I didn't watch it

Um...how do I say, "How to Train Your Dragon" does not need to introduce good-looking or not-good-looking, if you like the first part, then even if the second part is bad, I have to see where the difference
is. In fact, I didn’t like the first part very much. There is only one impression left: it breaks the convention of Hollywood 3D animation that has a happy ending. I won’t say that a character hangs up, and I stand up again with a few words and a few tears.
But "How to Train Your Dragon 2" still falls into the cliché. I don't know if the sequel likes it. Take "Despicable Me" as an example, the first work is obviously quite distinctive, and when it comes to the sequel, it becomes a tangled puberty again. , Family, growing up, and other issues are not much different from other similar movies of the same genre.
The same is true for this work. After 90 minutes of watching it, it feels very empty, as if not. The only impression left is the more and more annoying protagonist, his mother’s vivid body language and the muscular villain, even in the film. The climax battle, after watching it, it is also plain (it is a pity that there is a rare villain who does things cleanly and has a very good aura)


Overall rating: 3.5/5.0 (can be regarded as a popcorn movie)
Entertainment Index: 3.3/5.0 ( Yes A little humor, not such an exciting battle, and there is some joy in the process)
Aftertaste Index: 1.1/5.0 (I don’t have any impression after reading it)
Box office performance: The cost of this work is 145 million, which is cheaper than a generation. 20000000. It feels... Animation is really more expensive than commercial movies... And besides the good shots of Flying Dragon World, I don't think the scenery is good. Because of the good reputation of the generation, and the box office of 3D cartoons is basically not much difference, so the box office in the first week is 49.45 million. Nevertheless, the main force is overseas, which earned 441.9 million, and the final global box office was 618.9 million.


Although the second generation maintains its characteristics-it does not deliberately make a happy ending, but the sacrifice of his father is a bit deliberate. Speaking of this, where did he have the confidence to persuade the villain, and what he said, "By persuading Dad, he can persuade others. This is what he is good at." . . He couldn't even persuade his dad to let him try it. The subsequent development also showed that his set was too weak compared to the villain. He didn't even talk about the point. The debate battle can be described as a terrible loss to the
little villain. It looks a lot like the little villain in "How to Train Your Dragon", and his personality is a bit like. Is there really something inside?
I don't know how "How to Train Your Dragon 2" got the Oscar nomination for Best Animation...

How to Train Your Dragon 2 quotes

  • Hiccup: [playing with Toothless] He's down! Ah, and it's ugly! Dragons and Vikings, enemies again, locked in combat to the bitter...

    [Toothless pins Hiccup, who moans in mock pain. Toothless then licks him repeatedly]

    Hiccup: Ugh! C'mon!

    [jumps to his feet and wipes the drool off his clothes]

    Hiccup: You KNOW that doesn't wash out!

    [Toothless laughs and Hiccup playfully flicks the excess drool at him]

  • [last lines]

    Hiccup: [narrating] This is Berk. A bit trampled and busted and covered in ice, but it's home. It's our home. Those who attacked us are relentless and crazy, but those who stopped them - oh-h-h-h-h, even more so! We may be small in numbers, but we stand for something bigger than anything the world can pin against us. We are the voice of peace, and, bit by bit, we will change this world. You see, we have something they don't. Oh, sure, they have armies, and they have armadas, but we... we have...

    [Toothless roars]

    Hiccup: ...OUR DRAGONS!
