One of the better Scooby movies that holds tight to the classic elements of the original series. Sometimes you have to go back in time to see the future. These movies have better animation and should present plenty of entertainment for young and old alike. Punchy, fun, and a bit of mystery all in one.

Stands the Test of Time
As if a haunt isn't bad enough, then imagine a prehistoric haunt...
I watched "Scooby-Doo! Legend of the Phantosaur" with my seven year old son, as he enjoys the adventures of Scooby-Doo and the gang quite a lot. I grew up with these cartoons, so I know basically every story and how it will turn out, as they all follow the same formula.
With that being said, don't get me wrong, because the storyline in "Scooby-Doo! Legend of the Phantosaur" was actually quite good, albeit it still follows the same blueprint for a Scooby-Doo story; that being the gang coming across a mystery, being chased about, finding clues, and then unveiling the people behind it all. Yep, another one of those. But the storyline was actually still fun and enjoyable.
You pretty much know what you are getting when you sit down to watch an animated movie such as "Scooby-Doo! Legend of the Phantosaur", or any other Scooby-Doo movie for that matter.
The
The voice acting in the movie was quite good, as it usually is in the Scooby-Doo animated movies. And it is always a treat to have Frank Welker and Matthew Lillard to do the voices for Shaggy and Scooby-Doo.
If you enjoy the Scooby-Doo cartoons and animated movies, then you will most definitely also like "Scooby-Doo! Legend of the Phantosaur". It is an enjoyable animated movie, but still does suffer from that repetitive build up of storyline used time and time again. But this is actually an enjoyable movie for fans of Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Gang.
don't like second reveal
Shaggy can't stop screaming after a scary mystery. The doctor manages to get him to stop but orders him to quit mystery solving. The gang goes on a relaxing vacation but it does not go as planned.
I like Shaggy's issues and his journey. I like the standard Scooby-Doo adventure. It ends way too early and even the characters comment on the quick solve. Then it does the second mystery and its reveal. I don't like the second one. Scooby-Doo has never been known for being realistic but the second mystery seems more unreal than usual. I don't like the reasoning or their scheme. I just don't like it. So I like most of this movie but the last section bugs me.
