- After an accident in the mysterious lab of maniacal scientist Dr. Simon Barsinister (PETER DINKLAGE), an ordinary beagle unexpectedly finds himself with unimaginable powers and the ability to speak. Armed with a fetching superhero costume, UNDERDOG (voiced by comedian JASON LEE) vows to protect the beleaguered citizens of Capitol City and, in particular, one beautiful spaniel named Polly Purebread (voiced by Academy Award(r) nominee AMY ADAMS). When a sinister plot by Barsinister and his overgrown henchman Cad (PATRICK WARBURTON) threatens to destroy Capitol City only UNDERDOG can save the day.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Underdog works best when spoofing superhero conventions, but the film goes to the dogs thanks to a drab story"
-
"Despite the talent on show, there's little to distinguish this from any other bland family comedy."
-
"Underdog is made for the Saturday morning TV crowd, and parents who lead their tykes to this adventure aren't likely to leave disappointed."
-
"Whatever the intent, the result is unfit for humankind."
-
"A film like Underdog is best defined by its complete lack of distinction."
-
"The sort of noisy, over-produced affair in line with much recent family-friendly programming."
