Zoinks! Two years after a clash of egos forced Mystery Inc. to close its doors, Scooby-Doo and his clever crime-solving cohorts Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Shaggy (Matthew Lillard) and Velma (Linda Cardellini) are individually summoned to Spooky Island to investigate a series of paranormal incidents at the ultra-hip Spring Break hot spot.

Critics Consensus

Though Lillard is uncannily spot-on as Shaggy, Scooby Doo is a tired live-action update, filled with lame jokes.

Even its look is awfully cheesy and clunky, the SFX notwithstanding. Scooby Doo makes Stuart Little seem a Citizen Kane in comparison.

Too scary for most kids, too dumb for most teens.

Scooby-Doo knows when to take itself seriously and when to laugh at itself -- even if its audience isn't laughing along at every gag.

... every inch a live action cartoon with a little contemporary self-awareness and about as much substance as a Scooby snack.

The pitch-perfect casting of the members of Mystery Inc. is what makes Scooby-Doo compulsively rewatchable. The plot is serviceable, and most adults will be able to unmask the villain long before the Mystery Inc. team does, but that doesn’t matter.

If you can accept a pixellated pooch, you'll be rewarded with an entertaining, un-taxing romp that will delight fans and enthrall youngsters.

One of the most entertaining wacky movies ever. It is a great replica of scooby doo, From it's humor down to it's hilarious inside jokes! The movie is perfect for the average scooby doo viewer. Other reviews say it is cheesy, that's the fun of it. It's a movie about a talking dog! Of course it isn't going to be perfect! But it doesn't mean it's bad. Your kids will love it, and parents will chuckle. But most importantly, Even the oldest fan of scooby doo will recognize the casting as perfect, especially Shaggy!
