Like always I was really excited to watch the next Scooby-Doo mystery but this one especially because I've always been extremely interested in big foot, and the Abominable snow man, also one of my favourite episode of Scooby-Doo was what's that snow ghost so I found myself mega excited to watch. By the end I liked it but was still left disappointed, once again it lacks funny jokes, and again is to dragged out. On the other hand I was very pleased with the voice over cast, interesting storyline, and clever twist, but sadly once again the twist was very predictable near the middle of the cartoon.
The gang are planing a vacation to Paris but Shaggy and Scooby get kidnapped by hunter and are instead sent to the Himalay's, home of mount Everest and the Abominable snow man. Upon hearing that Shaggy and Scooby are stranded the rest of the gang are quickly to the rescue. When they arrive they realize that they are nowhere to be found as they are headed up the mountain to a weather station to contact the others. With a few run ins with the creature the gang are determined to solve the mystery.
The best part about this cartoon was definitely the voice acting, this is really what saved it. once again we get to enjoy the voices of Frank Welker as Fred and Scooby-Doo, Grey Delisle as Daphne, Mindy Cohn as Velma, and of course Casey Kasem as Shaggy who all once again do a wonderful job. Joining the cast we have Rene Auberjonois as Alphonse LaFleur, Jeff Bennett as Del Chillman, Alfred Molina as Professor Jeffries, and James Hong as the High Lama. Once again this is really what saved this cartoon, if it wasn't for these great voice actors this would have been a total loss, with an interesting storyline you need good actors.
The storyline I was both impressed and let down by, I love the interesting topic of Big Foot and the Abominable snow man and even though I was constantly interested in the cartoon I was let down by the lack of good jokes, two times in a row now Scooby-Doo lacked good jokes. Also I was happy to see an interesting twist but once again was very predictable around the middle of the cartoon, but at least thats better than 20 mins like in pirates ahoy. The biggest disappointment to me was like the last Scooby-Doo cartoon it was very dragged out which I always hate seeing in a Scooby-Doo cartoon.
At the end I was still left feeling a little stale but I still enjoyed it as was an interesting cartoon and mystery. I wasn't as impressed as I wanted to be but I felt a lot better about this one unlike Pirates ahoy. If you are a Scooby-Doo fan you will definitely still want to see it no matter what and in my opinion it deserves to be seen at least once. So really it's a take it or leave it adventure much like the last one, so it's up to you with you rent or buy Chill out Scooby-Doo.
Overall score: ****** out of **********
