Leave your thoughts about Scooby-Doo! Abracadabra-Doo.
| Common Sense MediaJoly HermanGood times, but scary images might spook youngest viewers. |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. Puccio...a good, formulaic Scooby cartoon, with an amusing new story and above-average graphics. |
| User ReviewKatie Si like but it had scary parts for children |
| User ReviewSimar VGreat Scooby Doo Movie, Brings back the Mystery Tone much better than the previous few ones |
| User ReviewTim MVery nice throw back film. Voices are as I remember them and the graphics are pretty decent. |
| User ReviewMatthew LThis would have been the undisputably the best Scooby-Doo movie since Zombie Island if it wasn't for Madelyn Dinkley, who was annoying and useless. The plot is engaging, and the characters well fleshed out. Some of the clues are hidden and not shown to the audience until Velma's exposition or things that were talked about at the end like they were obvious were only subtly shown, which was a little annoying. This was Matthew Lillard's first movie as Shaggy's voice, and at first it's a little jarring but you get used to it quickly. Kind of like SD: Loch Ness Monster, there aren't any real bad guys in this one, which was nice. |
| User ReviewBrody MThe Scooby Doo movies just keep getting better & better |
| User ReviewTravis HNot as good as Camp Scare but still shares a great forumla for great Scooby movies, the darker tone, great animation, and well paced comic relief is really well done. One of my favorites. |
| User ReviewRoss PEverybody's favorite canine detective is back again. The Scooby Gang still seem fresh and vibrant in their latest straight-to-DVD adventure, Scooby-Doo: Abracadabra-Doo, over 40 years after their first television appearance. The Mystery Machine is a newer model and now has a very annoying GPS, but that's about all that's changed. The script writers do seem to keep up with the times, seeing that this new adventure takes place at a magic school that is reminiscient of Harry Potter's Hogwarts. It also features a very cool gryphon that flies around snapping at everyone and causing all kinds of ruckus. The story has all the right elements you've come to expect from a Scooby-Doo movie: a big and dark house or mansion, the eccentric cast of suspects, and a creepy or foggy landscape. There's even a foreboding groundskeeper, voiced by John DiMaggio (Bender on Futurama, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Ben 10), who is constantly warning everyone of impending danger. Speaking of the cast, Matthew Lillard has picked up duties from longtime voice talent and radio DJ Kasey Kasem. Lillard does a great job, as if anyone ever had any doubt he could after playing the part in the two original live-action Scooby-Doo films. Frank Welker returns once again to voice both Scooby and Fred, thankfully. Mindy Cohn (The Facts of Life) again voices Velma. There's also some really cool guest voices, like John Stephenson (the narrator of Dragnet, Wacky Races, The Flintstones), Olivia Hack (The Brady Bunch movies, Hey Arnold! The Movie, Open Season 2), and Jeffrey Tambor (Arrested Development, The Larry Sanders Show, Hellboy 1 & 2). The animation is the same comfortable look that we've come to expect. It's pretty much the look of What's New, Scooby Doo? A mix of the classic feel of the original television show and new animation technology. Thankfully, it doesn't look like the horrific animation of Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get a Clue! I definitely enjoyed this new entry in the Scooby series. Your kids will love it and it will keep their attention. This is good and entertaining family fun. |
