Jesus Christ. I thought 2020 couldn't get any worse but it just did.
If I could give this movie 0 stars I would.
This absolutely butchered the original Scooby Doo movies for me. After being a life long fan that grew up watching it, I was so excited to introduce my little brother to it.
After a week of watching the originals, being stuck in quarantine for two months and spending an hour making homemade scooby snacks, We. Were. Hyped.
But oh my god do I regret it. It was a bigger disappointment than buying a prom dress from China.
The plot made no sense. There was literally no mystery. There was giant pterodactyl dung.
One moment there are evil bowling pins then there's a superhero with daddy issues, then there's a knock-off Despicable Me villain and imitation minions, then there's a cave man with dinosaurs, then there's a abandoned park in Romania, then there's Alexander the Great with a dog and then there's a three headed ghost dog and then there's a chamber of gold...
After about 40 minutes of this HORRIBLE PLOT, cliche subplots, various references to seem woke and the most pathetic dick joke I've ever heard in my life, my brother couldn't even follow the plot and lost interest.
Honesty this reboot felt like a desperate attempt to reintroduce the Mystery gang to a new generation. In their effort to grasp commercial success and popularity, the movie lost it's identity (as in it lacked what made Scooby Doo popular).
In the end, I only have three questions;
1. Who wrote this?
2. Who approved it?
3. Who tf gave it 5 stars?
Honestly save your money. You couldn't even PAY ME 30 dollars to watch it again.
Again, I can't stress this enough. I would rather saw off my own foot than watch this again. Don't do it if you value your time.
Kudos to the animators though that was pretty good.
