The Bad News Bears Go to Japan (1978) Reviews

Member Rating:

Filling the shoes occupied by Walter Matthau in the Bad News Bears and William Devane in The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training, Tony Curtis takes on the role of the teams newest coach in this, the third installment in the series. Jackie Earle Haley returns as Kelly Leak, the Bears' star player, as the team ventures to the other side of the world to face off against the best little league team in Japan. While there, the Bears find their way into mischief and Kelly finds love with a local girl. Though this was the last entry in the film series a television series followed a year later. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

Even if you are the type who likes to watch complete movie series, do not waste your time on this piece of trash-sequel. This movie has very little to do with baseball! The directing and general storyline makes absolutely no sense at all. There are times in this movie that I just didn't understand what the director was thinking. I thought Blair Witch II was the worst sequel ever....Bad News Bears Go to Japan may be worse!
