The world's most athletic Golden Retriever is back, and he's becoming a family man in this, the second sequel to the 1997 hit Air Bud. Josh Framm (Kevin Zegers) suddenly has a lot to get used to -- hi... read more read more...s mom Jackie (Cynthia Stevenson) has just tied the knot with her boyfriend Patrick (Gregory Harrison), and now that Josh and his best friend Tom have made the school soccer team, Coach Montoya (Miguel Sandoval) informs them that the team has gone co-ed -- Emma, whose family has just moved to America from England, will be playing alongside the boys. As it turns out, Emma's family has a Golden Retriever named Molly, and Molly makes the acquaintance of Josh's basketball- (and football) playing pooch, Bud. Soon Bud and Molly are the proud parents of a litter of puppies, and Josh and Emma discover that Bud's previously displayed ball-handling skills apply to the soccer field as well. But while Josh, Emma, and Bud are trying to push their team to the state championships, the clown-turned-dogcatcher Snively (Michael Jeter) has evil plans for Bud and his new family. Air Bud: World Pup marked the directorial debut of Bill Bannerman, who had previously worked as a producer and assistant director. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    I love all of the Air Buds. Kevin Zegers makes the film even better of course. The dog is so adorable.

    The air bud films lose more and more style as they progress, but as I watch them, they begin to fade away as the next installment comes into play. This film was not great, but it was okay. I still really, really like the first two installments.

    The third Air Bud movie of Air Bud series is a pretty interesting one that involves the dog named Buddy. This Air Bud movie in particular is all about him being a great soccer "dog" player!

    Golden Retrievers are cute, but there are too many Air Buds. And it doesn't even make sense. "Air Bud" meaning he's a friend who gains air like in Basketball which was the first movie of 'Air Bud'
