Reviews

SnoopyStyle The members of the Ducks get scholarships to prep school Eden Hall Academy. Coach Gordon Bombay (Emilio Estevez) is not coming with them. The kids struggle against the Varsity team bullies and strict new coach Ted Orion (Jeffrey Nordling) as they try to grow up.The franchise has nothing left. The cute kids are older now. Emilio Estevez is simply doing a cameo. The movie is torn between its kiddie franchise DNA and high school drama. It's nice to see many of the kids return. It seems like an easy play to have some of the kids have some romance with each other. Charlie Conway (Joshua Jackson) is chasing new girl Linda but they have no chemistry. He's bitter and has no rooting interest. The franchise is unable to transform into something more. As a kiddie movie, it has run out of steam.

mrwu-2 Where to start. I've watched this a few times and it is just terrible. The hockey isn't even realistic. You would think owning an NHL team would have made Disney a little more aware of how the game works. The games aren't even remotely realistic. The varsity team is a joke. They can skate around and make a lot of plays that should be penalties, but they get away with them. One of the worst actors in this movie is the varsity head coach. He really overacts and his lines sound As always the ducks are underdogs and for some reason can't beat the big bad varsity who isn't really impressive. I found one of the most annoying characters besides the varsity coach is the announcer for the games. That kid has no acting talent and he must be a relative of someone at Disney which got him the role. Let's not forget Charlie crying all the time about losing his C. A real leader doesn't need a C on his jersey to lead. It looks like Eden Hall is supposed to resemble Shattuck St Mary's in Minnesota which is a well known hockey high school. I could go on and on forever. This movie isn't as bad as the 2nd one, but it sure gives it a run for its money.

elgatoenfuego Okay, I have one problem with this movie: when you win the world championship in the Olympics then go to college, guess what? You get to skip JV and advance straight to varsity. Especially if nearly the whole Olympic squad goes to the same school. Seriously, they have something to prove to the college coach? Um, watch some game tape of them winning the WORLD FREAKIN' CHAMPIONSHIP! Also, you're fired. Obviously this is a completely ridiculous movie franchise - shenanigans and tomfoolery are the very bedrock of the franchise - but I still can't get past that hang-up. It's even worse than the knuckle-puck from D2 (every hockey fan hates the knuckle-puck).

tfrizzell The gang gets scholarships to a high-class prep school in Minnesota due to their hockey skills. Naturally though the annoying titled characters have not outgrown their childish ways as the new freshmen have constant run-ins with new coach Jeffrey Nordling and the varsity snobs of the institution. Emilio Estevez is barely present and when he is around he does his best Jiminy Crickett in Disney's "A Christmas Carol" to show spoiled brat Joshua Jackson that he truly does have a wonderful life. Laughably sorry mess that is still a bit better than the first sequel, but that is not saying much. Estevez' absence is not that big a deal as Nordling does just as well as the primary adult in a childish duck pond of annoying adolescents who whine and bitch their way through every situation. A fitting end to a pointless series of pictures. 2 stars out of 5.
