hyped garbage

Best movie ever!

Absolutely Fantastic

A different way of telling a story

Scooby and the gang are invited to Veracruz, Mexico, by Fred's pen friend to celebrate a local tradition. As usual, they encounter a big, scary monster, El Chupacabra, who scares of all tourists and threatens the Otero's business. So once again, they must investigate and finally elucidate the mystery to help their new friends in need.It's a Scooby Doo movie (like a normal episode, only longer) which manages to be funny, entertaining, quite complex featuring a classic Scooby Doo plot. I enjoyed it a lot, especially it's musical sequences which bring special moments to a new level. It's a good movie but nothing groundbreaking. Enjoy it Scooby Doo fans!

The opening song was worth it. It really was. Actually, the music as a whole was worth it.And some of the jokes were fully even if one or two of them may have bordered on blatant stereotypes, but in a harmless way.It starts off strong. It starts off like an old episode of Scooby Doo...it just sort of ends with a "meh." In fact, what kills it is that one can walk away and forget how it ended by the time you get done using the bathroom.But the first half is memorable and the songs are catchy, so it's a wash.

Scooby-Doo and the Monster of Mexico (2003)** 1/2 (out of 4)Scooby and the gang get an invitation to come see a friend in Mexico for the Day of the Dead festivities but as soon as they arrive there they learn a Bigfoot like monster is haunting the people. Soon the Mystery Machine is out trying to determine who is trying to scare people off.This entry in the movies of Scooby-Doo isn't nearly as bad as its reputation makes it out to be. While the film certainly isn't among the best movies from the franchise, it's at least entertaining, colorful and offers up a pretty good monster and a nice little twist at the end. I will say that the only disappointing thing is that there wasn't more comedy because many of the comic bits fall flat.With that said, I really enjoyed the look of the Bigfoot monster as well as the myth surrounding it. I thought visually the monster looked extremely good and it was certainly entertaining enough to keep you caught up in the story. The animation, as you'd expect, was very good as well as the vocal performances. I really enjoyed the colorful nature to the animation but I will say it's a shame that the Day of the Dead ceremony wasn't used more. Still, if you're a fan of the series then you should enjoy this one.

This movie had a lot going for it. The voice cast, sound effects and smoother animation felt more like the original Scooby Doo and I appreciated the classic feel. I really liked that Scott Innes was not voicing Shaggy. Velma is good for relating some good Mexican history. The behind-the-scenes, blooper reel and cast commentary on the DVD are great! There were definitely parts where the plot was interesting and a lot of vintage Shaggy/Scooby comedy that made us all laugh.That being said, the plot didn't hold together very well for me. Somewhere in the middle, things get a little TOO confusing and far-fetched, even for Scooby. The story seems to slow down and then jump ahead making the movie lurch along awkwardly. Daphne's voice seems slow and... old! The dialog really dragged in parts. The extra characters didn't have much personality or add interest to the movie, they were just... there.Overall the movie was OK and my kids enjoy it now and then. Not the greatest... but pretty good.
