In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

The movie is not good, but I will give it credit that it improves a bit in the last half, but never to the point where it is really good. Daphne is suddenly half white and half black in this movie and has either a bad dye job, or a bad wig, because the hair does not look close to real. The Velma in the Cartoon Network live action movies is part Japanese, so a mixed-race cast member can work, but it feels forced in this movie. It was as if someone said, "Let us make it more diverse by shoving a mixed-race character into the script with a hammer." The dialog seems to have been written by an old fogey who put down what they think high school kids would say. The plot, especially at the start of the movie, is bad; now, Scooby-Doo is not known for great plots, but this is makes the others seem like Shakespeare. The special effects were really cheap sitcom quality. The action is set in High School, but is supposed to be before they meet Fred, Shaggy, and Scooby-Doo; however, the show should have been set earlier. If one includes A Pup Named Scooby-Doo the movie becomes impossible, but ignoring that show, it should have been set in Junior High School to fit with the rest of the series. The actors seem to be trying to work with the script's limitations. The plot is predictable, I had all but one element figured out in the first few minutes. There is a scene dealing with Daphne and Velma which actually got a laugh out of me, not from them, but from another character. The idea had potential, the plot could have worked, and the acting could have worked if the script had been better.

I sat down to watch this movie with my 8 year old son, whom is a big fan of Scooby Doo and the Mystery Gang.Let's just say that he left after about 15 minutes of suffering through the torture method that is known as "Daphne & Velma", while I managed to endure 45 minutes of this garbage.Right, well there was so many things wrong with this.First, the movie was lacking a proper storyline and seemed like director Suzi Yoonessi was given no limitations and just put together a series of random segments here and there. Sarah Jeffery, playing Daphne, looked nothing like the cartoon character in any way, except for their hair color, and it didn't help that she was stumbling through what were supposed to pass as being acting. Sarah Gilman, playing Velma, fared little better in the acting department, but at least they made her look very much like the cartoon character.The characters in the movie were one-dimensional cardboard cut out figures that offered absolutely nothing to the storyline. And they were so irrelevant that you didn't even bother about them in any way."Daphne & Velma" was also hindered by an abysmal set of dialogue. Wow, it was such a pain to listen to.According to the synopsis, then this movie was supposed to take place before the gang all got together to form the Mystery Gang. Right, well plausible enough. But no! Then the movie should be set in the time according to prior to the first Scooby Doo episode, which it clearly was not if you look at all the gadgets and technology in the movie. That was just a downright horrible flaw to the movie. Sure, they attempted to appeal to the audience today, but good luck getting the youngsters to raise their heads from their phones and tablets long enough to get any interest in this derailed movie project.This movie was a swing and an atrocious miss. Not going to bother coming back to this. In fact, I will pretend I never saw those God awful 44 minutes and not let it taint my view on the legacy of Scooby Doo and the Mystery Gang.

Good god this was awful to sit through. I had five minutes left of the movie and I turned it off. I felt like I should have set fire to the $13 I paid for this. Watched it barely once and I will never again. Very unfunny movie. Cheap looking movie. Both girls are terrible at acting and Velma is very ugly to look at. AVOID THIS MOVIE!

This is amazing, I love it. But maybe next time Scooby Doo must be invited.
