Scooby Doo Comes to Life!!!
Added 10/2/2009
The classic cartoon finally gets a live-action film! Everybody was perfect as each character. Two years after Mystery Inc. split up, they are all called back to duty when Emile Mondavarious, the owner of an amusement park called Spooky Island needs their help to solve a mystery. Somebody is taking the souls of the visitors and replacing them with monsters. I highly recommend SCOOBY-DOO!!!

GREAT MOVIE!!
Added 6/3/2009
This movie totally rocks! I've always loved Scooby-Doo since i was a kid (I'm 21 now) and I remembered watching the original Scooby-Doo Where Are You episodes, The Scooby-Doo movies, The Scooby and Scrappy-Doo show, A Pup Named Scooby Doo (which I absolutely loved!) and the recent animated movies. Oh, plus What's New Scooby Doo! I remember, when I first heard of the release of this movie in 2002, I was really excited! One of everyone's favorite cartoon been brought to life! I was even more excited to hear that Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. would be the leads in the movie as Daphne and Fred. Their previous movies were mostly really cool, and neither of them are bad on the eye (they're both GORGEOUS!). When I saw the movie, I was blown away! This movie was PERFECT! Really fun and funny, action-packed, filled with jokes and also pretty scary. That was even more than I really expected. WAY MORE!
The CGI Scooby was top-notch (making him look like a real dog, making him cartoony and funny at the same time and leaving him intact as the actual cartoon must've been really hard, BUT THEY PULLED IT OFF 100%
The characters, Shaggy, Daphne, Fred and Velma, played by Matthew Lillard, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Freddie Prinze Jr. and Linda Cardellini were dead-on their cartoon counterparts. To me, this cast was perfect, they really felt like a group of friends (well, Sarah and Freddie were engaged during this [and they have such chemistry!] and Matthew had appeared with Freddie in other flicks and are really good friends). I think this cast actually made me like the characters even more. Matthew Lillard IS Shaggy, no questions. Linda Cardellini IS Velma (and she even made her quite sexy) Freddie Prinze Jr. IS SO Fred (quite funny performance by the way). But Sarah Michelle Gellar completely blowed me away! She made Daphne so much better than the actual cartoon character. That ain't an easy feat. I liked how she gave Daphne that edge and spunk, while still looking completely stunning in 6'' inch high pink go-go boots.
Everything in this movie was REALLY WELL MADE. The CGI effects, the sets (HUGE and IMPRESSIVE), the costumes (I LOVE how they made Mystery Inc. look, they seemed cooler, more modern, but still retaining their cartoonish charm...
I really can't say enough of this movie! I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT IT! I saw it in theaters, bought it on VHS, then DVD, seen it like 5+ times and still love it! I can't wait to own it on Blu-Ray and see how it looks!
This movie has everything= Cartoon mega-hit brought to life even better than the original, FUNNY, WITTY, COLORFUL, ACTION-PACKED, GREAT CHARACTERS and PERSONALIZATION, HORROR and so MUCH MORE!! That's SCOOBY DOO! Gotta love it!

Scooby-Doo on Blu-ray
Added 4/3/2009
First and for most I've been a Scooby-Doo fan since I was young. Then seeing it come to a live action movie was something serious. But to review the Blu-ray the quality of the movie is great (9/10) but the only complaint I have is that none of the Special Features aren't in High Definition. But besides that it's cool.

Waste of celluloid
Added 1/6/2009
If I could give this movie zero stars I would! Thank God somebody gave this to us. Those of you who have given it five stars must have been payed to do so. While enduring the torture of watching this crap-fest I was left pondering several points. First, did someone loose a bet? Second, did the director cash in every favor he was owed? And lastly how did they manage to make Freddy Prinzes hair look blonde instead of orange? Parents beware! This movie is comprized mainly with toilet humor. Do not be suprized when (after the umpteenth viewing) you hear your child shout to their sibling, "No, your mom eats cat poop!" Blessedly, mine have lost interest and now watch better things (with a little help from me!).
