The Underdoggs

The Underdoggs is a unfunny generic comedy starring Snoop Dogg as a Pop Warner head football coach. The movie has a paperthin predictable story that is not really funny even though it's categorized as a comedy. I'm very curious to know why Amazon Prime decided to pick this movie up. This movie really seems like a straight to dvd movie. Mike Epps who also co-stars in this one provides some much needed comedy and jokes with being only the bright spot to the film. The football scenes in this are pretty standard and nothing to get excited about. Even the football scenes in the Little Giants was more exciting then this. Even though the movie's premise might make you think this is a family friendly movie it's far from it as it's rated R because bad language is thrown in every scene every 2 minutes. The Underdoggs gets a very weak 4 stars out of 10 from me.

It's Mighty Ducks as told by Snoop Dogg... brought to you by Raisin Canes. It never once claimed to be a kids movie. I see people literally stating they got offended and didn't make it past the opening credits. This movie wasn't made for you. In fact, you should just listen to the song they walk out to at halftime during the last game, because it's talking about you: "Little B-A-P-A-B's"

The message and theme of the story is actually pretty straightforward and heartfelt. Once his character gets through the first act of being a washed up, selfish primadonna, our hero goes through a clear - albeit predictable - character arc. Some of the humor is actually pretty self-aware and dare I say - funny... They weren't going for an Oscar here. It's just a 90 minute junk food movie with a decent message shrouded behind adult language and humor. If you don't like it, whatever. But anyone giving it a 1/10 simply because it lives up to what it promises within the first 2 seconds of pressing play is a total B-A-P-A-B.

There are now new concepts here and no one is winning any Oscars.

It's a plotline so threadbare even the homeless won't wear it, but its fun, lighthearted and entertaining. For the most part it's well written and well acted. Snoop Dogg does a great job with the meterial and delivery and he brings much of the content to life with his character and expression.

Yes, there is a lot of profanity, it's Snoop Dogg for Christ sake! What did you expect. Omar Epps is pretty good too, probably one of his better supporting roles to date. The rest of the cast are pretty forgettable though they all deal with the content sufficently well.

If your sensitive about profanity DON'T WATCH IT! It's not for worse if you can't handle kids dropping MF like an OG.

I am a long time fan of Snoop Dogg. This is a fun movie that has a lot of salty language from every section of the cast, so, get used to it and be rewarded with some brilliant one liners that will have you laughing out loud!

It's a sports movie only in that it does show what sportsmanship is about - trying your best to win, but being gracious all the way around - just like I envision Snoop Dogg to be in his real life. (Make sure to watch the credits!)

There are two great dogs in it! Pit bulls who are very well behaved and sweet. They are actually kind of funny too...

Is this a movie for kids? Not really. But it is a fun movie for adults who wish their kids' coaches are a bit more like "Two Js".

And an absolute must for any Snoop Dogg, Omar Epps fan. Also a good part for George Lopez too. It fit him well. All around, the cast was fun to watch and root for - or against! Enjoy!

I'm glad I took a chance to watch this movie. Knowing Snoop's history with youth football, I figured it'd be a good watch. It was hilarious and entertaining throughout. Even above that, the kids did an amazing job in their roles. The kids showed that they had greatness beyond their circumstances-beyond letdowns they experienced. I hate to break it to you...but kids cuss. Even when you think they don't. Those underprivileged kids you say you care so much about...oh, a lot of them cuss a lot. I also hate to break it to you that this isn't the end of the world.

Some of the nastiest, most vile things have been said and done towards people without a single curse word. So I'm always peeved by people that let a few curse words keep them from a good story. With the things some kids have to experience (through no fault of their own), cussing is the LEAST of their worries.

Also, there was a warning in the beginning of the movie. You could've skipped the movie and climbing your high horse altogether. For everyone that "dares" to see a movie with kids cussing, the movie had a great underdog message and I think you'll enjoy the movie overall.
