WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

The Viking village of Berk has finally learned to co-exist with the dragon population, thanks to the efforts of its young leader Hiccup (Baruchel) and his pet dragon Toothless. However, when a female member of Toothless’ species – once thought to be extinct – suddenly shows up, it prompts both Hiccup and Toothless on a quest to find a fabled world of dragons, while also fending off the advances of nefarious poacher Grimmel (Abraham)…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

DreamWorks Animation’s adored film series based on the How To Train Your Dragon books comes to a meaningful and emotional conclusion, as Hiccup and Toothless are tested like never before in an animated epic that pulls out all the stops for its grand finale.
