Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Crystal Land (ShadowGal) I've heard people dissing this movie, but I don't agree. I loved this movie as a child, and even now (I'm 19) I still enjoy it. Sure, the whole gang isn't there, but that's fine. I was never a hardcore fan of the series, but this movie is fabulous. The "little ghouls" are adorable and lots of fun. Matches, the "pet" dragon of the boarding school, is really great, and the friendship he develops with Scrappy is nice to see. The beginning to the movie is actually really funny, and the exercise scene (don't ask, you'll just have to see it yourself!) that follows soon after always puts a smile on my face. It all starts as a misunderstanding that results in Shaggy and Scooby meeting monsters they (gasp!) aren't afraid of... and, of course, some new villains that *are* quite scary. All in all, this is a really entertaining watch. I love it, and gave it an 8 out of 10.
las_walteras My older sister and I grew up with this movie I love it. I've seen it now and I admit it's bit lame but I love it. I also love the Scooby Doo movie where Shaggy turns into a wolf. If you grew up watching these movies you just have to love them.
TheMan3051 Most likely inspired by the episode from "New Scobby-Doo Movies" where Tim Conway guest stared and Shag and Scoob were the "worlds greatest athletes." This TV movie released in 1988 is another bad `80s Scobby cartoon. The whole concept is lame and a horrible transition from chasing 13 ghosts to teaching a group of female ghouls.1(*)out of 4(****)stars
scotthellings You know what this movie needs? MORE bad puns!! Yes, more!Seriously, the depth of every character is simply that they say one word that somehow relates to who or what they are. Now, I don't expect much in the way of characters for a kids cartoon, but come on. Seriously, I think a group of eight year old children could have produced a better script.We have one character who is a young vampire and, as such, can turn into a bat. So, all her lines revolve around her making a pun with bat. Such as "that is a BAT idea!" And yes, even "I shall do my bat." Which, to me, doesn't even work. Bat and best don't even begin to rhyme.And there is the young mummy who only ever talks of her "mummy" (GET IT? LIKE HER MOM! OH THE COMEDY! HAHAHAHAHAHA! Ugh). However, later on when we get to meet all the children (the students in said "Ghoul School") we do not meet her "mummy," but rather her father. What?And in the meantime, we see Shaggy and Scooby occasionally chipping in a line here or there and the obligatory eating and getting scared/running away sequences. There is one such sequence where they decide to run away from the fathers of the children and, all of a sudden, the all-too annoying Scrappy Doo makes an appearance. You don't see him for like fifteen minutes, without explanation, and suddenly he literally just jumps into the running away scene for no particular reason.And don't even get me started on the volleyball scene and the lack of rules (okay, okay, little kids, whom this cartoon was intended, won't understand anyway, but it was SO bad that the producers HAD to know they were destroying any semblance of the game's rules). And yes, we also have a character that is a combination of a bat and a spider. And his name? Spiderbat, of course.Yes, this will probably appeal to some children, but even I didn't enjoy it when it was out. Even at the tender age of nine I could tell this was garbage and having just watched it again on television, I can plainly see why. Avoid this at all costs. It will make you "batty!"
