Good Qualities

 * 1) This is the first Scooby-Doo! film ever, and it has a great story, with an interesting premise of three troublemaker ghosts, "The Boo Brothers".
 * 2) Nice to see real monsters again, fits well with the franchise.
 * 3) Good animation, like the Scooby-Doo cartoons from the 60-80s.
 * 4) It has an awesome intro song, and a fantastic soundtrack composed by Sven Libaek.
 * 5) The film moves at a decent pace.
 * 6) Shaggy and Scooby are still their lovable selves. Scrappy is also still likable here, retaining his better personality and voice from the three previous Scooby-Doo TV shows.
 * 7) Shaggy still looks good in his clothes from mh:besttvshows: The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo.
 * 8) Great voice acting. Especially from Casey Kasem as Shaggy, and Don Messick as Scooby and Scrappy.
 * 9) * Jerry Houser, Rob Paulsen and Ronnie Schell all did a great job voicing the Boo Brothers.
 * 10) The three Boo Brothers (Freako, Meako and Shreako) are fantastic and well-developed characters with an interesting backstory.
 * 11) The clues idea is excellent, as the trio looks for the treasure that Shaggy’s Uncle left for him, in the fireplace was an excellent hiding spot, and it was nice that Shaggy gave it to the Boo Brothers to help them out.
 * 12) A nice twist with a good sheriff having an evil twin brother.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Scrappy still has some annoying moments, but thankfully not too many.
 * 2) There are some unlikable characters in the movie, like Sadie Mae Scroggins, who just wouldn’t leave Shaggy alone and wanted to be with him, and her brother, Billy Bob Scroggins, who wanted to shot Shaggy and would not stop.
 * 3) The animation, while good, is frequently recycled, especially the running animations.
 * 4) * There are also animation errors all over the place, which was typical of '80s television animation.
 * 5) The dialogue heavily uses exposition. Characters frequently state the obvious, even things that are being shown on-screen.
 * 6) Still, not all of the jokes land, especially the one-liners.
