I feel I do not need to see the preceding four films in this sorry series, as they all seem to be the same story retold with a different sport: Cute dog excels at soccer/basketball/croquet and wins every game going, while irritating pre-teens fall in love and well-meaning grown ups teach life-lessons. Why bother to replicate such an obvious formula four times? Because there are parents stupid enough out there to plunk their money down to watch the same rubbish again and again, and let's face it, the kids love the animals. They could put out a video of the main canine cast jumping around for an hour without a single human featuring in it and the rugrats would still lap it up. If you are over the age of 7 though and have the misfortune of being forced to sit through this, I can offer the following advice: 1: Sellotape your eyeballs down as they would otherwise get pretty sore, what with you rolling them every few minutes. 2: If you have a pet hound or your neighbour does, try and keep away from them at least a full day over the movie is over, or you might do something to it you'll regret.. On a closing note, I see this film had a budget of 5 million dollars, what a scary thought. Think how many starving kids could have been fed with that money, rather than letting it be spent on this disposable nonsense. It's enough to make you put your paws over your eyes and whine..
The Disney company is a corporation, so we have no reason to expect them to keep from doing something that they shouldn't do if money is involved. Air Bud is a perfect example of how much money can be made off of sequels to incredibly stupid movie. I hate to brake it to you people, but the original Air Bud was not a good movie! Wow, what a revelation!!! But the fact that an Air Bud 5 even exists should be enough reason for God or Budha or Captain Crunch to come down upon the human race with fire and brimstone and giant, fire-breathing waterfowl that will kill whoever is responsible for destroying the imaginations and intellect of the children who watch these effortless films because their parents sit them down in front of the TV for ninety minutes so that they can have their "special time" to create more worthless children to cover our forsaken earth until were overrun with hopeless, sagging drones who vote for George Bush and watch reality television! phew... You already know the plot of this movie. Your children already know the plot of this movie. If they're going to watch something, have them watch a Disney classic, please, I really do fear for their future... (p.s. Not all those who vote for George Bush are idiots, but most are)
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.
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

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.
