Now chief and ruler of Berk alongside Astrid, Hiccup has created a gloriously chaotic dragon utopia. When the sudden appearance of female Light Fury coincides with the darkest threat their village has ever faced, Hiccup and Toothless must leave the only home they've known and journey to a hidden world thought only to exist in myth. As their true destines are revealed, dragon and rider will fight together-to the very ends of the Earth-to protect everything they've grown to treasure.

Critic Reviews for How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World

All Critics (241) | Top Critics (34)

  • So much of The Hidden World is stuffed with filler material. But in certain wordless moments, this grand final entry really sings.

  • The film feels like it's flying on empty... This is clearly the end of the franchise, one that gave great pleasure and stayed on too long.

  • The movie could easily be called "How To End Your Trilogy."

  • For some, it'll be a moving conclusion to an epic series. For others, it'll be one less kids' franchise to worry about.

  • "How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World" still has the power to warm a cold heart, but the fire is less bright.

    Pat Padua

    Washington Post
    Top Critic

  • DeBlois struggles mightily to connect the resolution of one storyline to the resolution of the other, and it proves to be an overwhelming task. Still, it's a painless watch, with plenty of visual oohs and emotional aahs, and will surely leave fans happy.

    I feel veeeeery much that we've done this dance before now. I definitely didn't hate The Hidden World, the animation's pretty speccy, Toothless is eternally adorable, some of the creature design is pretty cool (especially the new bad guy's beasties) and I appreciate ending a franchise on your own terms. But to me, this is still definitely the low point of the trilogy. Not crap, for sure, but hit on a lot of things I genuinely don't care for.

    I'll be honest, I haven't seen this movie. I just wanted to check that, since the site seems to have a more updated look, if I was able to post the long reviews that I typically do, which I haven't been able to for three months now. I reviewed a film that isn't available on here and posted it here. So it turns out I can. But what I CAN'T do is clear the score from this movie. Hence, until the moment that I DO see it or I find a way to clear this score (which I did easily before), the score is gonna stay up. Disregard the score, because I have NOT SEEN THE MOVIE. This was just a test gone horribly wrong. Plus, I fully expect this to be a fucking great movie, since the first two didn't disappoint.

    The third installment of the dragon riders series is another step forward in animation, creating amazing images, especially of landscapes and flocks of flying creatures. As for the story, it doesn't exactly reinvent the wheel. The first two films felt fresher, more surprising. It's still nice to revisit these characters and follow them around a little more. The super sweet ending is probably the strongest part of the film.

    There's a dragon killer on the loose, professional, relentless, indefatigable, out to kill all the dragons he can. Can the team stop him before he succeeds? With loads of shots of dragons gracefully gliding through white and puffy clouds,, this screen goodbye to the series, and to the fans who love it, is rife with nods to friendship together with self-determinism. The experience is not Toy Story 3, but still is enjoyable.
