Scooby-Doo Monster in Mexico was boring and the animation was less than spectacular for me at least. I will give it credit for having a complex plot that required 2 pages in the summary section of Wikipedia. That doesn't change the fact that the voice acting was incredible with the best being Daphne who had a pleasant cougar voice rest in peace Heather North. Shaggy's voice actor Casey Kaseem also died which is unfortunate. The animation is an acquired taste. You'll either tolerate it, like it, or hate it. For some reason, it looks worse than the direct to video late 90s movies despite this film coming out 5 years after Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island. I will give the movie credit for having so many twists and turns especially for a kid's film quite surprising the main villain unmasking even though I think I saw this film as a kid when I was around 7-9. I was half entertained. It's all right but this is one of the weaker Scooby-Doo animated films better than the Reluctant Werewolf, Ghoul School, and Mask of the Blue Falcon. However, it is far weaker than the Classic VHS films like Zombie Island, Cyber Chase, Alien Invaders, and Witch's Ghost. WWE crossovers were also more entertaining and the other late 2000s films greatly improved upon this film's animation, formula and voice acting. This is the second film created after Cyber Chase in 2001 so I'll give it some credit there. Still in the bottom third. If you're Mexican and/or you have Mexican kids you might like the scenery and reference. However, it could make the film even worse for your viewing experience.
TLDR; This is one of the weaker Scooby-Doo Animated Films avoid this one and the 80's TV Movies check out the VHS films, late 2000's films, and pretty much all of the 2010's films. Avoid Mystery Map, and the Lego films unless you have very young kids even still I wouldn't recommend them.
