How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World

Movie · 2019

A heartfelt and visually stunning finale to the trilogy, full of dragon battles, a menacing villain, and a bittersweet goodbye that may genuinely move the whole family. The action is bloodless but frequent, and the villain Grimmel is the most threatening of the series.

Comfortably suits most kids 6 and up who've enjoyed the earlier films; sensitive 5-year-olds may find the villain and battle scenes a bit much.

If you’d rather skip

Peril & tension0:05:00Moderate

The opening dragon-rescue raid is fast and chaotic, with ships, fire, caged dragons, and a large hostile fleet; sets an action-heavy tone right away.

Loss & grief0:30:00Mild

Flashback scene of young Hiccup finding his father crying by a fire and asking if he'll get a new mother; quietly sad rather than dramatic.

Scary imagery1:20:00Moderate

Climactic battle sequence featuring Grimmel at his most threatening, drugged aggressive dragons, and Toothless falling unconscious from the sky.

One more moment is in the full report. See all of them, checked against your own family’s settings, in Little Longer.
