Product Description

Scooby-Doo: The Mystery Begins! (BD Combo)

What brings best friends together? For Daphne, Velma, Fred, Shaggy and Shaggy’s spunky pup Scooby-Doo, it’s a mystery! The feature-length live-action Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins original movie takes you back to when four teenage sleuths (plus one dog detective) first met. Unjustly accused of staging a spooky practical joke complete with ghosts, the kids are suspended from Coolsville High. To clear their names, they team to solve the supernatural mystery…and head straight into nonstop laughs and adventure. Special fun, special friends and extra-special effects make this “how-it-all-began” story – from boy-meets-dog to the first trip in the Mystery Machine and more – a doggone great time!

How do four teens as different as Fred, Velma, Daphne, and Shaggy, and an overenthusiastic dog named Scooby-Doo meet, become friends, and join forces to form an investigative team? The live-action, CGI animated film Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins travels back in time to the fateful days when Shaggy first meets Scooby-Doo and Fred, Velma, Daphne, Shaggy all ended up in detention together at Coolsville High. The football-obsessed Fred, glamorous Daphne, science-brain Velma, and misfit Shaggy couldn't be more different, but a common interest in mystery novels, combined with an otherworldly visit from some local ghosts, draws the teens together and sets in motion a joint investigation that will forever change their relationships with one another. Ripe with Velma's scientific theories, Daphne's air-headed comments, Fred's sports-inspired tendencies to call the plays, and Shaggy's and Scooby's bumbling ineptitude, the film also takes a comical look at some iconic Scooby-Doo! references like how Scooby got his name, who invented Scooby snacks, and the origin of the mystery machine. These classic references are oddly juxtaposed with decidedly modern details like texting and the use of cell phones in school, but somehow the tongue-in-cheek humor of old mixed with new just adds to the fun. While it will always seem strange to see the Scooby-Doo gang in anything but full animation, this live-action film is amusing and scores higher marks than its predecessor Scooby-Doo: The Movie because the characters are much less one-dimensional. (Ages 6 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 stars WAY better than I thought it was going to be!
Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2015
Verified Purchase
I bought this fully expecting to be disappointed. Although I'm sure I enjoyed the other movies in the past, the cartoons have always been my favorites since I watched them as a kid. I had my oldest son next to me when we watched the previews on the Amazon page and his mouth dropped open and he said we HAD to get it. Most previews hype up a movie so much and then we end up disappointed so I made a compromise with him and we bought it. The day it came in I put it in the DVD player to let the kids watch it and had planned on doing something else myself.... but I got sucked into the movie! At first it was because I thought it might have been too scary for two young kids but then I just wanted to see how it ended. It was definitely a lot better than I thought it was going to be and kept me entertained. The kids LOVED it... and although the ghosts are a little on the scary side there is quite a bit of humor in it that makes it a little less scary.

For sensitive kids, I would be a little cautious with the movie. The "bad guys" ARE a little more on the scary side. Even my children (which are pretty obsessed with scary things already from watching their father play video games) were talking about ghosts in the house after watching the movie. All of us have very active imaginations so I try to be careful on what gets put on the TV... but this is almost borderline for me. If the bad guys weren't so creepy then I would say this is a MUST HAVE for any Scooby crew fan. However, I would be cautious with young children.

As for the acting... it's not the best and I kept thinking I knew the actor who played Fred from somewhere and after looking it up I finally realized it was from How I Met Your Mother where he played a character named Scooby! That completely cracks me up! I don't think the acting is horrible, but I couldn't fall in love with all of the characters. I'm not sure if it was from their acting or just the fact that there were some differences from the cartoons. I read a negative review that I agreed with only ONE thing out of and that was the fact that Scooby didn't seem to be in the movie that much. In fact, I felt like they had to work hard to get parts in the movie for Scooby. However, I like the fact that they explained how everyone met... and I didn't think the "plot" was missing.

Overall, I think it's well worth the purchase and I KNOW that we will be watching this more than once in our house. The kids already want to have a movie night with their Grandma to watch it with her (she is a huge Scooby fan, too). My kids are younger and although it was a little long for them, we only had one or two interruptions and then they went back to watching it again.

We don't have kidsand we were laughing our rear ends off. Shaggy is amazing he really had the voice and everthing down. I would say the only two complaints 1 Freddy is not blond 2 in the cartoon there are no real ghost. All in all I recommed this for any age.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great means to an end!...
Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2012
Verified Purchase
This is a wonderful live action adaptation to the beginning of the Scooby Doo series, except for a few story line problems.
#1. The beginning says that it's the year 1969, which would be correct according to the original television series, however the problem lies with the fact that Shaggy Rogers (Nick Palatas) later claims in the movie that he has CD's, DVD's and MP3's at his house... A 10 year old child may not see through this as an exaggeration of the truth, however the blueprints for an Optical Audio Disc were not drawn up until 1974 by L. Ottens, a director of the audio industry group within the Philips Corporation, and the first CD was not printed and finalized until 1976.
#2. the Digital Video Disc was not invented until 1995.
#3. Mp3's were not fully developed and downloadable until 1993.
and last but not least.
#4. Magnesium Chlorate has no recorded analgesic or effects of rendering subjects unconscious... this is the same theory in the movie "Evolution" when (David Duchovny) claims that selenium is an active ingredient in Head and Shoulders shampoo. Again, IT IS NOT!!!!....

Oh and one more thing "Hayley Kiyoko is SO DAMN HOT"...

3.0 out of 5 stars Just for Kids
Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2009

I enjoyed the theatrical films for their sense of nostalgia mostly. Though, obviously targeting younger audiences almost exclusively, rather than designed to appeal to us (ahum) aging fans that grew up with the cartoons, it was still fun seeing the characters I loved in my youth, come to life in a new way. Watching the first two films with my niece and nephew (6 and 8 yrs old) enhanced the experience even more, as they were screaming and giggling like I probably did when I was younger. This new direct to video sequel was a disappointment for me as an adult. The nominal production values encouraged keeping the remote close and my finger on the fast-forward button (the button where you can still hear what's being said, but the film is just slightly sped up). But my niece and nephew were just as excited as they were with the feature films and seemed to love this one just as much despite an effort by Warner Bros that seems almost shamefully exploitive of a wonderful franchise.

Aunque la descripción en amazon indica que el disco cuenta con doblaje al español esto es falso. El producto que me llegó no cuenta con ello ni siquiera con subtítulos al español. Lamentablemente no te puedes dar cuenta sino hasta que lo abres por la etiqueta de importación que te impide ver los idiomas con los que cuenta.
