Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

fs-27498 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!!

SnoopyStyle Boog finds himself alone as everybody has other personal commitments. He goes into civilization and is tricked into joining a Russian traveling circus. His friends are tricked by the doppelganger.I'm pretty sure that the animation is much cheaper than the original. It is every bit the straight to video video. Even the designs are uglier. The original's animation is not that good either but this is worst. Boog and his friends are separated for most of the movie which takes away its chemistry advantage. The new characters are not that appealing. This is a B-level sequel of a B-level franchise.

Jan Strydom 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.

avapj I haven't seen the movie yet, but it sure doesn't sound like I want to buy it to add to the video collection. I only buy the ones I think my kids (5 of them) will want to watch over and over. If not, I feel like it's a waste of money. If they bug me enough about it, according the reviews here, I'll have to borrow it from the library.I liked Open Season 1 and we bought that. The kids watched it plenty. I bought OS 2 w/o reading reviews first, and was disappointed that I spent money on it to keep in our collection. It was "ok". Based on the reviews, I won't be doing that with OS 3. Too bad. :( Thanks everyone for the reviews.Sorry this isn't a real review of the movie, but if you're like me and really liked the first movie and didn't think much of the 2nd, maybe this is something we should stay away from spending our money on.
