Summary: 86 minutes of fun and music for everyone!
Review: First of all I am annoyed because I cannot find the music video that's supposed to be on this DVD. I found two of the easter egg (1 about the weather and the other about Pamela Anderson)Is the music video only viewable if you put the DVD into a computer that has a DVD-Rom drive? My computer doesn't have one, so I guess I miss out! DVD distributors should put a sticker on the front of the box to tell people that some of the content is only availed if you have a DVD-Rom drive.
I saw this movie in the theatre and thought it was even better than I imagined! The most enjoyable parts of the movie for me was Spooky Island and the music, and the deleted scenes and the wonderful Rowan Atkinson (Black ADDER, Mr. Bean)and the wonderful Matthew Lizzard and his relationship with Scooby. Spooky Island was so cool I want to go there! The music is great and compliments the movie well especially performances by the Baha Men and Outcast. The cartoon intro was fantastic, and the best scene in the movie was the deleted scene with Velma singing "Can't Take my Eyes off of you". It's a shame they didn't leave those deleted scenes in the movie, especially Velma's song. The acting was great especially Rowan, Velma, and Shaggy.
This movie is for everyone who enjoys having a good time. You don't have to be a fan of the orginal series to enjoy it. It is one of the most enjoyable movies of 2002. Other movies of 2002 I reccomend are Ice Age, Star Wars Episode 2 Attack of the Clones, Lord of the Rings 2, Elvira's Haunted Hills, and My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

Summary: The worst, I mean WORST, movie I saw last year.
Review: For SCOOBY DOO purists, and I'd hate to think that such a creature exists or, worse, that I'm one of them, this nightmare of a film contained little humor, little joy, little intrigue and little mystery. This was just out-and-out awful.Matthew Lillard's voice sounded a lot like Casey Kasem's take on Shaggy from the TV series. Oh, and the ending made a villain out of a character everyone hated anyway. There, those are my only compliments. Scooby's annoying. Velma's nothing like herself. The ghosts are real ... and the ghosts and plot are too scary for kids. Fred is more of a one-dimensional figure now than he was when he was a cartoon. Daphne's characterization, not that they had much to build from since these aren't really "characters" in the sense that they ever had history or personality, is almost insulting, for they turn her into a really dim damsel-in-distress archetype. (Sarah Michelle Gellar deserves much, much better - and routinely gets better material when she's on BUFFY.) It's not funny. The soundtrack's even annoying. It's not good for kids. It doesn't look good for a movie. And it doesn't make sense. It, in fact, makes less sense than even the most far-fetched of mysteries on the old TV show. This is awful, awful, awful. Avoid it.

Summary: Total Ludicrous!
Review: This was a complete waste of my life! 2 hours gone right off the map! Did the Mystery Inc. people suddenly got HYPINOTIZED OR BEANED?? I saw it and immediatly didn't know what to say. NOW I THINK IT'S A WASTE OF BEAUTIFUL TIME! First of all Warner Bros. just grabbed a bunch of NON-TALENTED ACTORS AND JUST WROTE A COMPLETelY BORING AND CONFUSING SCRIPT AND WE ALL HEAR SCRAPPY CALLING THE BAND OF DETECTIVES SONS OF YOU KNOW WHAT! AND LASTLY THEY TOOK A DUMB DIRECTOR AND CREATED THE WORST MOVIE OF THE MILLENIUM! P.U!

Summary: OMG~~! A Disgrace~~!
Review: One of the worse movie I have ever watched in my entire life. There is no plot, and the ending is absolutely horrible. It's like another scary movie! I mean come on! Surely the procuders had no idea what he/she wanted to do with the movie, and the story writer had no clue what he/she is writing. I will give some credit to the movie for its effects; it's not bad, but if you want to see a "real" movie, this is NOT it! Trust me on this one. Unless you have kids who loves scooby, then this would be a buy that you can bare, or else, it will be a waste of you precious bill.

Summary: What do you call a comedy without the humor? "Scooby Doo"
Review: I lost interest in this movie after trying my best to stay attentive in the first half hour (I kept asking the person I was watching it with to tell me when the movie gets funny). It wasn't funny at all and didn't even completely make sense: where exactly did the monsters come from? And are we really supposed to believe that Scrappy Doo would go to that length for revenge? The plot, if you can call it that, was a pitiful rip off of "Invasion Of The Body Snatchers". Sometimes when a movie isn't funny, you can tell where the jokes are, but you don't laugh at them. With Scooby Doo, I had a hard time even telling what I was supposed to be laughing at: that's how bad the humor was. The plot was stupid and, aside from Matthew Lillard, who did a dead-on Shaggy, the characters were completely uninteresting. At 85 minutes it still felt like it went on way too long.
This movie gets one star only because that was the lowest rating possible. Entertainment for 5 year olds or the recently lobotomized.

Summary: TOO violent and frightening
Review: I assumed that this movie would be on the same line as the Saturday morning cartoon series. BOY! was I wrong. This movie is entirely too violent for children under 12 or 13 and the demon images are extremely frightening. I don't think this is an appropriate movie for children under young teens. However, it appears in the search under movies for ages 3-6!! My son will never see this movie in our home. I am not prudish about movies for children, but this is just far too violent, and the humor too distasteful for kids of any age. Stay away from this one!!

Summary: Scooby-Doo transformation from cartoon to live-acting a bust
Review: Normally I stick to the manga and japanese anime section of amazon.com, but I felt I had to write a review for this movie. Basically, I thought this movie was horrible. Anyone who did not go to see this movie for its actors will be surely disappointed. The plot was nonexistent, the acting was severely lacking, and the many special effects were clearly fake. My advice: don't get this movie until you've seen it beforehand and you know whether it's worth your money. The transition from cartoon to live acting was a total bust. Cartoon gags, such as slipping on bananna peels, etc, are all very well and good when drawn with pencil and paper, but when they are performed by living actors, what was formerly funny is now just plain stupid. I think that they should have either stuck with cartoons, or left the outrageous gags out of the movie. It was an idea that could have worked, but the makers of this film completely failed in their endeavour. Not to mention the cast. WB picked a stellar and well-known cast, but this movie is just... not their best performance.

Summary: My Kids Love It!
Review: My 3 and 5 year old boys love this movie. I liked it. Since this is a children's movie, I asked my 5 year old to tell me what he liked. He said it was funny, scary and gross (because of the fart scene between Shaggy and Scooby) in a funny kind of way. Will they watch it again? They still ask to watch it about twice a week...so what do you think? I think your young ones will enjoy this movie.

Summary: Dirt-Teen Ghosts
Review: Beyond the potty jokes, the stale lines, and uninteligible plot, there's a real problem beneath the live action Scooby-Doo" which initially (with a cleverly put-together cast) promised to be the Boo's franchise flagship. Instead, like with many of Hollywood's so-called live action blockbusters (the fourth Batman Installment, the live action 101 Dalmatians, Flintstones,etc.), there seems to be a no respect for the entended audience- be they children, teenagers, or adults. Instead, the scripts fall over themselves to be edgy, filled with sexual innuendos, and mostly special effects driven. This "Boo' may or may not spawn sequels but if it does, let's hope Warner Brothers hires better scriptwriters but keeps the cast. They alone have the chemisty (along with computer-generated Scoob)to at least make the film almost watchable. You want a real Scooby snack? Try one of the feature-length cartoons that Warner Brothers made in the last decade like "Cyber Ghost", "Witches", or "Alien Invaders".
