Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

"Another thing was what was up with the 9-0 comeback?" that is possible i played some bantam hockey games where the periods are 12 minutes each and we score 10 goals or so in a period a few times. it is possible. we beat one team 24 to 6.this was a good movie though. i missed Portman and Bombay. i actually want to get a replica of the jerseys. if you can help me find one let me know.the varsity is played by the same guys as the hawks in the first movie. they have such different personalities.this is a very good movie. i recommend it.

Unlike many other people I really enjoyed this movie. I thought the lesson that "there comes a time when you must let things go" was well conveyed. Charlie learns that, even though "the ducks" were the best thing that has ever happened in his life, great things can end and began again in a different way. D3 had quite a few coming of age lessons that is tried to teach from misjudging people to contemplating your future. (spoiler) When Hans died I cried and cried. Over all it was my favorite Mighty Ducks movie. Yea Emilio Esteves was not in most of it but that was just another part of a lesson they were trying to teach

Now I hate this saying, because frankly, there are so many actors who have been horribly typecast as kids because of this saying, but The Might Ducks movie doesn't work as well with the grown up ducks! Now I didn't have too many problems with this film, I just wasn't that impressed or moved by it. I think many would agree, it's like seeing Rocky in Rocky 5, he's so old and you're afraid that he's going to break a hip boxing. Well, that's D3, the kids are more grown up and less interesting because we know when they become teens, they're less interested in what kept them happy as children.The kids have scholarships to one of the best high schools, and now have a new coach, Coach Orion. Orion is completely different from Gordon, he's a little tougher and has more rules, but you learn why he is that way later on. The kids also have to worry about the Varsity team of the high school, because this is the team that has the big time seniors on it that want to pick on little freshman. And they do so through silly 5 year old pranks.While it's not a terrible movie, I liked the second Mighty Ducks a little better and it worked more than D3. But I can see this movie working for pre-teens, I'm serious, because I think they could relate to the film a little bit of being the new kids in school. But for adults alone, I'm not sure, to each his own.

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.
