Description

Air Bud – World Pup [VHS]
Kevin Zegers (Actor), Dale Midkiff (Actor), Bill Bannerman (Director) Rated: G (General Audience) Format: VHS Tape

Disney is proud to present the second heartwarming and hilarious sequel to the popular family favorite, AIR BUD! Buddy masters two new starring roles … soccer player and father. AIR BUD: WORLD PUP is loaded with laughs and cool soccer action as Buddy teams up alongside U.S. women’s soccer greats Brandi Chastain, Briana Scurry, and Tisha Venturini, meanwhile keeping a protective eye over his adorable new family of soccer-playing puppies!

Three is a charm for the Air Bud franchise, which returns to the screen to showcase the athletic talents of Buddy, the golden retriever who made his film debut as a basketball star in the original Air Bud (1997). If the second movie, Air Bud: Golden Receiver (1998) wore out its welcome (with Buddy as a football dynamo), Disney’s third installment seems to have rekindled its initial freshness. Buddy takes to the soccer field this time, and he has the immense good fortune of being joined by real-life U.S. Women’s Soccer Team champions Brandi Chastain, Brianna Scurry, and Tisha Venturini, among others. Kevin Zegers returns to the story as Buddy’s owner, who falls in love with the only girl on his own soccer team. While sparks fly on and off the field in that romance, Buddy has a love interest of his own and soon becomes a father to six puppies. The drama heightens when a couple of puppy thieves (who closely resemble Jasper and Horace from 101 Dalmatians) pose as dog catchers and make off with the pups. A hilarious chase, assisted by dozens of courageous canines, ensues. Dog lovers in the audience will be pleased to know there is no insinuation of dog abuse here and there are no sad pet moments. Parents can rest easy knowing their kids will enjoy plenty of entertainment while viewing some great soccer stunts by real-life champs.

Teenager Josh Framm’s mother, Jackie, has just married her veterinarian boyfriend, Patrick Sullivan. Josh and his best friend, Tom Stewart, have just made their school’s soccer team when their coach reveals that their team will become co-ed. Josh meets Emma, an attractive girl who just moved with her family from England; and not only will she be playing on his soccer team, but she also has a golden retriever named Molly. Molly quickly has puppies with Josh’s basketball and football-playing dog, Buddy. Next, it is discovered that Buddy also has the uncanny ability to play soccer.
