Air Bud: Spikes Back

Buddy is back as a volleyball player. This movie is not the greatest movie if you want to see a lot of volleyball, this is a movie you would see for the cute golden retriever. I liked this movie not for the volleyball but for cute Buddy. If you like dogs you will love this movie.

Now, I'm not much when it comes to writing so you're not going to see the outcome or a lot about the movie within my comments about this movie but I just wanted to comment because I feel too many people that are writing about it, are giving the other people the wrong picture about this movie! Of course, this movie is about Air Bud, the "wonder dog" if you want to label him as such...that seems to be able to play any sport that is thrown at him (pardon the pun) and yes, it is geared toward kids but what were the majority of the people that watched this, expecting? I'm a parent and have six kids and we all enjoyed this movie a great deal and yes, we've seen the other ones as well and since then, have seen the newer ones as well and they all have pretty much the same plot but we are talking about a boy and his dog (in general) here. If you're expecting freaky stuff to happen, may I suggest Sixth Sense but these movies are geared for kids and if you checked the rating on them, you'd know that so why all the whining! Maybe some of the characters have been changed but my kids didn't seem to mind...and they did notice...but that wasn't why they enjoyed the movie or why they were watching it. The main reason for watching the movie was for Air Bud and he was in each of them and he never did disappoint! Listen, if you have kids, you've got a great movie that they'll be watching on more than one occasion...and that goes for all of them so I say...BRING ON MORE AIR BUD for the kids, of course...lol Don B...

Well i just saw this last night. I enjoyed it despite it pretty much being the same concept form the previous films. Buddy is missing at the start of the Championship, but arrives to save the day as always. The one thing that was different is buddy got himself out of the trouble this time with out the help of the kids. One thing i will nitpick is Noah Framm why was his last name framm that was Josh and Andrea fathers last name. So Noah should have had a different last name(since they share the same mother but have different Dad), unless his father Patrick took the Framm name.

This is obviously 3 years after the 7th inning stretch taking into fact that in that movie Andrea was just going into middle school 6th grade. In this one , she was ending 8th grade. I guess that would make Josh going to be a senior in College

It's a film that most kids will enjoy, some adults might not simple due to its basically the same thing only different sports, and slightly different situation. This is the first they have ever done something during the `Summer' versus the school year so that was different

OK, this is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I mean, why do these people even bother to do a FIFTH one of this. What's next? Tennis? Roller Blading? These movies are like exactly the same as the MVP series. Everything they can't teach a dog to do, such as play hockey or snowboard, they teach the monkey to do. It's the same freaking story every time, I feel sad for the people who actually pay money to go see these movies in a theater because these movies are completely obvious and I would rather spend my money on some other movie that is actually interesting. Also, I wouldn't recommend seeing and MVP movies unless you find it more amusing to watch a monkey play numerous sports.

ho lee crap. why did this get made? on top of crappy dog-spiking-the-ball effects, air bud 5 also tries to make us think anyone cares about competitive beach volleyball. sure, the activity is fun, and could be the basis of a bad episode of bay watch, but it isn't a movie. the movie also has a substory in which bud unwittingly steals a big diamond. that's great, only for the fact that it eliminates the chances of "air bud: k-9 catburglar" getting made. on the plus side, slower kids might like it because the dog does things that a normal dog wouldn't do. the smarter kids would say 'big deal', as he proved that when he dunked a basketball over five years ago. my opinion is, let the dog eat his alpo, shoot some hoops for old times sake and live out the rest of his life minus the well-digging, third-rate, kid-grabber sequels.
