I sat down here in 2020 to watch "Chill Out, Scooby-Doo!" from 2007 with my 10 year old son, as he enjoys the "Scooby-Doo" animated movie quite a bit. And since we hadn't already seen this 2007 animated movie, we found the time to catch up with it.
And I must say that "Chill Out, Scooby-Doo!" was definitely an enjoyable animated movie. Sure, it was basically and essentially the same as every single other "Scooby-Doo!" adventure. But isn't that part of the charm?
The animation in "Chill Out, Scooby-Doo!" was good, and the drawing style too. It is great that they keep holding on to the traditional and classic drawing style that we grew up with. It keeps a sense of familiarity to the franchise.
As an animated movie, having a proper voice cast ensemble can make or break an animated movie. And luckily they had put together a good crew for voicing the various characters in "Chill Out, Scooby-Doo!". With the likes of Frank Welker, Casey Kasem, Mindy Cohn and Grey Griffin to do the core characters. But "Chill Out, Scooby-Doo!" also have such great and noteworthy voices of Rene Auberjonois, James Hong and Alfred Molina on the cast list.
It was actually interesting the way they opted to keep the mystery of the yeti - aka. abominable snowman - at the end of this animated movie. That was definitely something I enjoyed.
If you enjoy the "Scooby-Doo!" animated movies and adventures, then the 2007 "Chill Out, Scooby-Doo!" is definitely a must watch, because it is an archetypical "Scooby-Doo!" movie, for better or worse. I am rating it a six out of ten stars.
