San Francisco Chronicle (Peter Stack)
The third installment in the ``Mighty Ducks'' series of hockey comedies opens at Bay Area theaters today. It's a waddle through wearisome formula, a ``quack attack'' that makes a dull thud.
``D3: The Mighty Ducks'' struggles for laughs. Even its ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at San Francisco Chronicle (Peter Stack)
San Francisco Chronicle (Peter Stack)
The third installment in the ``Mighty Ducks'' series of hockey comedies comes out on home video this week. It's a waddle through a wearisome formula.

The Mighty Ducks are back and this time they're on scholarship to a snooty prep school. With Emilio Estevez. ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at kids-in-mind
Christian Spotlight on the Movies
In D3 Coach Bombay appears at the beginning, but after situating the "Ducks" at his old alma mater, Easton School, he heads off for bigger and better coaching opportunities. He appears later in the movie to save the team, so he is still the team's ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at Christian Spotlight on the Movies
Montreal Film Journal (Kevin N. Laforest)
Man, I'm such a sucker sometimes! This film does everything it can to be despicable, but I still had a good time watching it! It's almost the exact same farking movie than the first two, which were already rather mediocre. It's a criminally commercial ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at Montreal Film Journal (Kevin N. Laforest)
Los Angeles Times (John Anderson)
Will the puck stop here? Not a chance. "They named a pro team after us," notes one of the Mighty Ducks, just in case you've forgotten. Which wouldn't be easy.
The first 10 minutes of "D3: The Mighty Ducks" is a recap/regurgitation of the previous ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at Los Angeles Times (John Anderson)
The Boston Phoenix
What happens when you take a good idea way too far? D3: The Mighty Ducks, that's what. It's a pity, because the first installment was actually enjoyable. This time, Emilio Estevez goes on to bigger and better things and the Ducks are stuck with new coach. ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at The Boston Phoenix
Austin Chronicle (Nick Barbaro)
Yes, they're all back, those lovable cut-ups you remember from Mighty Ducks and D2 -- Banks, Fulton, the wise-cracking Averman, Connie, even Goldberg, the pudgy, awkward goalie. Only they're high-school age now and, get this, they all get recruited to be ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at Austin Chronicle (Nick Barbaro)
Doug Pratt's Laserdisc Review
Emilio Estevez is billed above the title on D3: The Mighty Ducks , a Walt Disney Home Video Letterbox Laserdisc release (9182AS, $30), but he only appears for about two minutes in the beginning and then disappears until side two, where he shows up for ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at Doug Pratt's Laserdisc Review
The Cincinnati Enquirer (Margaret A. McGurk)
The Mighty Ducks 3 is probably review-proof; kids who love the Ducks will clamor to see this movie no matter how lame it may be.
And it's pretty lame. It's mostly a collection of recycled highlights from its two predecessors, plus a few snippets of ...read the complete D3: The Mighty Ducks movie review at The Cincinnati Enquirer (Margaret A. McGurk)
