Taking the inspirational sports movie template, then infusing it with so much weed and foul language that it deserves its own MPAA rating, The Underdoggs is a good example of what happens when Snoop Dogg steps into an otherwise familiar tween-age comedy to wreak havoc. Read full review

Snoop has obviously made a real-life impact in his community. Too bad he couldn’t make one in reel life as well. Read full review
