best movie i've ever seen.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

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

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

I watched this movie and I can say that while it is still a good Scooby-Doo cartoon it is not the greatest but it is way better than Scooby-Doo and the legend of the vampire and is an improvement from Scooby-Doo and the monster of Mexico, but it just doesn't compare to some of the old Scooby-Doo cartoons like Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island but still gives me the smile I want when I watch a Scooby-Doo cartoon. In this cartoon you are guaranteed many laughs, many good twists and turns, I found it was a bit dragged out but nothing to bad, it also has a semi-predictable ending, but you will definitely enjoy it no matter how old you are.Scooby and the gang travel to Scotland to join Daphne's cousin Shannon Blake for the very first highland games, it was going to be a great time for Scooby-Doo, Fred, Velma, Daphne, and Shaggy but they high they hear the story of the legendary Loch Ness monster and begin to get curious. During the gangs very first night while staying in Scotland Shaggy and Scooby decide to get a late night snack from the kitchen, while searching through every scary hallway they come face to face with Nessy her self and they are put in a terrifying chase that they will not soon forget. After Scooby-Doo and Shaggy are safe from the Loch Ness monster they tell the rest of the gang what happened and they are immediately on the case. Along the way they are met with classic and funny gags, lots of clever twist and turns, but the story can seem a little dragged out but still enjoyable, the ending I found was predictable but many may not find it predictable.The plot and setting once again return to the old classic Scooby-Doo where by the end we find out that there was a person behind the mystery the whole time. It still brings back the old feelings and that one of the things I like most about this cartoon.The storyline the movie follows is not bad, it gives us a good and original mystery, many good and funny gags that always gives a smile, good twists and turns apart from the ending which was kind of predictable, while the story is a little dragged out it is still entertaining and enjoyable.Once again this cartoon has all star voice cast such as: Frank Welker as Fred and Scooby-Doo, Mindy Cohn as Velma, Grey Delisle as Daphne, and Casye Kasem as Shaggy. All the voice actors do a great job at the character they are playing.Overall this is a good Scooby-Doo cartoon still not the best but definitely a step up from the previous Scooby-Doo cartoons. When the movie ended I still had the smile I started out with and I am still and always will be a huge Scooby-Doo fan. So make sure you rent or buy Scooby-Doo and the Loch Ness monster as it is not the best but it is still guaranteed entertainment and enjoyment for people of all ages.Overall rating: ******* out of ********** ***1/2 out of *****

Monster of Mexico I do agree is the weakest of the modern Scooby Doo movies, mainly because of the weak plot and how predictable it all was. Loch Ness Monster however, is a considerable improvement, with gorgeous animation, honestly Scotland looked beautiful. The music is good, and the plot is well thought out. Plus, there is some great dialogue, and the voice acting was fabulous, with Casey Kasem a consistent delight as Shaggy, and the beautiful Scottish singer Sheena Easten a pleasant surprise in a guest starring role. In fact, my only complaints were some strange accents in one or two members of the voice cast, with the exception of Easten whose accent did sound genuine, and somehow the Loch Ness Monster wasn't as well designed as it had potential to be. Overall, a solid and enjoyable Scooby Doo film. 8/10 Bethany Cox

Scooby-Doo and the Loch Ness Monster (2004) ** (out of 4) Scooby and the gang head off to Scotland to see family members when the legendary sea creature shows up. This here is a minor step up over Legend of the Vampire but it still falls short when compared to the TV show. The animation is a little better here and even the voices seem more energetic this time out. Also worth mentioning is that there are some fun supporting characters and the mystery is decent. Once again the big problem is that the film is so dumbed down that it's hard to get too involved.

One of quite a few cartoon Scooby Doo films, "Scooby Doo and the Loch Ness Monster" turns out to be entertaining, exciting, interesting, funny and also does a surprisingly good interpretation of the Highlands of Scotland. One annoying aspect of the film is the voices of many of the characters - American people trying to sound Scottish in this film are unfortunately not succeeding all that well (although some people do better Scottish accents than others).Daphne has come to the Highlands to see her cousin Shannon and the Highland games at Blake Castle. Gravely Shannon tells the gang that she believes to have seen the Loch Ness Monster. When yet more chaos arises, the Mystery Inc Gang have another mystery on their hands...Good for Scooby Doo fans and for people who want to find out more about Scotland! Enjoy "Scooby Doo and the Loch Ness Monster"! :-)
