Winter, who, according to USDA regulations, cannot be housed alone, as dolphins’ social behavior requires them to be paired with other dolphins. Time is running out to find a companion for her before the team at Clearwater loses their beloved Winter to another aquarium.
