How to Train Your Dragon 3 is the final installment in the How to Train Your Dragon movie franchise. This animation follows the tale of Hiccup and his Night Fury, Toothless, as they try to save all the dragons they can find and help them live peacefully.

This DreamWorks animation is loosely based on a book series of the same name, and it blows my mind how well the story and animation come together to create another memorable journey. Every movie in this franchise has been great, delivering a tale worth seeing for both kids and adults alike.


Here, we see Hiccup still living on the adventurous side of life, with his mother by his side now, trying to lead his team without relying too much on the dragons. With Toothless (the Night Fury) now an alpha, it’s easier to control the dragons, but Hiccup and his crew are finding it hard to master missions on their own.

The animation focuses mostly on Hiccup this time, as the new chief following his father’s death in How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014). He’s trying to figure out the best way to handle the current situation. The situation? His raids have been successful, and he’s saved many dragons. The downside? Berk, where he and the other Vikings live, is now overflowing with dragons, and chaos is brewing.

Hiccup needs to find them a new home—a place where they’ll be safe from humans and have enough space to roam free.

On the other side, there are the people losing their dragons to Hiccup. They’ve called in a man named Grimmel for help. Grimmel has made it his life’s mission to kill every Night Fury in existence, and upon learning that Hiccup has one, he jumps at the chance to help these sailors by capturing and killing Toothless. He uses a White Fury (a female Night Fury) that these men have captured, hoping it will lure Toothless away and leave Hiccup vulnerable.


The plan isn’t a complete success, but Grimmel makes it difficult for Toothless to remain loyal to Hiccup. Toothless now has a love interest he cares for and wants to keep by his side.

The animation is cool, and every movie in this trilogy delivers on the highs. How to Train Your Dragon consistently hits it out of the park, with each film being both critically and financially successful. You won’t regret watching the final movie in this series.
