Our take
This is a kids compilation, not a dark Batman film. The Mystery Inc. gang helps Batman and Robin stop cartoon crooks. Expect chases, traps, and silly villain plots. Fine for most kids 8 and up who already like Scooby-Doo. Very young kids who jump at loud cartoon danger may want a grown-up nearby
Uplifting themes
Friends share clues and back each other when the villains show up The gang, Batman, and Robin work as a team and try to catch crooks without being cruel
Story (may spoil tone)

It consists of two episodes from Hanna-Barbera's The New Scooby-Doo Movies, "The Dynamic Scooby Doo Affair" and "The Caped Crusader Caper", where Scooby-Doo and the gang team up with Batman and Robin to capture Joker and the Penguin.

Talk after watching
- The gang solves clues instead of punching first. When is that the smarter move?
- Batman and Robin help friends. What does a good teammate do?
