What Parents Need to Know
About Scooby-Doo
Parents need to know that this movie has more intense, scary special effects than you'll find in the cartoon Scooby-Doo features. The characters are in frequent peril, though no one gets hurt. There is some drug humor (as "Pass the Dutchie" plays on the soundtrack, what appears to be marijuana smoke turns out to be something else) and some vulgar jokes and graphic bathroom humor. The girls wear very skimpy clothes.

i'm now seing the movie i wrote what i saw :) PARENTS READ it'll HELP
daphne looks too s*xy to grumpy different from the usual daphne... fred is egoist and also very different... disappointing... Daphne says at the beginning "im having a "wedgie" (underwear stuck inside her) wearing visible tight underwear "it dosent stop touching my... (and dosen't continue) word meant here is "A*S" talking about the ghost carrying her. Fred says "I'm a man of substance; dork chicks like you turn me on, too" fred is a womanizer and shaggy too farting and burping competition (huge extended one) between shaggy and scooby Shaggy says marry jane is his favorite name and is like over happy to hear that the girl he likes is named like this mary jane = marijuana Scrappy when saying "puppy power" at the same time pisses on Daphne in a kind of iffy disturbing disgusting way She then says "oh god he's peeing on me !!" and he says "ooww" in a happy proud way,,,, Fred says : no urinating on daphne fred says to scooby " when u cleaned ur beans..." i don't know what comes to the mind in this phrase but it dosn't seem nice.. "ur mom eats cat poop" said twice by shaggy and scooby Fred says " hey i could look at myself naked" when possessing daphne's body and then has a peak on his/her breasts then he starts touching himself including breasts and daphne in fred's body screams to "stop" touching her "Fred keeps touching me" again.. a guy trying to get shaggy shaggy accidently hits him on his genital area, the reaction of the man is explicit "kicking b*tt" + iffy clothing and some drinking + zombies and souls monsters real ones not masked people i won't let my 10 year old sister watch this useless movie...

It seems like other raters including CommonSense Media didn't actually watch the movie! I only saw the last half, maybe less, and it was awful. It was scary and violent for young children, but to me that wasn't the worst part. Many girls were dressed in very skimpy clothes (extremely short shorts, lots of cleavage showing, etc.). After reading the CommonSense Media rating, I let my 8-year-old daughter watch the movie with her father because she likes Scooby-Doo. As only one other rater seemed to notice, there was a part where Fred and Daphne's bodies were switched. Fred, inside Daphne's body, said very happily/sexily: "Hey, I can look at myself naked!" while he (she) looked down and smiled at Daphne's breasts/cleavage. Then Daphne, in Fred's body, watched Fred (in her body) touch himself and said "get your hands off me!" but Fred was very disrespectful, wouldn't listen to her and kept touching her body (which he was in). Later she said "Fred keeps touching me!" There was also one subtle reference to drugs/being high that I noticed, when Fred's character says to Shaggy (in a paranoid voice like someone who is high and hallucinating), "Listen Man, someone must've spiked my root beer last night!" Then he assumes it's a bad trip and he's high and asks Shaggy to help him come down from his drug high he thinks he's on: "Talk me down, man, talk me down"!

It's okay
Not a great film, but it did manage to make me laugh. WHY DID SCRAPPY HAVE TO BE THE VILLAIN!? A) He's an annoying character and B) He's not supposed to be evil. Where did the writers get this idea that Scrappy's arch-nemesis is Scooby? I thought Scooby was his hero. Now to mention something I'm amazed Commonsense missed as the film put a lot of emphasis on it during certain aspects: Sexual jokes involving Daphne and Fred. In one scene, Fred ends up in Daphne's body and grins saying "I can see myself naked" and there's constant scenes in which Daphne keeps telling Fred to "stop touching her". Seriously, CS, how do you not notice this stuff?

e.g. Perfect for older kids, but not for tweens
i love this movie but there is some stuff that children can not see when they use some bad words like when freddie prinze is singing this "yo yo the b***ch is like what and i said later on" and especially when they fart esp. shaggy and scooby doo and there is a kissing scene in the end

Kids will love this
I wouldn't be too worried about this scaring your kids. When I was about 9 I was absolutely obsessed with scooby doo, and I LOVED this movie. I remember actually being upset that it wasn't scarier. I pored over the deleted scenes that they had to take out to keep the movie at a PG level. I don't think many teens will like this, but if your kids love scooby doo, definitely give this a try.

its not that scary
I dont think this movie is that scary, or maybe its my kids? They find scooby doo hilarious, and mostly because they love the dog itself.... in this movie he dances and is a big goof ball as usual, which the kids love. My kids don't tend to be scared of much though, and we talk a lot about how movies are made and that they are not real and we often watch "the making of" part of the dvd. My kids have a very realistic view of what is fantasy and what is real... so as with any movie, just talk about it with your kids.

This was like Scooby Doo for teens...
This is not Scooby Doo. Nothing like him. I liked the movie because I was like 7, but now I dont really. I think they should have done a little better, and made it more kid friendly.

Scooby-Don't.
Scooby-Doo. I remember that show. It was an entertaining, and for the most part, wholesome experience every time I viewed it. Strange though, I don't remember Scooby-Doo being so unbelieveably shallow, with a plot so simple anyone could see the ending from a mile away. Eh, at least Shaggy is depicted accuately.
