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.
Little kids cussing? Why? Feels like it was just used fo cheap laughs. Low hanging fruit. This movie would have benefited so much from a high school football team. You could have had larger crowds and the profanity wouldn't have been so off putting. And I don't even have a problem with profanity but this was just distasteful and took away from the story.
It's like if Role Models and Little Giants had a baby that was raised by Ice Cube. I wouldn't say I was necessarily bad but it wasn't nothing to write home about. Something to watch if you're bored but I wouldn't spend any money on the Snoop vanity project. It was... Ok.

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.

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.

First of all, anyone complaining about the language of this movie just wants to complain. It is rated R for language, provides a disclaimer explicitly about language, and it stars Snoop Dogg. So if you want to ignore all three warning signs, that's on you haha.
This is a movie that's good for laughs and entertainment. It is the perfect kind of stupid movie to watch when you want to turn your brain off and just pop some popcorn to have 90 minutes of fun. It's corny and cheesy and yes, extremely profane. I didn't expect anything different from the trailer.
It was incredibly predictable in its format, and some of the jokes didn't exactly land. Some parts were a little clunky and could've been better for the sake of comedy. But overall, it was exactly what it should've been. A fun and raunchy underdog story.
