i remember see the very first trailer for underdog back last march and i also remember at the time smile to myself ever so slightly . sure it be a cheesy idea and but i genuinely think at the time the concept might work and hell it couldn not be any bad than the disappointing cat and dog could it . then by december and i suddenly remember the film i realise how likely the film be to suck and the fact it have be delay in the uk make it seem inevitable it would be terrible and but the horrendous review just make me realise it be nigh on impossible for the movie to be any good . still i swallow my feeling and go to see the film with a friend today and a i enter my screen i be mortify and it be the very first time i would be see a movie with a friend and be the only two in the screen . little do i know for what i be about to endure . underdog to put it blunt be horrendous and it really be . imagine how bad you could think this movie be and then prepare yourself for a movie even bad and that be just how pathetic the movie be . while it aim to entertain kid it just seem an embarrass mess that seem to insult kid rather than allow them to enjoy the movie . matter can not be help by the fact that the story be beyond lacklustre and the acting be generally poor and and the movie just feel like an over long and tired and downright bore saturday cartoon . after a brief five minute where i think the movie might be passable the movie just suddenly seem to die and then limp on towards the already sign post finale . i be just amaze the movie be actually ever release and it an embarrassment to disney and hell half their straight to video sequel be good than this . what even more terrifying be the fact the end leaf room for a sequel . so lets get onto the acting ( crack knuckle ) . okay let me be honest jason lee be decent and his voice suit the canine and and have he have be give a decent script he might have make the performance work . however and with such a dodgy script he just seem to flounder . in many way it remind me of bill murray in garfield and murray do what he could with what he have and but what he have wasn not enough to make it passable . then we get onto the human actor and and well the majority of atrocious . alex neuberger play the friend of underdog and jack . my big concern be that anybody would even take him seriously in an audition . the scene where he get to fly with underdog be perhaps the most cringe worthy scene in the past few year just because his acting be so poor . not once do i believe he be a real person and in fact part of me be still convince he be a robot make specially for the movie . james belushi seem half dead in the film and he have nothing to work with and no decent line and he just seem to wander around the set wait to become relevant to the plot and which the writer try to do towards the end but do it in such a poor way it laughable . thankfully peter dinklage be the one redeeming factor of the movie and he be great a dr barsinister and seem to be have a laugh in the role . he steal every scene he be in and although that hardly difficult when he share screen time with the extremely annoy patrick warburton . the rest of the cast be even bad and especially taylor momsen and she just need to end her act career right now . underdog also fail dramatically in term of deliver anything like a funny scene . when the funny scene involve underdog bite a can and cause dog food to explode everywhere you know there be something drastically wrong . this could be easily ignore if the movie have decent action or a good story and alas the movie be even bad in both of these term . the effect be so ropey that any scene where underdog fly just seem absurd and and the dog use his power to such little effect that you frequently forget he have superpower . what the point in make a film about a super dog if the damn dog never appear super . the final fight also verge on embarrass purely because it ten minute of nothingness and the dog fly and other stuff happens and some stuff get chuck about and all of this be irrelevant a this stuff be happen for the sake of stuff happen . the script as well be dodgy at best and downright pain inducingly awful at bad . when someone say look it a plane and no it a bird and no it a frog . and yes you read that right and i just want to burst into tear there and then . actually i want to walk out by remain compelled to see whether it could get any low than that point and this happen near the end so it doesn not thankfully . overall underdog become the bad movie of 2008 at this early period and and be actually just as bad a last year epic movie . luckily for underdog and meet the spartan arrive over here soon and i expect that to be even bad . so in case you do not get the point of my review and avoid the film at all cost and if you want to see a movie with a dog then watch cat and dog and buy a real dog if necessary and just do not see this .
