Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Disney had an unexpected hit with this predictable comedy about a smug lawyer (Emilio Estevez) busted for drunk driving and ordered to coach a sad-sack team of hockey-playing kids as community service. The kids triumph over their sundry problems, and Estevez's character grows up a little. End of story. A perfectly harmless movie for kids and adults who are giving their brains a night off. --Tom Keogh

Rating: - Thank you very much, Mr. Ducksworth. Quack, quack, quack, Mr. Ducksworth!
The kids classic The Mighty Ducks does everything right; case-end-point, Although there is much to be said for this beloved Disney tale.
Gordon Bombay(Emilio Estevez) was once a boy who loved hockey more then anything, when his father passes away and he loses the final shot for his team and their pee-wee championship he's scarred for life, and turns to a dark future as a no-good defense lawyer. When he gets court mandated community service to coach a pee-wee hockey team, (which ... Read More
Rating: - "You Quacked At Your Teacher ~ Ducks Fly Together!"
'The Mighty Ducks' released in '92 is probably the only film that can boast that its theatrical success launched a sports franchise. Fact or fiction, as a movie it found a large enough audience to convince Disney Studios to follow-up with two more installments of Mighty Duck Mania.
Plot: Self-absorbed young lawyer, Gordon Bombay (Emilio Estevez) is sentenced to community service for a traffic violation. His assignment is to fill in as the interim hockey coach for a local group of underachieving ... Read More
Rating: - In the beginning,when the Ducks were born.
Well first let me start off by saying the 1st and I mean 1st movie in a set of follow up movies all ways suck!Why,I'll tell you why.Because the 1st is always the beginning,which is always the formation,which is always the worst.Ex;The 1st season of Full House sucked,becuse...(well the Olsen twins cant really act anyway) but because it was the first time the actors all got together as one as an whole to do an t.v sitcom.They didnt know each other and probaly didnt react good together beause they were just learning ...

Rating: - I love this movie
I am not much of a hockey fan, but after watching this I have had a lot more respect for the sport! This movie is not all about sports; it also has a twist of romance. Everyone, sports fans and not, should watch this movie.
Rating: - Decent movie.........Not so decent DVD
Okay, so we all know the story about how the Ducks come from behind to win and how Coach Bombay gets revenge on his old coach for many years of bad memories.
Fair enough.
As corny and as thin as the plot can be at times, it's still a great story with good morals. It's definitely no Hoosiers or Rudy by a longshot, but it's Disney at it's best. It's a classic Disney sports movie as well as a great family film.
Now, the DVD. Let's just say that I sure didn't buy this movie ... Read More
