Product Description
The thrilling second chapter of the epic HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON trilogy brings us back to the fantastical world of Hiccup and Toothless five years after the two have successfully united dragons and vikings on the island of Berk. While Astrid, Snoutlout and the rest of the gang are challenging each other to dragon races (the island's new favorite contact sport), the now inseparable pair journey through the skies, charting unmapped territories and exploring new worlds. When one of their adventures leads to the discovery of a secret ice cave that is home to hundreds of new wild dragons and the mysterious Dragon Rider, the two friends find themselves at the center of a battle to protect the peace. Now, Hiccup and Toothless must unite to stand up for what they believe while recognizing that only together do they have the power to change the future of both men and dragons.

My 11 year old and I love the Dragon series - first movie, the first two seasons of the TV show, and the second film. We love the growth of the characters, and thought they did an unbelievable job with the second film, since it's so difficult to follow up something as good as the first movie with something that can measure up. They nailed it.
So I was looking forward to the Blu-ray release. And it's everything I had hoped. The movie itself looks gorgeous, sounds great, and I've had no complaints at all with the quality. But what really makes this a 5 star item is the extras. Yes, the 26 minute short about the beginnings of Dragon Racing is cool and fun (although not the same quality of animation as the movie, it's more on par with what DreamWorks did with the TV show, but a little better) and was a big hit for my son, but I really liked the deleted scenes. They gave a bit more insight into some of the storyline, and I always love hearing things about how the story developed, how they changed something, and no longer needed a scene. Some of them are rough animations since they weren't cancelled until they were that far along with the scene rendering, others are storyboards.
There are some kid-friendly (i.e. cute but not very deep) bits about Drago's weapons he uses to catch dragons, and other similar things, but for me, what made this so great was the almost hour long "The Making Of" video they had. My son of course was bored with much of it, since he just wanted to see the "cool" things and not hear the background, but he'd perk up every time they'd show one of the actors or actresses and he'd yell, "That's Hiccup!" or "That's Astrid!" I like it when he can see the people who do the voices, and put a face to them since he knows the voices so well. Sometimes it's a good fit with the character they play, sometimes it's not, but it's always entertaining. They delved into their research and trips to Norway to view locations for ideas, and even had some great footage about a group of kids they showed the movie to before it was released to get their take on it, what they liked, what they didn't like, and what they thought the message of the movie was. There was some of the technical work shown, some bits of some of the meetings they had, and just a good flow from beginning to end of the creation of the movie that was very well done. They showed some of the actor's reactions as they were learning things about their character and how they've changed for the new movie, and it was really cool to see these actor's enthusiasm and love of their characters and the growth from the first movie to the second.
The movie looked great, sounded great, and the extras were above and beyond, so this is definitely a great deal for any fan of the HTTYD series.
"How to Train Your Dragon 2" has the human touch, not unlike the one given to the first. A major plot development, which could have very well been executed for the sake of taking up sequel space, is instead executed with grace and compassion. Indeed, it is a testament to the filmmakers that these animated characters are treated like actual human beings. A scene occurring rather early in the film features a sense of authenticity hard to come by in animation these days. Hiccup and Astrid are given the time to pleasantly interact and joke with each other. Another scene showcases a heartfelt reunion between two characters who have spent years apart from each other. Alas, when Hiccup reunites with his long gone mother, it is the set up for scenes that are at once visually enticing and emotionally satisfying.
Speaking of the visuals, the improved technology used for the film is on full display. The sight of dragons flying through the air is absolutely stunning. When dramatic encounters between characters occur in the foreground, it is hard to look away from the background. I doubt you needed to see this in 3D to get the idea.
All of these factors help to overshadow the obviously more formulaic bits of the film. To be fair, Drago, the film's villain, is nothing more than the stereotypical "out to take over the world" type. Nevertheless, his motives are well placed in the story, where he effectively serves as the yin to Hiccup's yang (hate to borrow a cliche, but there you go).
And lest we forget the brilliance showcased in the performers. Jay Baruchel is still rightfully in place as the voice of Hiccup, and his supporting actors still do excellent work. Plus, what else is there to say about Gerard Butler's work as Stoick that hasn't already been said? And Cate Blanchett's addition to the cast is brilliant to say the least. The work from Djimon Hounsou as Drago is also brilliant, and it is fun seeing (or rather, hearing) Kit Harrington, whose "appearance" gives way to a very sly and witty reference to his "Game of Thrones" character Jon Snow.
The confidence demonstrated here is simply hard to ignore. As far as sequels are concerned, "HTTYD 2" has the ability to be considered on its own terms as well. This is a wondrous achievement, and exceptional all around.
On one off night, I took a chance on the first film from a local DVD rental near my home. Then, I watched this sequel on Netflix. Then, I watched both again the next morning. And then, finally, I bought both from Amazon when I had to return the rental later that night. (It was a very impatient two days of waiting for these films to arrive!) HTTYD and HTTYD 2 are some of the best children's movies to see the silver screen in recent years, and the mesmerizing relationship that builds between Hiccup and Toothless brings back feelings of childhood amazement and wonder that you might have forgotten existed. This film is well-scored, well-written, with a great ensemble cast of voice talent and breath-taking animated scenes of flight and action that form a truly incredibly story. I love both films for different reasons, and although the first film has more of a subtle magic to it, this sequel builds on an already-exciting world with great new ideas and even more action and adventure. I love them both equally, and I can't wait for the third one to come to theaters!
If you haven't seen this film before, I MUST recommend that you watch it, and if you have seen it before, then what exactly are you waiting for? Go ahead and add it to your collection! Either way, you will be bringing home a special movie that someone of any age could enjoy.

パッケージ写真も英語表記なので北米版ぽかったのですが、フランス版またはドイツ版を密かに期待して撃沈です。
昔から皆さんが指摘している通り、アマゾンのレビューはタイトルが同じなら全部一緒にしてしまうのでやはりここでの輸入版購入は危険ですね。
やはり輸入版ブルーレイはヤフオク狙いに留めておきます。
因みに、同梱のDVDはリージョン違いで読めませんでした。
なお星は、画質、音質共に良いし、音声や字幕に関してアマゾンが嘘の記載をしている訳ではないので三つです。
星二つ減点はやはりレビューの載せ方ですね。
