Excellent, Without a doubt!!

As Good As It Gets

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Although I enjoy most Scooby Doo films, this one is not on the list. The characters have to take on new roles that don't work for them. The movie is also extremely confusing, such as when Scooby and Shaggy are driven to the graveyard. The caretaker ends up being a werewolf, but you would think they were still in the human world. Back in the real world, with Velma dramatically passing out, Fred and Daphne have to free the fairy, which isn't a very promising combination. The characters are VERY creepy and at times frightening. One particular scene was when Shaggy and Scooby encounter the three witches in the hut. They don't grab my attention, but seem too adult for the movie, which never works good with Scooby Doo. The movie also has TREMENDOUSLY dark moments, such as when the Great Krudski begins to harness his power. He belongs more in an actual horror movie than this. He is like a perverted best Friend's dad: Creepy, annoying, and scary. Although it is supposedly scary, the fantasy elements do not help the movie whatsoever. They just jumble up the plot and leave for a clunky bulk. The only positive review I have for the movie is the pumpkin. He gives me hope that this movie can revive itself. He has delightful energy and hilarious dial. Sadly, even he cannot bring the movie up from it's very deep hole.

How can any Scooby-Doo fan not take offense that the main premise of Scooby-Doo was to show children that monsters do not exist, and now they use monsters without any premise of trickery in all the latest films.Seriously, this is not the Scooby-Doo that had been made famous years ago. They have taken the name and done what they want with it.I have little problem with cartoons about monsters and the like, it is only when the premise of a great show for children is completely reversed that I take offense.I would love to see the original concept of Scooby-Doo restored so that future generations may come to enjoy Scooby-Doo the way that it was originally intended to be enjoyed. This is NOT Scooby-Doo, this is the complete opposite of Scooby-Doo!

I am 16 and I enjoyed it more than the other Scooby Doo movies. It isn't as good as Witch's Ghost though, but I also really enjoyed Zombie Island and Alien Invaders. Children will love it, and adults will love the clever Halloween jokes. The animation was way better than Shaggy and Scooby: Get a Clue, which is just atrocious in every aspect. The songs were actually really catchy, especially Goblin Boogie, which also played in the end credits, which were a delight to watch. It was a simple, but well told story, that picked up so quickly when you thought it was going to drag. As for the voice talents, they were the main reason why I liked this film as much as I did. Wayne Knight was a little over the top, but he was fine, and Casey Kasem is a sheer delight as Shaggy. James Belushi was funny as one of the goblins, and as the Goblin King, Tim Curry was both sinister and fun. I loved the twist at the end, which was typical of Scooby Doo. I also loved the fact that it was real monsters, the old formula was getting tired. My favourite bit was the Headless Horseman chasing Jack O'Lantern,(an unrecognisable Jay Leno) Shaggy and Scooby. Well recommended! 9/10. Bethany Cox

I had mixed feelings on this one 1) Having Jim Belushi, Jay Leno, Wayne Knight, Lauren Bacall, Wallace Shawn and "witches ghost" return of Tim Curry was a plus. Oh to hear Tim's laugh!!!! 2) The fairies, pumpkin, and broom picked up things when the story was dragging. 3) The story was mostly Shaggy and Scooby who couldn't carry it alone. 4) The songs were mostly forgettable. 5) the attempt to return to old style Scooby Doo was a plus 6) The story didn't really care to follow the plot and became a series of unconnected scenes. The end seemed rushed 7) The lack of Velma was deafening. 8) Daphne getting wet was unforgivable :-) At the end of the day, it was fun to watch but forgettable after a few days.
