Scooby-Doo! Mask of the Blue Falcon

2012

The Mega Mondo Pop Cartoon-a-Con in sunny California marks the spot for mystery in this all-new original Scooby-Doo adventure! The Mystery Inc. pals -- Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy and Scooby -- head to the annual convention, but they're not there to crack their next case. They want to meet their favorite comic book characters and see a megabucks movie premiere, an explosive big-screen remake of the classic cartoon The Adventures of Blue Falcon, featuring Shaggy and Scooby's favorite superheroes: caped avenger Blue Falcon and his trusty but bumbling robo-pup, Dynomutt.

Very mild insults or exclamations like 'washed-up' or 'bumbling', consistent with family-friendly animation.

Romance1/5
Why this rating?

Mr. Hyde terrorizes convention-goers, a giant Hyde rampages, and characters face chases and monster peril, though comedy softens the threat.

Comic superhero and monster action includes attacks, chases, a carjacking, missiles, and defeated villains; violence is fantastical and non-graphic.
