This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

(Not sure if my review is spoiler, but just being careful) ~ The monster mystery team keeps solving more mysteries as they try to initially live out normal lives, this time right after school is out for the Summer. Whereas they have Summer jobs with Uncle Thorny who has a golf club right next to Lake Erie, & right next to a monster legend, all due to a cloaked & wart prone old witch who foreboded & warned the first settlers, but then later became a burning steak at the stake. Now she's back & out for revenge on the townsfolk as she gathers her vengeful momentum, by recollecting her bewitching gems. I missed this movie back in 2010 but am so grateful to finally see it, (Netflix). BTW NICK PALATAS' SINGING IS THE BOOM BLAST IN THE BOMB!!! Hope to see more Scooby Doo with the whole team.

Since when did Scooby become about the gang dating each other? Ewww. Half way through, my kids asked, if it's called Scooby Doo and the Curse of the Lake Monster, how come there is hardly any Scooby in it? Seriously, half the movie was about relationships, the mystery was secondary. Not really a SPOILER, but don't read ahead if you don't want to know useless absurd plot points: Fred secretly dating Daphne but hanging out with other girls, Daphne trying to make him jealous with boys, Shaggy secretly in love with Velma, Scooby jealous of the date between Shaggy and Velma. It's just wrong. And musical numbers? They were cute, but since when does Scooby Doo have musical numbers? On the plus side, it had Marion Ross (I hope she was paid a bunch), a guy in a rubber suit, and live action versions of classic gags, like running in and out of doors in a long hallway. The actors playing Shaggy and Velma were good, but please get a blond Fred (and not a dark haired guy in a wig), it's just wrong.

the movie will be great for kids, its family friendly, but thankfully is light on the grossout gags that have become de rigeur in 'kids movies'.. Certain parts may be scary for extremely young viewers (i.e., toddler-aged) but its pretty tame otherwise.The plot follows the Mystery Inc. gang as school lets out for summer and everyone gets a job at Daphne's uncle's country club right on Lake Erie. Only, in this town, there's a legend of a frog-monster and a vengeful witch that scares the locals. Needless to say, the teen sleuths decide to take on the case- stalwart Fred, plucky Daphne, brainy Velma, fearful Shaggy and hungry Scooby..The film's screenplay could have come from the cartoons, and the film includes many of the cartoon-inspired gags like pratfalls, manic chases, characters "instantly" having a disguise on, seeing hearts when they have a crush on someone.. the full blown "light of the silvery moon" musical sequence may capture some of the "Glee"-zeitgeist of today, as well as the psychedelic-pop closing number..for the college-aged (and older) guys out there, yes, Daphne and Velma are very attractive..Lastly, Scooby-Doo "purists" who have balked at the changes to the heretofore blonde Fred and Caucasian Velma should lighten up-- it's been 40+ years since the first cartoons premiered, and the mythos were ripe for a slight reinterpretation. Enjoy with scooby-snacks at hand.

I just watched this movie. For a Cartoon Original, it wasn't that bad. Actually, pretty well done. Scooby and the gang have to solve the mystery of a Lake Monster. It had some funny parts, mainly targeted for younger kids. I have always loved the original series from the 60's. I was pretty disappointed with the other Scooby Doo movies earlier in 2003. The other Cartoon Network one from 2009 was also good. The plot, although not original, still has refreshing parts. I really advise anyone who loved the series as a child. If you only liked the original series and would hat to watch this, then don't. I thought this was a good movie for a Saturday night.
