Film Review - How to Train your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019)

How to Train your Dragon: The Hidden World is the third and final entry in the HTTYD trilogy and the story here sees Hiccup (Jay Baruchel) looking for a mysterious hidden world said to be existing at the very edge of the human world but in the meantime his kingdom of Burk is under attack from Dragon Hunters and on top of that his loyal Dragon toothless may have another Nightfury in existence.

How to train your Dragon 3 is a lot of fun for those of us like myself that have been fans of this series since it began with the first film in 2010 (March 2010 to be precise) and firstly the story builds off of the storytelling tracks the first 2 films laid down very well and when you begin to picture all 3 films as one big piece as I did in my head as I was watching it you can see it all come together as almost one big film with 3 parts where each part makes sense and each story makes sense.

And I will say it is awful nice to see a story with a proper ending as it increasingly feels like that that has been forgotten nowadays.

And also this is a very nice looking movie visually, all 3 films have had great visuals to them and this one is no exception be it the beauty of the hidden world, the dark colours of the villains or the soaring skies where the Dragons fly supreme that has never gotten old since the first film came out.

And so that was my short and sweet review of How to Train your Dragon 3 a good finale that wrapped up the series well with good visuals and a good story, 3 out of 5.
