Author: Lee Eisenberg (eisenberg.lee@gmail.com) from Portland, Oregon, USA

I pretty much have no respect for movies like "The Mighty Ducks". OK, so it's basically a harmless movie. But stories of the underdog figuring out a way to win against all odds has long since turned into a cliché ("Rocky" was the original, and it had a purpose). Emilio Estevez has starred in much better movies (e.g., "The Outsiders").

To this movie's credit, I will say that the more-like-a-circumcision scene was pretty entertaining. This is far from the worst movie ever. But seriously, there are too many movies like this. As it is, Stephen Herek hasn't made much of a name for himself as a director. His only good movies were "Critters" and "Mr. Holland's Opus". Otherwise, aside from this movie, he's directed stuff like "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead" and "Life or Something Like It". Basically, he competes with Michael Bay and Renny Harlin for the position of Worst Director in the World.

So my recommendation is to avoid this movie.
