Here’s a riddle even the residents of Berk could solve. What do you get when you take one of the best-animated movies of the 21st century and add Cate Blanchett? A brilliant sequel, that’s what.

How to Train Your Dragon 2has just swooped ontoNetflixand with a 92% Rotten Tomatoes score, it’s pretty essential viewing and a great way to keep the kids quiet this weekend.

Set five years after the original movie, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third (a majestic name if ever there was one) is now a young man. Firmly bonded with his beloved dragon Toothless (who still acts like a puppy), this is very much a coming-of-age tale. Astrid is now his fiancée while Fishlegs… is still Fishlegs.

With the entire original cast returning, if you’ve seen the original movie, you’ll know largely what to expect in this follow-up. The laughs, wonder and bombastic action all return but this story also has a touch more edge to it as Hiccup becomes an adult.

If you or your little ones can’t get enough of the Isle of Berk then luckilyNetflixhas you covered. A collection of shorts known asHow to Train Your Dragon Legendsand six seasons of the Netflix originalDragons: Race to the Edgeare available one the platform. It’s the depth of content like that which makes Netflix one of thebest streaming servicesout there.
