The Underdoggs

As brother of a darker color, I'm glad that it's not just another slave movie or, another rise from struggle movie and or just the stereotypical movie that's suppose to appeal to me. I've seen em all and I'm all over those movies.

This movie wasn't really for me either. But I watched it. Didn't help me or improve my life in any way. But I appreciate the fact that something different was presented. It's too vulgar and way too out of touch for me and I couldn't sit down and watch this with my preteen son. I know he probably speak like a lot of the kids in this video when I'm not around, but if I ever found out, It would be a problem. I couldn't promote the behavior, disrespect and language that a lot those kids displayed. It definitely screams FATHERLESS. Also grownups carrying on as they did is insane. Speaking and acting like that in the presence of those kids, right on. It definitely screams FATHERLESS.

You do what you will with your kids and I'll do the same with mine. That's exactly why this movie is reminding that I'm getting old.

If you liked the movie "Hardball" with Keanu Reeves, you will like this. If you also like Snoop Dogg, bonus points.

Yes, there's a lot of swearing, but what do you expect from one of his movies?

There's even a kick-ass disclaimer at the very beginning about the language 😂

Overall enjoyable, funny, great sports/celeb cameos, and as far as "remakes"/recycled ideas go, this one was done well (I'm not coming for Snoop or anyone involved in the film but let's face it, there's nothing totally original in Hollywood anymore, every flick has at least one reused idea/plot/character-forming "twist")

So spark a blunt or pass the bowl, sit back, and enjoy!

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.

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'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.
