Konterr Brilliant and touching

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

O2D I love Kiss but their comic books usually suck so I wasn't expecting much from this. I hate that the comics always seem to center around The Elder but this movie mixes it up by throwing in a black diamond and even a bad guy named the Destroyer, who looks an awful lot like Galactus(he even threatens to swallow the earth). Ironically, The Elder was voiced by Penny Marshall and she was entertaining so I wouldn't have minded more of her. It's a decent story and there's a couple full songs(over very long chase scenes). Five stars.

ctyankee1 I love the Scooby Doo series and movies. This movie was different the art was excellent and the visuals and animation was colorful and great. A Korean company Digital eMation Inc did a lot on this film along with others. There is a lot of action, and suspense confusing at times There is also lots of Kiss music as the characters are chased.I felt the characters especially Kiss and the females were drawn too sexy. At the end the women in costumes had breast too big for kids cartoon or for even me I found it kind of offensive.The musical group "Kiss" that was popular over 20 years was in this with their painted faces. I did not like their music years ago or their painted faces and I did not like them in this movie. I don't know why this group was included with Scooby Doo to make a movie unless it is because of the Halloween season. The Scooby characters were basically the same Frank Welker,Mindy Cohn,Grey Griffin and Matthew Lillard all very good and funny.Penny Marshall who played years ago in Lavern and Shirley was "The Elder" who was supposed to be a strong good character spoke with a lisp which did not sound good.What was really funny is the regular Scooby characters like Scooby and Shaggy their hunger and shaking in fear is comical. Velma is still the one with the commence and brains.The movie is over an hour. The gang solves the mystery.

Argemaluco The film Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park is one of the best worst good bad movies in the History of the world... at least for fans of Kiss (such as me). And Scooby Doo! And Kiss!: Rock and Roll Mystery simultaneously works as an animated pseudo-sequel and an appropriate crossover with the Scooby Doo universe. Needless to say, the screenplay is irrelevant. The "monster of the week" is the Scarlet Witch, but her actions lack of logic and motivation... except for the creation of a "mystery" which must be solved by the "Scooby-gang" and Kiss, who secretly possess supernatural powers associated to their distinctive personalities: Demon, Star Child, Spaceman and Catman. The real names of the band members are never mentioned, but Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer lend their voices to the respective characters, and they do it well; I would particularly want to point out the fact that Simmons had a lot of fun with his work as the aggressive Demon, who initially hates the "Scooby-gang", even though he eventually finds out the fact they are good investigators and might help to save Kiss World, the exotic amusement park based on the music from Kiss. As for the "Scooby-gang", we have Frank Welker, Matthew Lillard, Mindy Cohn and Grey Griffin lending the voices to their traditional roles. And I would also like to mention some unusual guests in supporting roles, such as Darius Rucker, Jason Mewes, Kevin Smith and Garry Marshall; Might they be fans of Kiss, or did they just need some cents for the laundry? Anyway, I appreciated their presence, because they bring personality and enrich scenes which would otherwise be irrelevant. Scooby Doo and Kiss!: Rock and Roll Mystery can't be taken seriously as a "mystery", and maybe, not even as part of the Scooby Doo saga (even though I haven't watched various of its straight-to-DVD films, so making a comparison wouldn't be fair). The attraction offered by Scooby Doo and Kiss!: Rock and Roll Mystery begins and ends with the presence of Kiss, and only the fans of the band will be able to appreciate the uncountable details related to the life and work from that music group (including references to Psycho Circus, the old Marvel comics and the conceptual disc The Elder). Other examples: the names of some characters are straightly taken from song titles (Delilah, Shandi); Chip McGhoo's character is played by Doc McGhee (the group's veteran manager), who doesn't lose the opportunity to satirize the band's excessive commercialization, recommending the most recent Kiss commodity, such as medicinal salts and binoculars. And, of course, we have various classic Kiss songs to accompany some surrealistic "action" sequences set in a parallel dimension equally influenced by H.P. Lovecraft and Jack Kirby (Simmons is a fan of both, so it's easy to guess the inspiration for that design). In conclusion, Scooby Doo and Kiss!: Rock and Roll Mystery is very far from being a great film, but I found it a decent cultural curiosity with enough humor and allusions to keep the fans of Kiss entertained. And don't forget to watch the "easter egg" during the final credits, in which Kiss plays a song of "The Five Ascots" (the character Fred's favorite group) in a doo-wop style very different to the usual rock from the band.

TheLittleSongbird As a huge Scooby Doo fan, Scooby Doo! And KISS: Rock and Roll Mystery may not be one of the best of the Scooby Doo films in the way Witch's Ghost, Zombie Island, Big Top, Mask of the Blue Falcon and Goblin King are, but it is hardly a lesser effort (Monster of Mexico is my personal least favourite) and is definitely worth a watch.The animation is great, some of the most imaginative and funky of any Scooby Doo film. Everything is beautifully drawn and meticulously detailed, with rich, atmospheric colours and a lot of care and time clearly went into how the characters were drawn and move. Even better, and perhaps the best thing about the film, is the terrific rock and roll soundtrack filled with a mix of KISS' biggest hits and songs every bit as catchy, KISS fans will be in KISS heaven almost certainly.Scooby Doo! And KISS: Rock and Roll Mystery is a smartly written and funny film as well, with some endearing goofy slapstick and jokes, great inside jokes with KISS and witty digs at Fred's taste in music and commercialism in the business. The story is always diverting, love the over-the-top strangeness of the KISS scenes and it didn't feel too much of a KISS rock video and while the ending did feel rushed, not quite explained enough and the identity of the villain a little obvious the mystery is fun and suspenseful.The characters all engage, Scooby and the gang are true to personality, fun to watch and have an easy-going chemistry, Velma is more likable than she has been in some of the more recent outings and Shaggy and Scooby's friendship is charming as always. KISS are great additions and have really interesting personalities, while the villain is an appropriately spooky one. The voice work is very good, the Scooby Doo regulars (especially Matthew Lillard) are spot on and KISS are a very pleasant surprise and sound more than comfortable in their as themselves roles.All in all, not Scooby Doo at his best, but Scooby Doo! And KISS: Rock and Roll Mystery is never less than a rocking good time, and at its best it's an absolute blast. 8/10 Bethany Cox
