Scooby - Doo! Frankencreepy / Scooby-Doo! Moon Monster Madness / Scooby-Doo! Chill Out (Triple Feature) (DVD)

I wasn't sure what to expect since the quality of Scooby-Doo direct-to-DVD releases can vary pretty widely. On "family movie night" my kids (4 and 7) really wanted to rent this and I reluctantly (due to the price) agreed. I actually enjoyed watching it quite a bit (which, as we all know, isn't always the case with kids' movies). This definitely tweaks the standard Scooby format a bit and it seemed like a breath of fresh air in a semi-stale franchise to me. It's high-tech and opens with Daphne doing a video webcast in which the rest of the gang interrupts. The opening credit sequence is new and has a CSI-ish vibe to it. The animation is darker but on-par with other recent favorites such as Legend of the Phantosaur. The mystery is actually legitimate and isn't obvious from the start (like Scooby plots are prone to being). There is enough danger and spookiness to keep kids entertained but nothing too scary or violent. There is also enough slapstick humor to add levity to every scene. If you are a family of Scooby fans, you will enjoy this movie. <Semi-Spoiler Alert>I was worried about it promoting a negative body image for women based on another review about Daphne being turned in to a "size 8" and her freaking out about it. I actually have to defend the writers here because Daphne realized she was being superficial throughout that story arc, it added to the story in a meaningful way (it allows her to evade iron face) and the most importantly: Fred didn't notice/care and said that she "always looked good to him". I would say it was more about acceptance and not being superficial than anything.</Semi-Spoiler Alert>

My kids have enjoyed all of these 'newer' Scooby Doo movies which is why I bought this one for them. They enjoyed the movie, found it funny, and have asked to watch it again and again. Yes there is a point where Daphne freaks out at becoming a size 8 but the point of the story is that the gang does not lose what they really treasure - each other. My kids understood this and did not get hung up on Daphne's vanity. I enjoyed the classic Scooby Doo as a child. This movie brings back some of the bad guys from that series - amazing how no one ages. I would say grab a cup of coffee and sit down and enjoy a silly movie with your kids. I gave it 5 stars based on everyone's reactions and enjoyment of the story.

I’m a big fan of Scooby anyway but this one is super fun and I think most fans will enjoy the call outs to their past series in this movie.

Love these Scooby-Doo movies so cute and funny for all. Great Product. Great purchase.

My son (pre-school age) loves Scooby and the gang, so adding this to our video library is something that we've been looking to do for a while. My son loves how Scooby and Shaggy can overcome their fear and that the Mystery Gang always solves the mystery. While he watched I would ask him questions as to what he thinks the gang is doing and he would tell me his ideas. When I would ask why they would look for clues, who they are helping, and what they are trying to solve, he can tell me without any problems exactly what's been going on. Sometimes I ask what he would think the gang would do if they didn't find the clue and how he thinks the gang could solve the mystery. This would bring us to a whole what if's scenarios and turn it into a critical thinking exercise. The whole time we are doing this, my son just thinks we're trying to make up new mysteries for the gang to solve.

Fine

My kids are hooked on all things Scooby. If you have a Scooby fan in your house this is a great addition to your collection. As with all Scooby Doo shows, there is no foul language or any reason to be concerned with younger viewers. The good guys always win and the bad guys are always brought to justice (drat you pesky kids!). It is a great movie to have in the car and throw on during long drives to keep the kids quiet. It is one of those movies that all the kids agree to watch.

We all enjoy watching Scooby Doo and it will be watched over and over again.

loved it

Great scooby doo film

perfect ! parfait !

Like scooby doo movies

Ce long métrage est un vrai régal, une histoire originale et une enquête des plus sympathique, un petit clin d’œil au vielle série Scooby-Doo des année 60. Pour ce qui est des caractéristiques du DVD nous avons bien le menu et le dessin animé en français avec le doublage habituel que nous connaissons bien. Le DVD est zone 2 et 4 donc aucun soucis pour nos lecteur. DVD reçu très rapidement en quelques jours seulement ! C'est parfait !
