Scooby-Doo! And WWE: Curse of the Speed Demon (2016)
** (out of 4)
WWE mastermind Vince McMahon is hosting the biggest stars in a race but soon a mysterious phantom driver shows up causing major injuries to legend Dusty Rhodes. Soon Scooby and the gang must join forces with The Undertaker to try and bring down this phantom.
As a life long Scooby-Doo fan I must admit that over the past few years I've been renting any new movie instead of buying it. I don't know but it just seems like these films are being made to make money more than making an actual good film. The latest trend is to team up with various WWE stars and it just doesn't work here and I doubt fans of either group are going to be happy with this release.
There's actually very little "story" on display here and I'm positive most 2-year-olds watching will be able to guess who the "bad guy" is without any trouble. Another problem is that the Scooby gang are pretty much thrown into the background and really don't factor into these very much. The WWE guys get a lot of attention but the entire story with the race cars is just boring.
What makes this even worse is that it's doubtful fans of either series are going to be happy. Scooby and the group are downright boring as they're pushed to the background. The fans of WWE aren't going to enjoy the lack of wrestling matches. You mix the two together and there's just nothing here that's entertaining.
