Only the very young will get the most out of this silly trifle.

Milder than the 1st, but not Scooby-snack worthy.

Well, I am now quite positive pigs have started earning their wings and Beelzebub is down in Hades having a snowball fight for the impossible just happened: I sort of liked Scooby-Doo 2.

No one is going to call Scooby-Doo 2 high art, but thanks to some outstanding production design and an even tighter grasp on the source material than the original film had, it's a treasure trove for fans.

Rated: 4/5

I can't say that I'm hoping for a long series of these films, but I've seen far worse sequels than this one.

Scooby Doo 2 is loud and colorful and does have Matthew Lillard doing an impressive impersonation of Scoobys best pal Shaggy, but theres really not much else going on.

While it's a better than the first, I still can't quite say it's a good movie. Sure, it does a lot better than the first, but it still has the same issues that hurt the first one.

A perfect sequel in the sense that it has almost all the same strengths and weaknesses as the original.

You know I never thought the film was that bad, granted pacing was a bit uneven and some of the characters could use a bit more depth to them. However the live action version of classic scooby Doo monsters and Scooby himself were exciting to see. It’s a shame we couldn’t have gotten another sequel, these actors are definitely one of my favourite versions of Mystery Inc.
