Underdog Kids Audience Reviews

FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
GazerRise Fantastic!
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
krbmedia These bad reviews are the problem with critics. Everything is about what they personally like and not an unbiased review. Is this movie The Godfather? No. But it's not meant to be. This is a kids movie and as such, it is very enjoyable.That's not to say there wasn't some things that could have been done much better, and the directing was not all it could be. But it was very sweet with a good message and the talents of the kids were incredible.Corny? Yes? Simplistic at times? Also yes. A fun time with your little ones? Yes, unless you're a cynic who wants their kids to be a hard and ugly as the adult world can be.Fun little kids movie. Nothing more and nothing less and that's OK.
Daniel N The martial arts choreography and stunts were good (and that's pretty much it). The story, the script and the characters felt so sub-par that it ruined the movie for me. It was so badly written, awkward, poor acting including the main actor, the martial arts master Phillip Rhee who both wrote and directed this movie, apparently not having any producers, co-producers etc. helping him with everything that is wrong with this movie. But as I said, if you can wade through what is almost a parody that might be called "Mighty Karate Ducks" you will see some really nice choreography and stunts. It's clear Phillip Rhee had a casting that focused on martial arts skill and not acting. His acting was weak too. Not worth the rent. If you have a serious craving for some martial arts and you've seen everything that is out there then you can at least check this one out an skip the nonsense between the martial arts sequences.
AlbertV79 Since hearing the announcement that Phillip Rhee would be returning with a new film, his first in 17 years, had me excited. Even more, the fact that martial arts legends Richard Norton, Don "The Dragon" Wilson, Danny Inosanto, Benny "The Jet" Urquidez, and Jun Chong were making cameos had me excited more. Rhee did a terrific job in not only giving a message about martial arts, but like the original Best of the Best, the film truly has heart.What's really great is that in my opinion, this film could be a stepping stone for a new generation of future action stars. Seeing martial arts champions Rayna Valladingham, Aidan Considine, Tyler Weaver, Andrew Franklin transition to film as well as Supah Ninjas' Ryan Potter and Sean Rhee (Phillip's son), this is truly a fun film to enjoy.If there is a film that martial arts film fans would want to break their kids with in watching the genre, this is truly one of those films to introduce them. A fun film with heart and some exciting martial arts action with a dose of family comedy.
Aktham Tashtush Gosh the movie is so damn slow for a karate supposedly action movie .. and the production and the montage is so old and cranky like you can notice the switching between scenes is flipping like an MS Power Point slides or maybe a movie maker ,, even the soundtracks are unbalanced and so scattered all over the place :P The story is predictable and not genuine and the plot is not really new and the script is so loose !! As for the Acting it is so freaking bad i believe that was the how it was when the first human invented acting !! the visuals and the cinematography are another bad story that is so noticeable especially in the final fights .. it is a 2015 movie on the style of bad even older version of the original karate kid ... Even the one with Jaden Smith is in so many levels much better than this.As for the cast ,, as i said earlier,, they're so bad at acting or maybe it was a montage problem !! if Phillip Rhee is trying to make a Jackie Chan experience out of this well i think he failed , and as for the kids my goodness i hope what i saw is just their "Learning Mode" .Overall,, it wouldn't say it was a mistake that i watched the movie , because i got the chance to see what the other underworld of movie industry is trying to do ,, so i wouldn't recommend it to anyone. and the 2/10 was for trying to do a movie of sort !!
