The incredible true story of a large and handsome man who was good at football and — thanks to his enduring faith in Jesus Christ — never gave up on his dream of playing it for enormous sums of money, Andrew and Jon Erwin’s “American Underdog” doesn’t quite sell the…
davidehrlichOct 4, 2022Inspirational Christian movie about how with the help of Jesus a woman who looks like Gozer the Gozerian and has two kids from a previous marriage can bag a Super Bowl winning QB. Truly Brenda Warner is the greatest underdog story.

As far as faith-based football movies go, this is one
Zachary VaughnApr 30, 2022Despite following many of the tropes of both biopics and sports movies to the letter, this real-life Cinderella story still has a certain charm. In the style and writing, there is an inspirational element that is almost characteristic of Christian cinema, and the Erwin…
Rafael "Mister Movie" JovineDec 25, 2021This movie already sucks but the fact that they used a 40-year old man to act as a 5th year senior just tops it off

This one was a beautiful surprise. It’s been so long since I saw a sudden feel good drama that actually worked. The whole cast especially Zachary and Anna were amazing. Their relationship and their whole family were sweet and full of love and warmth. The two kids…

If this depiction is accurate then Kurt Warner is the greatest guy ever. Really sweet story. Disclaimer: watched this on a plane so might’ve enjoyed this more than I normally would have
Robert Weber likedAmerican UnderdogMy 12 yearold boy recommended this one. I didn’t think I would like it but I gave it a shot. By the second half of the movie I started to have tears forming in my eyes. Really good movie. I knew a bit about Warner being a hardcore NFL fan but the human side of his journey is epic
Blake_Wats likedAmerican UnderdogSuper cool, true story
- Christian likedAmerican Underdog
This movie is really good. Zachary Levi gets better with each scene. But make no mistake, this is not just about Kurt Warner the football player, this is about Kurt Warner the person. And even though there is nothing incredibly outstanding, the inspirational underdog story works.
Alex Ruppert likedAmerican UnderdogHonestly thought it was a pretty good movie. I didn’t know much about Kurt Warner before this so I thought they did a great job telling his story and relationships. I thought some of the dialogue was a bit cheesy. Overall solid movie with a good story and a lot of heart.
Nick Dubberly likedAmerican UnderdogA truly amazing underdog story about what can happen when you never give up on your dreams! I’ve been a fan of Zachary Levi ever since he was in Chuck and with football season starting up this week I figured this would be a perfect time to finally check this out.
- Judd Ong likedAmerican Underdog
I accidentally loved this movie. I liked it. But I wasn’t good enough for love. Sometimes football blinds my judgment. And the actor they picked also played a superhero so I only thought abt him. That’s all.
cassius casanova dislikedAmerican Underdogwatched this when it first came out… well at least the actual man this is about is very easy to like. kurt warner’s story deserved to be made into a better movie
Luke is "meh" onAmerican UnderdogThe relationships with every character were so rushed it wasn’t developed at all. Actors were also too old it didn’t feel believable, but it had a good ending

We enjoyed this film very much. It’s so nice to watch a film and not hear or see the trashiness that most films today are loaded down with.

NLNancy LeMaitreWent with my husband because he loves football and I have to say it was a really good movie. No swearing or sex!! Love that God was and is credited for his success. Bring your kids and go see it

The problem, though, is that American Underdog doesn't ever really connect the modest virtuousness of Kurt and Brenda to Kurt's ascension as a quarterback.

American Underdog is a film so disjointed, so boring and so deeply uninspiring that it is difficult to root for anyone, or even think of Warner as a genuine underdog.

The film is sanitized to the point of sterility.
