Mostly a good , solid movie, marred only by 2 sub-par plot lines. The whole Kenan thread was a bit ridiculous - I'm not sure you can add a player mid-Olympics, even the junior Olympics, but even if you could, has he ever ice-skated in his life? Maybe, but it's never even asked - but the only big problem I had with the thing was the stupid knuckle-puck. As a hockey fan, it was a moronic addition that would've been best left on the cutting room floor. Even with the ludicrous nature of the movie, this was a little bit out there. Much, much worse, however, was the giant disaster that was Gordon Bombay's coaching. First of all, he got a big head coaching a junior USA hockey team that had trouble winning a tournament without Canada (and I don't remember Sweden, Finland, Slovakia, or the Czech. Republic being represented either), so it was such an easy schedule that they should have swept, but they lost a few games and had trouble with freakin' Iceland in the finals. Weak. Here's a suggestion, you sexist blowhard: play your best goalie. I don't care that she's a woman, WHY WAS JULIE SITTING IN FAVOR OF GOLDBERG!?!? Goldberg didn't even practice in the offseason. He obviously was the goalie because he was the fattest kid on the team, not the best choice as a goalie. Now, that's fine last year, when it's just a regional thing meant to be fun and teach sportsmanship, but you're in the big leagues now (said/written mostly tongue-in-cheek), you have to play your best goalie, which was clearly Julie "The Cat." My buddy and I were talking about this, and agreed that the "secret weapon" status is exclusively the domain of a one-trick-pony type. In that case, Knuckle-puck Kenan could've been a nice option if you really wanted a secret weapon. (I almost titled this review "D2 Review" for the rhyming, but decided on the alliteration instead. I think I made the right choice.)

As much as I liked this movie, along with the other Mighty Ducks movies, I just have one question? Where is Canada? I mean, Iceland??? Sorry but it is just hard to get too into it knowing that the team that wins every tournament at all ages, said team being Canada, was not in there. Its too bad really because they would have smoked team USA just like they always do. That would have made the movie so much better! But I guess it makes sense in a way. I guess the writers of the movie knew that if they included Canada in the movie, it just wouldn't make sense to have Team USA beat them, so they put a team like Iceland in it instead so it would be easier for the Americans to win, and more realistic in a way. But still, Writers, Canada wins every time. It would have been nice to include them because we all know, there is nothing wrong with the team the movie is centred around, losing. Take for example, Sunset Park. The team doesn't always have to win to make a successful movie.

it's a real shame when the u.s.a. has to resort to inventing a champion hockey team so that the u.s.a. can be champions.iceland come on, a country that has never been mentioned in the same breath as hockey countries.we all know who the greatest country is in hockey ,just look to the neighbor to the north of the united states. are tract record speaks for it's self.30 million people in canada and a whopping 300 million in the grand old u.s. of a. and you still can't beat us and play on our level.hockey was invented in canada and the only teams on our level are over in europe, make a real movie about hockey and stop dwelling on your miracle on ice 1980.you haven't won nothing since except one junior championship gold medal.how can the world respect the united states when they disrespect the rest of the world.

Unfortunetely for us, the Estevez & Mighty Ducks fan, this was the last good ''theater'' movie of Emilio. It is very sad to say but it's the truth. That movie is really funny, you laugh even if it's way too much stupid. The cast play well their characters and they add new characters so it add a bit of fantasy in the movie for their new plot. It's not half the 1st but still it's pretty good! It's your typical fast-food sequel made for the big bucks but hey, they do what they can with that plot, it failed but for the fans it was a success!! Estevez always do movie at that time (D2, Judgment Night, Another Stakeout, Loaded weapon...) that man was everywhere and he was indeed my favorite, that's an actor I really miss!
