I don't think it's a stretch to say that Michael Mann is best known for his film Heat. That movie is a certified classic and worthy of its own post at a later date after I give it another re-watch. But recently, I watched a different, slightly earlier Michael Mann movie once again, and while …

Short Summary – How to Train Your Dragon 3
Short Summary is an original series in which I write brief reviews of movies, TV shows, video games, books, and more. Spoilers, for sure, as I’m going to be talking about all three HTTYD movies here.
