Scooby Doo: Curse of the Lake Monster [DVD] [2011]

Great

It was good

Fun adventure.

One needs some simple fun as they get older and this one doesnt disappoint. I like these live action Scooby-Doos and was sad they didnt continue them on the large screen. The actors in these look like they are having fun. Buy it, watch it with kids, cant go wrong. :)

Loved it

In Scooby Doo curse of the lake monster the original cast of Scooby Doo the mystery begins return for the second film in the series.

If you are a Scooby Doo fan, you have to watch this. But it definitely isnt the best and its not the same as the cartoon series of course. But I was content with it and it was entertaining. I do think they should have focused more on Scooby and the mystery rather than the gang and their relationship problems. I still like the humor though. This particular mystery though I didnt really like. I like the case they worked on in the first movie more. Anyways, its not the best but still something you should watch if youre a Scooby fan.

This movie as well as its predecessor are not meant to lead into the first two live action films.. Or even the original cartoon.. It takes place in modern time, with modern technology, Velmas Asian, and Freds brunette (though there is a joke in this movie where he puts on a blonde wig as a disguise and likes the look) so you have to look at it as a new vision, a reinventing of the scooby brand for live action, and every scooby fan will be happy. So stop complaining about character changes, they didnt change their personalities at all. And the relationship stuff did take over too much of the plot, but they poke fun of that at the end when shaggy and Velma kiss and they agree theres no chemistry (which I very much appreciated, their relationship in the latest series Mystery Inc was just awkward as it was here - only here its poked fun at essentially) and even Fred and daphne start dating here but mutually agree theyre better staying friends. Everything was handled well. Scooby was missing from many scenes, he mustve been too expensive to animate, and I admit it was distracting. And the ending was ruined by the fast forward at the beginning of the film all but giving it away. But fans need to get over Velma being Asian since with her big glasses its not at all distracting and she brings the character to life, same goes for this dark haired Freddy - come on, its always implied he bleached his hair, his eyebrows are always black! Overall, the first film was better, as were the original two, but this was made for TV and its just as much a new vision as it is a tribute and homage to the original cartoon.
