About
You’ll probably enjoy Underdog if you want a light, family-friendly superhero story with a talking, flying dog and lots of playful moments, but Not for you if you prefer darker realism or if you dislike fast-wearing novelty gimmicks like in Zoom.
Pros: heartwarming family fun; talking-flying dog charm; solid effects | Cons: gimmick wears off; tedious execution; boring finale
