Although it was more for the children, this movie did make me smile multiple times! Shoeshine was adorable, and I like how they kept with the original bad guys. True, it could have been better. The special effects could have been sharper and when the computers had to take over Underdogs flying and but kicking action, it could have been improved. But it could have been much, much worse. Walt Disney never lets us down, and in this movie, i certaintly wasn't!
