Another great movie

Hey, guys!

So, a few months back, I went with my best friend to see How to Train Your Dragon 2. I've never seen the first movie, but it didn't affect my viewing experience at all and I don't think you have to see the first one to enjoy the sequel.

What you need to know about the first movie, though, is that the Vikings of Berk hunt dragons. Hiccup, motherless son of the chief, believes that peace is possible between humans and dragons when he shoots down a dragon and discovers that the dragon he later names Toothless is a kind, intelligent, and gentle creature.

Bottom-line: he convinces everyone in Berk that there is no reason to fear dragons. By the beginning of the next movie, everybody has their own dragon and the shops that used to sell dragon hunting equipment now sell saddles.

With Toothless for help, Hiccup has been discovering new worlds, which brings him in contact with dragon hunters that are building a dragon army. For what, they don't know, but Hiccup is determined to find out.

Also (I should say spoiler alert, but this was in all the movie trailers), in his quest to stop Drago Bloodfist - the man behind the scheme to build a dragon army - Hiccup finds his long-lost mother, who is a dragon rider like him.

This movie is adorable and it made me want to cry a couple of times. Toothless reminds me of a puppy. This is just an overall feel-good movie. Great for kids, though I know that I am not the only young adult who enjoys a good Disney/Pixar or Dreamworks film. Just know that this movie comes highly recommended.

That's all for today. Until next time.

Happy viewing!!
