    Underdog

    We loved it. My 10 yr old laughed out loud and was moved almost to tears when appropriate. It was a kid's feel good movie

    Underdog at least as good as you think it will be...

    It's hard to find a children's movie that the kids can watch and the parents are willing to sit through. Underdog was a good compromise. Entertaining and very cute. Not too dramatic or scary- so the 4 year old was fine. But just suspenseful enough to keep the 8 year old's attention.
    Overall, worth a trip to the movies.

    It's Great!

    The dog is adorable, and this movie is fun for all ages! I brought a seven year old, and he loved it and is STILL repeating his favorite lines! I also brought a two year old, and she stayed still the WHOLE time: and that's very hard to make her do! I recommend it because it is a great movie to see with friends and family, and the best part: it wasn't cheesy like most animated films!
