Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed

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

It's all a terrible bore.

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.

It's a terrible movie. The laughs aren't there. The stunts are stupid. There's no plot whatsoever.

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.

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.

Those paying attention will note that Linda Cardellini comes close to stealing the whole movie out from under her costars.
