Open Season 3 (2010)

This ruined the series for me. Why. Just why?? In the movie, they added a lot of characters that we did NOT know or heard about. Even in Open Season: Scared Silly, they disappear!! In Open Season 3, there were some scenes that were unnecessary. For instance, in the start of the move, Boog, wakes up from a cave?? Since when did he lived in a cave?? Anyways, he gets excited for "one day of guy's trip." Then, he goes outside and start to shake his butt. WHY? That was extremely unnecessary and uncalled for. And remember Elliot and Giselle? They had KIDS!! And Guess what? In the ending of the movie, EVERYBODY SHAKE'S THERE BUTT!!! WHO MADE THESE SCENES!!!??? WHO DID IT AND WHY!!!??? Then boog goes to a circus for some reason and makes friends with a LAMA and a TWIN VERSION of boog named Doug. Okay then. Then in one scene, boog falls in love with a character (i forgot what her name was.) But she thinks that Boog is Doug. Boog tries to tell her, but she never listens. Elliot, Ian, and the rest of the gang try to save Boog from going to....Russia???? In conclusion, I think this was a movie we didn't ask for and to be the worst movie of the whole series!

Fmovies: Apparently, Sony Pictures Animation always becomes incompetent when it comes to making these things. I mean, the first movie was fine, but why there are not one but THREE sequels is beyond me. Open Season 3 is possibly the worst out of all the Open Season films. The entire movie itself was a disaster!

There is barely even a story, but instead, the writers decided to put nearly TEN sub plots, and I can't even tell what the real plot is! As for the animation, how should I put this? It's incredibly lazy, ugly, and unwatchable. They didn't bother to animate that many circus animals, but instead would have just two bears, a llama, and some cats and dogs, (which are just the same ones from the last movie, but are lazily copied and pasted but in a different color) that's it! The textures are awful, some of the designs are horrible, and the color scheme is just as entertaining as looking at puke for 80 minutes.

And just like Ice Age, they add WAY too many characters that are either irritating, stupid, or even annoying. Even the old characters are bland! But let's start with the new characters shall we? First off, for some reason, they gave Elliot three children, in which may not contribute anything to the plot, but at least they didn't annoy, or bother me as much as Elliot, which I will cover later. Then there's this Russian circus bear, Doug who has no reason to be in thee film do to how unfunny and stereotypical he is. The llama was like the one from Emperor's New Groove, but with no wit or charm. And the female bear is just there to be the love interest to Boog.

Aside from that, there's the old characters, INCLUDING Elliot, who is the worst character in the movie! He acts like a child, he doesn't shut up, and he doesn't treat his children like he's their father, in fact his kids are much more tolerable and nicer to him, yet he never keeps an eye on them, nor would he actually listen to them when they agree that rabbit fights are boring without Boog. As for Boog, he's just as bland and pointless as the rest of the characters in this abomination!

Overall, Open Season 3 is just as fun as being shot in the head with a gun, or being stabbed to death. I don't see a single shot of effort from the filmmakers put into this crap! The story is a mess, the characters are annoying, the animation is horrible, and the humor is all over the place!!

I watched OPEN SEASON 3 with a friend of mine and his daughter who was actually a big fan of the first film and the second but this third film I have to say was total and utter crap, I was annoyed as hell with this film for two reasons and at one point my friend's daughter who is eight actually begged us to turn it off.

1. The once likable Boog and Elliot have been reduced to two loud mouth overly obnoxious idiots that are worse than a bunch off two year old boys that throw temper tantrums and the rest of the characters were loud and obnoxious too.

2. The humor in this film was totally inappropriate for a kids movie, it was mostly a bunch of rude jokes I didn't get and I seriously doubt that the initial target audience which I'm assuming are kids under ten will get them either, although some kids have surprised me but its still not right.

Overall, if Sony animation decides to bring out OPEN SEASON 4 and its way worse than this, I would avoid their animated films like the plague.

Open Season 3 fmovies. It hasn't been too long ago since Open Season lastly got it's own sequel, and that one became a horrible wrenched film I wish to keep out of my mind forever. Now 2 years later, we get a new one and it's more crazier than we can imagine.

Set fully short after Elliot and Giselle became husband and wife, they have children of their own named Gisela, Gesalita and Elvis. Elvis looks a lot like his dad and even loses not one, but two antlers just like him. And the twins, Gisela and Gesalita, resembles their mom expect to tell the difference, one has a black nose and brown eyes and the other one has blue eyes and a pink nose. And this of course makes Boog the uncle cause he has a brotherly relationship with Elliot.

Well as the movie begins, Boog has made a plan just to hang out with the guys, not just with Elliot, but also with Ian, Reilly, McSquizzy and Buddy. But the whole thing becomes a total waste when everyone couldn't make it, especially Elliot who lets his partner down. Heartbroken, Boog sets out on his own for the trip, but it leads him a circus where he befriends a llama named Alistar and a bear named Doug, who looks just like Boog. But that's not the only thing missing; there right away Boog falls crazy in love for Usla, a female Russian bear.

Doug decides it's time he switches places with Boog so he can be the only bear and become king of the forest. But right away when it happens, everyone realizes that their old dear friend grizzly bear, ain't the same guy so they must find a way to save their pal before it's too late and he'll be gone to Russia forever.

Like most direct-to-video sequels, you'll know that they can't make good money, so this one goes out to the same as the other one. Cheap actors, lame story writing, and poor directing. It makes up for the second sequel after being so bad, but that still doesn't make the third sequel any good. So the new characters drop down too! After viewing this, I hope that Sony Pictures can cut down to their ideas. They're not good, and they never will be. So they just leave all of the direct-to-video making to Disney cause that's what they were there for in the first place!

I loved this movie..... the plot was funny and my grandson and I enjoyed it.... as it is an animated movie for children! However, I guess I must be a big kid because I was locked on to it until the end! The relationship between the bear and the deer was complicated, however it showed how complex friendships can be. The movie also highlights how friendships change when one of the friends gets married or has a lifestyle change. I think it has a good message for kids. Also, the movie shows a female in a "control-type" role, I liked this quality. The 'mom' took care of everything, and made sure that the family was working correctly... so much like real life. I could see how young kids could relate to this... Now I can't wait to see 1 and 2!

Although it was less than perfect, I enjoyed the first Open Season. The second was bland but had its moments. Apart from two characters, Roger who I've always liked and is quite fun here and Fifi mainly for Crispin Glover, Open Season 3 is a mess. The animation is mostly sub-par, the background art needed more fluidity and the character designs are blocky. The music has some jaunty moments but overall forgettable. The writing is poor, the jokes are neither clever or witty and the dialogue is a vast majority of the time unfunny. The story is thin, predictable and I think rushed too, and the characters apart from Fifi and Roger are no longer likable and cute. The voice acting is mostly lifeless, with the replacement for Billy Connolly's accent embarrassingly overdone. In conclusion, not recommended at all sadly. 2/10 Bethany Cox
