Scooby-Doo y el monstruo del Lago Ness

My son Adam (5 years old) is a big Scooby Doo fan. He like this film a lot. He particularly liked when the Loch Ness monster tried to attack Shaggy and Scooby. The vote score is his choice and reflects his love of the characters.

Having seen the "Vampire Rock" film first, this, not surprisingly, was very similar as they repeat a well worn basic plot in a different setting.

Few adults will come across this without having their own memories of the TV cartoon series and even fewer will watch it without children. You either like this or love it. I loved Scooby Doo for half an hour as a kid, I am happy my son loves it, I can just about put up with it now.

Monster of Mexico I do agree is the weakest of the modern Scooby Doo movies, mainly because of the weak plot and how predictable it all was. Loch Ness Monster however, is a considerable improvement, with gorgeous animation, honestly Scotland looked beautiful. The music is good, and the plot is well thought out. Plus, there is some great dialogue, and the voice acting was fabulous, with Casey Kasem a consistent delight as Shaggy, and the beautiful Scottish singer Sheena Easten a pleasant surprise in a guest starring role. In fact, my only complaints were some strange accents in one or two members of the voice cast, with the exception of Easten whose accent did sound genuine, and somehow the Loch Ness Monster wasn't as well designed as it had potential to be. Overall, a solid and enjoyable Scooby Doo film. 8/10 Bethany Cox

good job.that's how i would describe this animated Scooby-Doo adventure.this is so far the best of the animated Scooby movies i have seen.i liked the story.i thought it had some depth to to it.the movie is also well paced.it doesn't get boring for a minute.it also has an interesting group of characters(besides Scooby and Shaggy and the gang,of course)plus,the movie was a real blast.i has a lot of fun watching it.i also liked the great Scottish music.it was very catchy and infectious.naturally,we know that Scooby and the Gamg will solve the mystery,but it's still fun getting to that point.the animation is also pretty good for this movie.i would love it if they did a 3D animation Scooby adventure,but we'll just have to wait and see.for me,Scooby-Doo and the Loch Ness monster is a 7/10

Same great voices, none annoying. I am going thru a bad time in my life and needed some comfort. Anything to help me forget trespassers. Love it when Fred has a meltdown about Shaggy driving. The monster is very cool. Good music. Good songs. They go hunting for Nessie and in many ways Love when Scooby & Shaggy go looking for food, imagine that, get lost in the castle, and of course shaped by the creature. Nessie may be computerized but she is very cool. Mankind is the only monsters out there. But i do wish the good monsters were real. Nessie and all the other cryptids. Has a very good ending. Haggis is a bit disgusting.

This 2004 installment to the Scooby-Doo franchise is a very mediocre and generic movie experience, even for a Scooby-Doo adventure.

You know what you are getting yourself into here, for better or worse, as all Scooby-Doo animated movies are essentially the same, just presented differently visually. So there is familiarity in what you get here at least, but that is also where it ends.

Why? Well, because "Scooby-Doo and the Loch Ness Monster" doesn't break the formula and give you something beyond what you would expect from an animated Scooby-Doo movie. And that was ultimately why the movie failed to climb out of the gutter of mediocrity.

The voice acting was good, as it usually is in these animated movies, and you have Frank Welker, Mindy Cohn and Grey Griffin, but Matthew Lillard was missing from the equation and it was audibly clear that he was not there. The movie also boasts the talents of John DiMaggio and Sheena Easton.

As for the art and animation, well it was good, as it usually always is in these animated movies in the Scooby-Doo universe. Again, playing on familiarity, and hand on heart, then it is great to sit down now into my 40s and look at something that looks exactly the same as when I was a kid. Now, I can just enjoy it with my own son.

"Scooby-Doo and the Loch Ness Monster" is not a bad animated movie, not at all. It just suffers terribly from being way too mediocre and generic. But hey, it is a Scooby-Doo adventure nonetheless.
