Underdog Ratings & Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Marrit Ingman
The elements of the film don't quite mesh: The villains are cartoony, but [director] Du Chau aims for soggy family drama in his father-son story.
eFilmCritic.com
Peter Sobczynski
The film is a smug and contemptuous mess from beginning to end that is likely to bore little kids and aggravate any adult still holding fond memories of the character from their own childhoods.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
John Beifuss
An underachiever.
Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA)
John Wirt
A very bad dog of a movie.
Sacramento News & Review
Jim Lane
...not as bad as it might have been...
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
The endearing airborne-beagle effects help to offset the formula twists.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
Whatever the intent, the result is unfit for humankind.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
The lackluster story connects the clichés but leaves the characters isolated. Underdog may have been originally created to sell cereal for General Mills, but this latest incarnation couldn't sell Frisbees at a dog park.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
Underdog is made for the Saturday morning TV crowd, and parents who lead their tykes to this adventure aren't likely to leave disappointed.
Chicago Reader
Joshua Katzman
The TV show was mildly subversive, with humor that children and adults could enjoy on different levels, but the movie strives for a blander, family-oriented middle ground.
Boston Globe
Janice Page
Where (oh where) are Tennessee Tuxedo and Phineas J. Whoopie when we need them?
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Besides, if I start talking about the film I'll only get depressed, and when a woman of my three-decade age gets depressed all that therapeutic ice cream goes straight to her thighs and none of us want that, now do we?
Slant Magazine
Rob Humanick
A film like Underdog is best defined by its complete lack of distinction.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
I have an idea for the sequel: Underdog Vs. Michael Vick.
Los Angeles Times
Sam Adams
The movie's sloppiness is galling, especially given its target audience. It's one thing to feed grown-ups junk, and another to serve it to consumers too young to know they're being had.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
Underdog, putting it mildly, lacks the sleekness and cunning of other, better kids' flicks, though it gains points for respecting, while modifying, its source material.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
Good one-liners and dog tricks, but no best in show.
Variety
Justin Chang
The sort of noisy, over-produced affair in line with much recent family-friendly programming.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
Serious movie standards aren't necessarily required in an entertainment like Underdog. Still, as with most movies, it's frustrating to watch Hollywood undercut the intelligence of its target audience.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
There may be no need to fear now that Underdog is here, but there is no reason to feel very happy, either.
