Rating: Summary: A Nice Kid's Movie Review: If you know the story of Air Bud, the sports-hero dog, and you like the story and your kids don't get bored with it, plus also if they're getting on your nerves and you need to quiet them down, then give this movie a try. Instead of playing basketball and football, Air Bud trys his luck with soccer and even tackles a new challenge, parenthood. The mom and her boyfriend Patrick say their vows in the beginning of the movie, with help from Air Bud, of course. I was a little surprised that Cynthia Stevenson didn't play the mom in this movie, if you noticed she's in every single one of the Air Buds except this one. Anyway, the story, the older brother, Josh (Kevin Zegers) decides to play soccer at his high school and he falls for his hot British teammate, Emma. He quickly befriends her a little too closely, and, of course, with the bad guys plotting against them to steal their dogs, they team up with Air Bud and manage, amidst all the excitement,to win their soccer tournament. With some good laughs and cute characters, you can't hate this movie. What also makes this movie cool is the ending, which feature appearances of real U.S. women champion soccer players like Brandi Chastain, Brianna Scurry, and Tisha Venturini. A cool movie to keep the kids occupied and not a bad one to watch yourself!
Rating: Summary: Air Bud: Orwellian Brilliance Review: Air Bud 3 is Orwellian brilliance: in the style of the George Orwell classic Animal Farm, human actors are put into an animal form to create an allegory that within this film is nothing if not overtly transparent.
Air Bud 3, starring a talented dog actor, is a nuanced look at Euro-American relations, especially important in the politics of the Bush administration. The blonde-haired (and thus a caucasion surrogate) golden lab dominated basketball in the first two installments. This is highly symbolic: like white america has appropriated black art forms, we find a blonde-haired animal infiltrating and deflecting attention towards itself (think of Eminem and the adoption in suburban white America of black fashion). If those were not wildly subversive films, nothing is.
Here, Bud dominates soccer, Europe's game. The symbolism is obvious: the United States has taken possession of Europe and European policy. Orwell would be delighted! Playfully employing language nuances to instruct and astonish the viewer, this is an intensely imagined narrative and call to arms standing among Air Bud's best works.
Rating: Summary: the best!!!!! Review: AIR BUD is just the best movie i've ever seen! The dog is the best... especially Brittany Paige she's so beautiful! Keep up the good work!!

Rating: Summary: good and inspirational Review: i normally don't like these movies but I found the dog that plays basketball ver charming the dog is just amazing and the plot isn't as cheasy as most of these films are
Rating: Summary: wonderful buddy. Review: I saw the first movie of air bud and thought that it was pretty good the way a dog could play a sport and was really good at it, especially basketball. Then the second one came out with Buddy playing football, which i thought was also neat. But now we have Buddy playing soccer. Personally, i like a little romance in some movies and this had a little bit. Josh and buddy, falls in love with Emma and her golden retriever. The music wasn't so bad on the movie either, but i can't seem to find any soundtrack to air bud at all. I hope they come out with one though.
Rating: Summary: Much Better than the Others Review: I thought this was the best Air Bud movie ever! The cast was great and so was the plot. If you've seen the other Air Bud movies, I gurentee you this one is the best! I truly recomend this movie to people of all ages!

Rating: Summary: Simple but entertaining Review: Josh develops a crush on the new girl in town, who happens to be an expert soccer player. She attends his high school, and is part of the first soccer team at that high school. The soccer team ends up being two players short. So, of course, Josh joins up. That makes them one player short. Guess who signs up next?As far as wholesome, simplistic, light as cotton candy family entertainment goes, this is top notch. My only real complaint is that dog catchers were involved in the film, and hasn't someone in Hollywood realized yet that the evil dog catcher is a thing of the past? It's completely unnecessary in today's scripts. Anyway, Buddy himself falls in love, with none other than the dog that belongs to Josh's new love interest. They have puppies, and for some inexplicable reason the dog catchers want to steal the puppies. Well, that's OK, because the puppies are adorable (even if they're of different sizes throughout the film - larger when they should be smaller, smaller when they should be larger). We see them as puppies just out of the womb, and is there much in life cuter than a newborn puppy?
