Reviews for Air Bud
There's an air of acceptance throughout the film, but the movie never stops to stand at a pulpit and preach this message.
A basketball playing Golden Retriever shows his stuff on several high-school basketball courts.
I guess it was a pretty good movie, though I got a little bored halfway through and took a little snooze. I like air conditioning. There was lots of popcorn on the floor.
