Thehibikiew Not even bad in a good way

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

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.

generationofswine Like the last live action Scooby Doo, this one realized what it was. That is to say it knew that it was a kids live action movie and not a cartoon. It realized that it didn't have to be a cartoon to be Scooby Doo and, again, the film benefited from that.The only real sore spot was the music. Scooby Doo has music as a big part of every movie and most of the individual episodes in each of the respective shows...but the music was handled differently.In this case it was handled a little too much like the cartoons to work in a live action rendition that knew it didn't need to try to be a cartoon.Had they handled it more like American Graffiti, it would have worked better and had more of a place. Instead, it felt slightly removed.Otherwise, you have another Scooby Doo movie that succeeds where the first two failed. It's almost a shame these more grounded movies weren't released into the theaters or hyped as much as the first two, the world would have a more positive view of live action Scooby movies

Robert Question to the filmmakers first. Did you guys intend on taking a classic that the world has grown up with, and making a plot that involves a ghost instead of a person in a mask, having scooby be violent, pushing the idea of girlfriends WAY too much, and worse of all, having shaggy IN LOVE with Velma? Seriously? And what was with the whole dance stuff at the end? Funny, but what was the point? At any rate, here's another attempt to make a live action film with special effects and base it on classics. Only to change around things and make it completely wrong. Shaggy and Velma? Seriously? The joke with Fred and Daff is just that, a joke people have created. DON'T take a joke and make it become part of the plot. And having scooby become RUDE and mean and cruel is WRONG.But there is some stars I've giving this movie. In this case, at least they tried. There was no swearing to my knowledge. The gang DID solve a mystery. But in the end, this IS cartoon network in 2010, so I'm not surprised it isn't as good as it could have been.

andrew-larrivy I am a Scooby Doo lifer. I am only 21 years old but from the day I started watching television as a young pup I was always watching Scooby Doo. While I enjoyed both Scooby Doo 1 and Scooby Doo 2 and thought they portrayed the characters almost to perfection I think this Scooby and the 1 before are a disgrace to Scooby Doo himself.. Since when did Scooby become about dating and since when did the gang start dating one another?? Shaggy and Velma? I mean come on thats a dang joke! This movie was a shameful and even disgraceful excuse for a Scooby movie and Scoob wasn't even in half the dang movie! I highly recommend not even wasting your money or your time.

exchronos SPOILERS!! For one, the point of any episode or film in the Scooby-Doo franchise is to figure out who the masked villain is before the gang does. The best episodes and movies really build up multiple suspects or makes it hard to figure out who the villain really is.Approximately one hour into this film I had it all figured out. That's not good. The plot was way too easy to decipher, even without reading any online spoilers.Why is this not really a Scooby-Doo movie? For one there is not a masked villain and the supernatural aspect is indeed real.Of course, "Mystery Begins" had real ghosts and real magic, but it was easy to dismiss this as a fluke. The first two live action films portrayed real monsters but those films happened much later in their careers, whereas if they battle real monsters and ghosts in the prequels, why is it so hard for them to believe in such things later on? Continuity is completely thrown out.This film could be called "Scooby-Doo Meets The Exorcist And The Frog People Invade Lake Erie".Though I must admit that they handled the love story between Shaggy and Velma 200 times better than what atrocities they've been committing in "Mystery Incorporated".I gave this a 5 because it was alright, but I had hoped for a lot better. They should've watched every sea creature episode of Scooby-Doo before attempting a film in that vein, and they really need to keep in the spirit of classic Scooby-Doo and stop this real supernatural aspect stuff. They're just having the gang encounter real supernatural phenomena way too early in their careers. They would've been better off adapting an original episode to live action instead.
