9/10
What an emotional but great way to end this trilogy. Brilliant story and animation at it's best.

If there is anyway to bring an animated trilogy to an end, this is the way to do it.

Out of the trilogy this is the most visually stunning and also the most emotional of the three and if you've seen the trailer to the movie, you will understand why. In fact when you do see the movie, the title "The Hidden World" will give you a subtle clue as to what happens to the dragons at the end of the movie. (Don't worry, it's nothing bad)

This time the story centers on Hiccup who is now the chief of his village, one year after the events of the previous movie and the defeat of Drago. Hiccup has succeeded in his quest to have a viking/dragon utopia. But his greatest test is yet to come.

There is a new, more deadly and a smarter enemy called Grimmel. Erit who was a reformed dragon trapper in the previous movie is fully aware of not underestimating Grimmel and tries to advise Hiccup of not doing so, in fact he proves to be a worthy ally for Hiccup. Unfortunately for Hiccup, he does meet his match in some scenes.

Toothless on the other hand discovers a female version of his species and is called by Astrid a Light Fury. So Toothless ends up having a girlfriend. (Yes dragons can fall in love too)

Later on Hiccup and Astrid manage to find a hidden world full of Dragons (which in flashbacks to Hiccups childhood, is described by his father Stoick). They realize they don't belong there and you will find at the end of the movie, that it causes Hiccup to make a heartbreaking choice. Which is why it has an emotional ending.

Later on in the movie, Grimmel succeeds in capturing Toothless, the Light Fury and other dragons which causes Hiccup and his tribe to go on a rescue mission and epic battle to defeat Grimmel once and for all.

After the battle, Hiccup realizes that with people like Grimmel and Drago in the human world, the dragons will never be safe, so he encourages Toothless to take them to a world where they will be safe.

Years later Hiccup and Astrid get married, they and their children reunite with Toothless, the Light Fury and their children. (I'll let you work out where they reunite) I believe that with the way it ended, it could leave it open for a new generation to experience the "Magic" of this series for years to come.

The How To Train Your Dragon trilogy, Spin off movies and TV series are BRILLIANT both for children and adults alike and I think you will defiantly enjoy this one. But beware, because this is the last in the series, it's a lot more emotional.

HAPPY VIEWING FOLKS.
