LouHomey From my favorite movies..

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

xankin This movie is probably the stupidest movie I've ever watched. All the jokes are dumb and played out, like the generic villains going through idiotic " hi-jinx" like getting sewage and dog crap dumped on them. The acting is corny, and the story is just abysmal, with a side plot including the 10-year old brother having a crush on a girl that looks years older than him. Basically the plot consists of: Beethoven's family in the first 2 movies dumps him with their cousins, and from there on out is " Hi-jinx!" In the end, an unknown family member informs the cousins that the family increased their vacation from a week to a year. ( Geez, movie, no need to make that much sense.) Overall, it's moronic and torturous to watch, and I recommend getting yourself a copy to use as fuel for your next bonfire.

Danii Disaster I liked "Beethoven 1 & 2", and I knew this sequel was not likely to be as good, so I never had high expectations for it.I got what I expected. An average movie. There *is* some entertainment value, but it's nowhere near as good as the 2 of its predecessors.The acting was... not very good (to put it mildly).Well, Judge Reinhold was great, as always. A very underrated actor.The wife was also decent enough.But the kids were terrible, though. With so many talented child actors waiting to break through, they selected these good-for-nothing brats? They must have relatives amongst the crew, because I don't believe anyone would pick such talentless people based on a fair selection process.The kids in "Beethoven 1 & 2" were excellent. They were convincing in their roles, and their characters were pretty interesting and charismatic. That's what this movie is lacking: likable characters (except for Judge Reinhold -- he *is* very charismatic).I know movies in this genre are not supposed to be serious or realistic, but this was a bit much. That story with hackers made very little sense and was insultingly unconvincing (not quite as bad as in "Beethoven's Big Break", but still...). And the hackers themselves are p***-poor actors.All in all, it's probably a half-decent movie for pre-school aged kids, and it's just about watchable for adults, but... leaves a lot to be desired.

TheLittleSongbird I really enjoyed the first film, and while the second had its faults that was pretty good as well. Along with the fourth film, which is little more than a mediocre canine rehash on the classic Prince and the Pauper tale, this is one of the weaker films of the franchise. The soundtrack is great and Beethoven himself is fun and huggable, but everything else doesn't work. Judge Reinhold takes over from Charles Grodin, and while I have nothing personal against Reinhold, he overcompensates by acting almost every scene like it is an amateur dramatics pantomime. Julia Sweeney looks really lovely as his wife but she is underused and looks embarrassed. I am not surprised that the acting was sub par for they are very ill used with a badly underwritten script, very amateurish camera work and a very formulaic plot. I know the plot wasn't necessarily a strong point in the first Beethoven film, but at least that film had charm and fun. The pacing is also uneven, and as the increasingly silly and unfunny antics wore on I found myself bored and caring less for the characters, especially those rather clownish villains. Not to mention a flat climax that felt rushed and abrupt. Overall, disappointing and mediocre. 3/10 Bethany Cox

Jeremy Tempest Of all of the Beethoven movies, Beethoven's 3rd is the funniest! The second was pretty good, but this one has some hilarious moments. I don't care what anyone here says, I liked it. The 2 "bad guys" were hilarious. "I felt a great disturbance in the force, as if 7 gnomes cried out at once, and were silenced." The lanky dude is esoteric like this, either you get that style of humour or you don't. I do, so I think it's funny. The other guy is a speed junkie who drinks caffeinated beverages by the scads and has some pretty funny physical comedy scenes. Judge Reinhold was a great dad in this movie, and has some funny lines. The Shakiest Gun in the West, "That was one of the highlights of the trip", for pete's sake! Funny stuff.
