    Air Bud

    I really enjoyed this movie. I have seen most of the other air buds and am wondering what sports they will come up with next. Tennis, Gymnastics? well i am a soccer player and really did like it, especially as a kid. In the movie it also makes a point that no matter what you are you can do anything. Out of all of the Air Buds, this is by far my favorite. I suggest it for family's. Also another good Air Bud movie I liked was Air Buddies. Some people may not like that one because the dogs talk but that was my other favorite. It is more for kids than adults but some may still enjoy it. i don't know what to write so i am just typing stuff sorry. I hope you enjoy this movie and find this helpful.

    One of the best things about this movie is that it's dogs over cats!! haha

    Dogs rule! The air bud movies totally show that, and i love the fact that they used soccer! I would have liked to see Mia Hamm, but the other superstars are great too. A few of the actors are cheesy, but the animal training is great! But lets just hope that next time they include a yellow lab... haha! lol Also, "Tammy" (the sister's friend) is a dork and they should have used someone else. Josh is kind of cute, (lol) but he keeps acting stranger and stranger. It's like he's out grown them. This is one of the best air bud movies, but it has a few flaws. However, i recommend it

    Mostly dumb

    This was the first "Air Bud" movie to be released direct to video I believe, not that the series was ever that great to begin with. Here we have Buddy learning to play soccer and that's mostly it. I was thinking that at least this movie didn't have the dog farts of "Space Buddies". Instead, it just has a man farting. This is seriously one of the most out of place scenes in a movie I've witnessed in a long time. There's this part where a rich guy is just farting for no reason. We need to stop with the farts in these movies.

    The main kid character dates this one girl and we get the same lessons about being yourself and everything. There's a dog catcher or someone who tries to kidnap the puppies but is so bland I don't care. The team with Buddy manages to rise to the ranks way too quickly and it would have been interesting to see more of that. This is just a boring direct to video Disney movie and it's probably even worse than the notorious animated Disney direct to video sequels. At least they had something good to begin with. *1/2

    Weak...

    After showing off his basketball and football skills, Bud the dog is recruited to join his city's local football team. Meanwhile, he meets Molly, a golden retriever from England, with whom he ends up having five puppies, targets for new "dangerous" bandits. First film in the "Bud" series released directly to video.

    The movie is no longer such wonders for children, as Bud 2 was not, and they still put an initiative rating to 10+, aff, if the little ones can't watch it, who will? Now Bud has a little crush, and Josh too, without any charm, it was no wonder that it was released directly to the video, and there are still some franchise films ahead of him... Never give up, discouraged, yes...

    Not as good as the first Air Bud

    This movie is good, but disappointingly is nowhere near as good as the first airbud. The storyline is predictable and cheesey and you don't even see much of Josh Framm's legs! The hot teenage Kevin Zegers is the best thing in this movie.

    • Trivia
      First of the "Air Bud" franchise to have a straight-to-video release.
    • Crazy credits
      After "The End" is displayed you can hear some barking from Buddy. Additional scenes with the World cup players then start at the beginning of the credits. These scenes are a continuation of the film and are basically the followup from Scurry's line about how they should play some time.
