generationofswine Scooby Doo meets Tron? At least that would have been a fun throwback to the New Scooby Doo Movies people my age grew up on...you know, the one that was still aired on TV in the 80s and introduced the latter part of Generation X to celebrities that they really only saw in Scooby Doo until Nick at Nite took off? Yeah, that would have been a great throw-back...Instead you have, well, Scooby Doo with a Videodrome feel where he gets sucked into a video game and maybe it was an update of Jumanji and...really....It just stank. I'm sure kids like it, but it wasn't Scooby Doo. It was awful and, honestly, the jokes never stuck and humor never landed.

callanvass Scooby Doo and the gang get beamed into a video game by someone who doesn't want them to uncover their secret. A "phantom" virus is unleashed, stopping anyone in its path. The gang is forced to play all levels of the game to survive and solve the mystery. This is officially one of my favorite Scooby movies. This one fires on all cylinders, only becoming stagnant near the end. I love Scooby Doo, but I always thought the movies were hit and miss, because it's hard to stretch the material over 30 minutes. I hated how they had to rush some of the levels, but this movie really is cool. This one is for the die-hard fans. There are some great references to the TV series! (Scooby Doo: Where Are You?) They use some infamous villains they had defeated before. The Tar Monster and the Miner 49er are just a couple of examples. I'm not gonna spoil them all for you. The last level is a Scooby Fan's wet dream! Everything you could imagine is in it. The Phantom Virus is an awesome villain! He's very threatening and comes across like a family friendly version of Freddy Krueger with all the great one-liners. There is actually a decent twist at the end that I didn't see coming. I'm usually able to figure out who the villain is, but not this time. As a longtime Scooby fan, I can honestly say that you should love this one. It has a bit of everything! It's fun, exciting, and ingenious. They hit a home run with this creative film. 8/10

musachan This movie's plot was actually quite original. Not cheesy like Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island.Basically, the gang meets up with Erik, an old friend working on a video game about everyone's favorite meddling kids. However, an evil virus strikes and the gang is sucked into the video game based on their old mysteries.Although the levels seem to have nothing to do with the actually mysteries from the series (with the exception being the final level), it's quite good! The B-52s rendition of the theme song is to die for (I'm a huge fan of the band, and that's half the reason I rented it.) and the other songs, notably Cyber Dream', are really great as well. The best scenes, though, were all from the final level. I'm not telling what happens, but you'll be surprised! I definitely recommend this.

ApolloBoy109 Say what you want, I have been watching Scoob and the gang since it first aired (1966). I enjoy them all and this Chase through the past was written with an eye for long time fans and the gentle self-aware comedy we've come to love. The gang's whiz-kid friend has invented a computer game based on the antics of Mystery, Inc.(s) past cases. However a wicked game virus has been created by one of four possible suspects. When the gang is sucked into the Scooby game they must battle villains and the Virus on each level to get out. Along the way we are treated to the B-52s singing the signature theme, Roman warriors, Dinosaurs and the original monsters they fought in the first three seasons. Only this time -- they're not men in masks either. The real treat is when the gang meets themselves from the original show. (They are the actual characters in the game)Kudos for the mystery itself too. Fun clues are laid out for the ardent observer. This video marks the first of the new Scooby Movies that does not have Mary Kay Bergman voicing the red-haired beauty. Miss Bergman passed on about a year ago. Her voice is missed. The film is dedicated to William Hanna who also past away recently. If you're 5 - 14 or just a Scooby fan you will love this film!! A Scooby Snack for the eyes!!.........
