Critics Consensus

The rare trilogy capper that really works, How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World brings its saga to a visually dazzling and emotionally affecting conclusion.

The Atlantic

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

Wall Street Journal

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."

Dreamworks may be best known for its Shrek series, but it’s How to Train Your Dragon that aligns them next to Pixar and Disney as creating some of the best animation to date.

Deep Focus Review

The Hidden World is easily the best-looking entry on visual terms, and the familiar plot and themes aren't so repetitive that the basic appeal of its boy-and-a-dog setup has lost its charm.

Rated: 3/4

Solid ending to one of the best animated trilogies of all time. Best trilogies of all time even. And even then it leaves a sliver of room for more should this world ever take flight again in this form. Couldn't be better if they tried.

I haven't been to a theater in 20 years and my kids first time. Best experience I ever had. The seats were amazing and so was the popcorn! Can't wait until next week.

CARLOS MORENO I loved How to Train Your Dragon 3 because it was an exciting and very touching story. The bond between Hiccup and Toothless is stronger than ever, and seeing them grow and make tough decisions was truly inspiring. The animation is beautiful, and the ending made me cry—but in a good way. It’s a great farewell to an unforgettable trilogy
