Taylor Kingston I absolutely love this movie. It's so adorable. I love how it's sort of a spin off from Air Bud, which I also love. But instead of a kids movie about dogs, they make it a kids movie about dogs, that talk to each other. So we see it from the dog's point of view. This movie is fun, cute, sweet, teaches children valuable life lessons and is a movie that the entire family can enjoy. This movie has spawned many sequels where the puppies get into all sorts of adventures, from meeting Santa Clause, to being in a dogsled race, to going into space, to finding treasure.This movie is about five puppies. The "Air Buddies", as they are known. They're Budderball, Mudbud, B-Dawg, Bud-dah and Rosebud, the only girl. These puppies are very special. They are the children of a dog who can play basketball, baseball, soccer, volleyball and football. How adorable is that? The Buddies all live with different families, but they meet up to play. Their parents, Buffy and Molly are dognapped, the five adorable puppies, set off to say them. And it's adorable and hilarious.Family Friendly? Definitely.Overall, I give this movie a 10 out of 10.

Arlis Fuson OK lets recap..A young boy named Josh (Kevin Zegers) moves to a new town because his dad dies. He moves there with his mother (Cynthia Stevenson) and his younger sister Andrea. He finds a stray dog and finds out it can play basketball and he himself joins the team and him, his buddy Tom (Shayn Solberg) and dog Buddy win at the end, and he was having his dog taken away from him by the dogs rightful owner who abused him but he got it back...PART 2 - A vet named Patrick Sullivan moves in on Josh's mom and freaks little Josh out but he finds out Buddy can play football so he, along with his friend Tom, join the football team. There is Russian animal circus owner trying to kidnap Buddy, but it all works out in the end and they win the big game PART 3..Patrick Sullivan (played by a new actor) marries Josh's mom (played by a new actress) and all seems well, Andrea is older and plays soccer and Josh gets the hots for Andrea's British coach Emma so he joins soccer along with his friend Tom and finds out that Buddy can play soccer too, meanwhile Buddy mates with Emma's golden retriever Molly and they have pups, and a crazy dog catcher kid naps all the dogs and Josh and Emma and Andrea have to get them back just in time to win the big game. PART 4 has Josh in it for just a little while (Kevin Zegers departure from the series) and sister Andrea takes over and find that Buddy can play baseball and he joins the team, he has kidnappers on his tail and it all works out in the end. Patrick is now replaced once again with Richard Karn in the role and Cynthia Stevenson is back as the mom and they now have a son named Noah. Also the friend Tom sees his farewell here. PART 5 Cynthia returns as the mom but Patrick is replaced by Alf Humphreys and once again the Bo Jackson of animals (a.k.a. Buddy "Air Bud" Framm) this time around finds that hes pretty good at volleyball and yea kidnappers, puppies and so fourth.....NOW THIS BRINGS US TO A WHOLE NEW SERIES... AIR BUDDIES There is 5 puppies in this house -- The old house from way back when. Both Josh and Andrea are away at college and young Noah and the 5 puppies (there was once 6) live under one roof. Daddy Patrick (who goes by the name Patrick Framm although he used to be Patrick Sullivan and the name Framm is his wives original husbands surname)tells the back story of how their next door neighbor had a dog named Molly, who still lives there (although Molly was actually from a dog that lived in a mansion a good distance from them when the dogs originally met). Anyway the pups get rowdy and they try to find homes for them, but they are being kidnapped by bad guys...no sports are played and thats a bonus, and in the end it all works out and all 5 dogs are split up to loving kids... The End This story has major flaws, but it's a kids movie, it's a new franchise and I am the only dork that cares. This movie is loaded with C.G.I. and yes THEY TALK NOW!! All animals do.This series has ripped off 101 Dalmations so many times, and they are watching it at a drive in here. This movie has stupid things like the bad guys being trapped in a barn, with a cell phone but never call anyone. Such a silly movie.Actors and voices such as Don Knotts, Patrick Cranshaw (both who died shortly after this film was made) did good jobs as the sheriff and his hound. Cranshaw had played in some of the last air bud movies as well. Molly Shannon and Tom Everett Scott did the voices of Buddy and Molly and Abigail Brelin did a great job as Rosebud, the only female pup.Good for kids and much better than any of the Air Bud sequels.. 3/10 stars

M B We're all over 55 in this household and still enjoyed this movie. We rented this because we loved Air Bud. This movie is darling! Voices of the pups and other animals are perfect for each animal. Wallace Shawn as the goat's voice is right on! And Don Knotts for the bloodhound's voice, (Sniffer), is just great! If you're looking for a light movie that contains all the right family values and you think puppies are adorable, you'll want to watch this movie! Clearly, the animals were well trained. And the cameramen and editor did a great job. And the special effects were really good because all the little puppies look like they REALLY were talking! If you can, watch the other "Air Buddies" movies. We've seen two of the others and like them as well.

freakfire-1 Dear Richard, I know we all loved you on Home Improvement with Tim Allen. But seriously, do you not have anything else to do besides lame sequels to Air Bud? I would have thought Tim might have actually give you a bit role by now or even becoming his personal assistant. I know that seems ironic, but the pay benefits are much more rewarding.Everybody would see you around Tim and instantly think "Tool Time". You would even get roles with Bob Vila more often. Instead, you appear for 10 minutes with a Golden Retriever and smiling. I know there wasn't much of a script, but you could have added to it. I mean, come on. Tim owes you one.But seriously, this movie does nothing for the Air Bud line. Quite the contrary, the fake talking puppies are cornier than actually seeing the dogs play sports. The original was better. And you, Mr. Richard Karn, know that more than anybody.This is an "F" movie.
