Boog, Elliot, and their forest friends return with an all-new adventure, this time in a Big Top Circus! The comedy begins when Boog's pals choose their family obligations over the annual guy's trip, and a disappointed Boog decides to take a trip of his own, which leads him right into the middle of a circus ring...literally. When he switches places with a devious look-a-like circus grizzly and falls for an alluring Russian troupe member, he'll come to realize that maybe you don't have to choose between family and friendship after all.

A Disappointing Continuation
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
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!!
We watched Open Season 3 at school. This movie is about a bear who wants to find more friends. So he goes out to the circus. He finds friends but something bad ends up happening.We liked this movie because... 1. Elliot the deer was silly. 2. It was weird when the bear and the other alpaca were together and they were getting along. 3. I liked how Boog was dancing with the other bear and when he was afraid of heights he went up on the tight rope and did his best. 4. One of our favorite characters is the alpaca because of his accent. 5. It was good, Boog and Elliot got into a fight and then they made up.We would recommend other classes watch this funny movie.
After years on IMDb, I created an account just to warn potential viewers about this movie. I was fortunate enough not to pay money for this garbage (Netflix). My kids watched the first two and I've seen bits and pieces, but I saw enough to know that the animation was high quality - deserving of the big screen. This, on the other hand, is the saddest, most blatant cash grab I've ever seen. With the 2nd movie, they lost their big name voice talent. With the 3rd, they apparently also lost the art talent. The CG in this film would seem dated in a 15 year old video game. Unnatural movement, poor textures and laughable scenery... Those are the things I would say if this movie looked twice as good as it actually does. The term "bait &switch" isn't commonly used in this industry but if any franchise deserves that label, it's this one. You will literally see better writing and animation from just about any Saturday morning cartoon nowadays. These people should be ashamed of themselves. On the bright side (for Sony Pictures), though, even if they only made a couple hundred thousand, they would have quadrupled their budget. I couldn't imagine they paid their staff more than minimum wage for this embarrassment.
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!
