Brief Review
The final movie in the How to Train Your Dragon trilogy, Hiccup and Toothless travel to the edge of the Earth in order to find the “Hidden World” and save everything that they have built together. This is an emotional and satisfying end to one of my favorite animated series. It really pulls on your heartstrings, especially if you have seen the first two. I was genuinely sad at the end because they make no bones about it being the finale. The movie is very good, however I don’t think this one quite reaches the heights of the first two (the first is one of my all-time favorite animated movies). I would call it the “least great” of the three. Like the other two, this one has a little bit of everything: action, humor, plot and beautiful animation. It is just a solid movie for both kids and adults to watch. This one does feel a little older as it touches more on growing up and making challenging decisions, however at its core it is still a kid’s movie. Overall this is a series that I would recommend to practically anyone. If you’re a fan of the series you will likely be satisfied, although you will also probably feel sadness that it’s over. If you haven’t seen the other two, I would recommend watching them, however you would still probably enjoy this one!
