5/10
Cute and charming Scooby Doo movie
28 September 2012
I was something of a Scooby Doo fan when I was younger, and seeing this movie recently brought back some good childhood memories. This movie and "Scooby Doo and the reluctant werewolf" were my favourite animated movies when I was a little kid. Now , of course I look at it differently , but I still have got a soft spot for it in my heart.

This was made after the "13 Ghosts" series, so Fred, Velma and Daphne are not in it. Shaggy wears a red shirt and blue pants and he has a red Mystery Machine. This might be a problem for the hardcore fans , but not for me. The story reminds me kind of a mix between "Police academy" and "The Addams family" . It's quite refreshing to see Scooby,Shaggy and Scrappy with REAL monsters , not some costumed villains. Matches, the "pet" dragon of the boarding school, is really great . The other characters are also catchy and very likable . Our heroes at first are scared of the girls, but later Shaggy and Scooby actually warm up to the girls.

This movie lacks sense sometimes - private school with only five girls ,the boys don't seem to notice or mind that girls are ghouls , during the volleyball match the players break all the rules. Still , the movie is charming , the humour is nice , characters likable and the voice-acting is fantastic.

I give it 5/10.
