No other film (with the possible exception of Transformers) has left me with a sense of trepidation and dread as this Air Bud-looking live-action remake of the beloved cartoon.  No rhyme nor Shoeshine Boy here, though I must applaud the casting of Peter Dinklage as Simon Barsinister.  Jim Belushi, Alex Neuberger, Brad Garrett, Amy Adams, and Jason Lee as the voice of Underdog also star.  Check out the official site.  We will find out if there is a need to fear when Underdog crash lands in theaters on Friday.  Larger trailer available in the Full Diagnosis.
