The Hollywood ReporterJordan MintzerJan 25, 2024
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

The underdog formula doesn’t work in this film. Highlighted by Snoop Dogg’s ham-fisted acting, the script really doesn’t allow for any sort of forgiveness of his character’s oversights. 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
