How to Train Your Dragon 2 3D
Picking up five years after the first movie, Hiccup (voiced by Jay Baruchel) and Toothless set out to explore unmapped territories and discover new worlds. Winner of Best Animated Movie at the 2015 Golden Globes. Also features the voice talents of Cate Blanchett, Jonah Hill, Kristen Wiig, Kit Harrington, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Gerard Butler.
Hiccup and Toothless come across an ice cave that is home to hundreds of new wild dragons, looked after by a mysterious new dragon rider. However, the emergence of Drago – a feared conqueror looking to build a dragon army – could mean the end of the peaceful harmony between humans and dragons. The bond between Hiccup and Toothless is strong, but the crushing iron fist of Drago may prove too much for the pair.
A third film has been announced, set for release in 2016, also to be directed by Dean DeBlois.

Total Film
More emotional, exhilarating and expansive than the original. DreamWorks finally has a franchise to match its ambition.

Time Out
This is a more rugged affair than, say, "Frozen," and any admirers of that film might find themselves yearning for a few more songs and a little less testosterone.

The New York Times
The story seems to be going somewhere until it comes to a halt with the inevitable showdown between the forces of darkness and the forces of light.

The Dissolve
The rote hero/villain face-offs are exciting, but the film is in no hurry to fast-forward to them.

Hollywood Reporter
Going beyond the pat eco-conscious message that every kids' film has to have, HTTYD2 touches on how complex the emotional bond between a person and an animal can be.
