10 Biggest Flaws Of The 10 Highest-Grossing Movies Of 2014

9. It's Occasionally Much Too Much - How To Train Your Dragon 2

Box Office Gross: $618,909,935 As far as animated sequel movies go, How To Train Your Dragon is something akin to a masterclass. And though you could argue that the first flick was better in terms of narrative flow, there are a good number of critics who would wholeheartedly disagree with that, given that many of them compared this follow-up to the likes of Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, given its darker, more adult-oriented story. Which is to say: there isn't a lot wrong with How To Train Your Dragon 2. If you were absolutely forced - at gunpoint, perhaps - to pick out a flaw inherent to this relentlessly charming flick, you might cite the fact that it occasionally feels a little weighed down by the sheer volume of its muchness: there's a lot packed into the movie (characters, battles, explosions); now and again, you do begin to feel a tad overwhelmed.
