Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

That athletic phenom of a retriever is back for his fourth movie, trying his paw at baseball this time. Disney hasn't strayed far from the franchise formula, siccing upon the poor retriever yet another set of doggie thieves--this time mad scientists who want to capture Buddy and his pups to isolate the "Super Sports Gene." The original Josh (heartthrob Kevin Zegers) is also back, only to be dispatched to college soon after the opening credits. So it's younger sister Andrea (Caitlin Wachs) who needs Buddy's help this time, as she muffs her baseball debut and suffers the benign neglect of her parents (Cynthia Stevenson and Richard Karn). As with its predecessors, this is harmless, if inane, fun. Kids and dogs are heroes; adults are mostly benevolent screw-ups. Raccoons and scientists may take issue with their portrayals, but, then again, how many scientists operate their labs out of trailer parks? Ages 4 and older. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Product Description

Air Bud knocks one out of the park when he takes up baseball in this all-new fun and heartwarming Disney adventure! This time, Buddy joins in and shows that he's a natural baseball player with major league talent! In the midst of the season, however, a terrible discovery is made: Buddy's now-grown puppies have mysteriously begun to disappear from their new homes! Now it's up to Buddy to stop the dog-nappings and find his pups before it's too late!

4.0 out of 5 stars Best of the Sequels February 5, 2004
Format:DVD
It can be hard to generate sequels to a movie that was based on a true story. The original movie starred Air Bud, a real golden retriever with 20,000 career baskets. Unfortunately the read Buddy lost a leg shortly after the film was made.

In this sequel, the storyline returns to some real issues and not just silliness. Josh's oldest sister (his only full sibling) must deal with Josh going away to college. Josh promises to return, but it is hard for her, especially when his old room begins being remade for the new baby. Andrea's old life from her parents seems to be being swept away by the new life with step-father and half sibling.

But Andrea has other problems. She has just entered junior high with her best friend and they try to fit in by joining an activity. Unfortunately they are hopeless at most everything until they try baseball. Andrea's friend Tammy has real talent but Andrea just doesn't know what to do. Tammy only agrees to be on the team if Andrea is on it as well. This means that Andrea does a lot of bench warming.

But when Tammy is injured Andrea if forced into play and helps the team lose game after game. She then finds out that the coach didn't want her on the team originally.

Buddy to the rescue! Buddy helps Andrea by getting her to practice. Andrea funnels her anger into intensive practice and refuses to give up. Eventually she begins to catch and hit. More and more practice and she becomes a decent player.

Of course this wouldn't be an Air Bud movie if Buddy didn't suit up and play. Seeing Buddy holding a bat is one of the most unbelievable things in the movie. Sorry, just couldn't handle that one (although I can believe his catching ability).

The other major downer in the movie is the way Andrea's parents behave. I can accept them being less attentive due to the new baby buy they seem so unconcerned when Andrea goes missing (although not as bas as when Josh goes missing in the previous movie).

Tension is added to the film by a Horace and Jasper type team who are out to abduct Buddy and his kids (there are only four instead of six like in the previous movie) in an attempt to discover the sports gene and its secrets. Their bumbling efforts are offset by an even more bumbling sheriff in the silliest cowboy hat seen in a long time.

I have to say that I rank the original Air Bud as the best of the films, followed by Seventh Inning Stretch and then World Pup. I don't think the rest are worth ranking.

3.0 out of 5 stars G-rated Language? March 30, 2004
By A Customer
Format:DVD
For the most part, this is the same formula as the others and is fine for your children to watch on their own. But at one point the character of Andrea, dismayed by her non-athleticism remarks (...). Many say I'm old fashioned for considering this a swear word, but I have no desire to hear my 3 or 5 year old repeat that phrase.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Shabby. February 22, 2006
By Vinny
Format:DVD
This movie is okay but I'm not too interested in it. The first and second Air bud movies were the best to me. This movie couldn't make me laugh so I sticked to the first two Air bud movies.
