D2: The Mighty Ducks -- Thoroughly predictable sequel takes the peewee hockey team to the Junior Goodwill Games where the coach (Emilio Estevez) becomes temporarily distracted by lucrative sports endorsements while his young players prepare to take on the mean, lean team from Iceland. Director Sam Weisman piles on the hockey footage as the cliche-ridden narrative steadily sinks under various characters' dull sermonizing about the commercialization of athletes and the nobility of team sports. Some rough play on the ice and a sprinkling of profanity. (A-II) (PG) 1994
