'Underdog' barking up the wrong tree
Sam Adams
Los Angeles Times
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.

Not unlike its accident-prone superhero, "Underdog" is clumsy, fast-moving and thoroughly inoffensive.

Parents who grew up watching "Underdog" may feel a twinge of nostalgia during the film's opening sequence, which affectionately revisits the series' modest, hand-drawn images. Modest, however, doesn't quite describe the rest of the movie -- which, even at a mercifully brief 80 minutes, is the sort of noisy, over-produced affair in line with much recent family-friendly programming.

Rated B-

This digitized update, with Jason Lee as a huskier, more generic Underdog, mostly drops the doggerel, but the endearing airborne-beagle effects help to offset the formula twists.
