Air Bud 4 - Mit Baseball bellt sich's besser

These movies are great for little kids, but I think that they should've stopped after the first one because the ORIGINAL Air Bud passed away of cancer in the leg after the first movie came out. I am surprised that they actually had a sequel, let alone a 3rd one. I like the dog, but c'mon. They're showing things that are impossible. Kids watch these movies. What does this teach them? I know somebody who was like 7 when the movie came out. He threw a basketball on the top of his dog's head and it hurt his dog. In honor of the REAL Air Bud, they should've stopped after making the first one.

First off, it's about a dog that plays baseball. If this were set in the future, with maybe some ogres and robot men having a war against a giant Abraham Lincoln wearing a diaper, it would have been entertaining. In its current state, I hardly see how this could entertain its target audience, anybody younger than 6 years old. I watched it with my girlfriend's dad when we were both hungover and our headaches got worse!! This was atrocious, and the actors should be ashamed for having stooped so low as to dignify this movie's creation and release. THE DOG HITS A HOMERUN WITH A BASEBALL BAT IT HOLDS IN ITS MOUTH. ENOUGH SAID.

My one line summary is actually a quote from a 'Family Affair' web site, but it does reflect what made the biggest impression on me. Though Caitlin didn't show the talent she demonstrated, along with Tim Curry, in her TV series, she made Angela adorable and someone to care about. This, to me, was really a movie about a girl's adjustment to junior high, not a movie about a baseball-playing dog. The plot about the dog and his offspring--who a professor wanted to kidnap in order to create a 'superdog'--seemed secondary. Though the kidnap plot did add some excitement.

It was a funny and touching movie and good clean family fun. Well, not quite clean. Baseball players do get their uniforms dirty. Then there was that incident in Home Ec class. And let's not forget the hogs!

Why the heck do people care so much if Buddy was only taught basketball? I mean seriously it doesn't matter! Maybe that's why you people think that the fourth movie was bad. I just watched it again and I still love it. Besides if you pay attention, the scientist guy says he wants to steal the super sports gene of Buddy's and his puppy's' and maybe that's how he learned the other sports. Use your imagination, jeez. After I saw the second and third and fourth movies for the first time, I had completely forgotten that the dude only taught Buddy basketball. Just enjoy the movie, don't pay attention to stuff like that because if you do it ruins the movie and you don't like it. If you just watch the movie but don't think about the others, it's enjoyable. In fact, my family enjoyed the first movie so much that we had gotten our first golden retriever, and a golden retriever puppy. Now, that retriever puppy is 4 years old and we have another puppy who just so happens to be a lab. All of this happened because of the Air Bud movies so that just goes to show how good this movie really is. Another reason as to why people didn't like the movie is probably because that's not their favorite genre of movies. People should stick to their favorite genre and comment on those movies not movies that they hate!!!

With Josh off to college, Bud, the sporty dog, will be in Andrea's care and rock like the star of a baseball team. But such success can arouse the envy of many, and, in the middle of the championship, their puppies are kidnapped. Josh is off to his first year of college and Buddy has stayed behind with Josh's little sister Andrea and the rest of the family. Andrea, attempting to fit in with her Jr. High classmates, she decides to join the baseball team and along the way discovers that Buddy is a talented baseball player.

Now focused on Andrea, not very good at sports, arts and the like, and missing her brother who leaves for college, but didn't save much, I'm glad the franchise is ending, hehehe, looking forward to the end, cute, but more the same in all of them, predictable cuteness, with cute little dramas, just...
