I normally enjoy the SSD movies. I couldn't believe that Canon City was continually mispronounced as 'Cannon' City rather than the correct pronunciation, 'Canyon' City. It's a Spanish word. That could have been easily fact-checked. One would think that highly intelligent, Denver based postal workers would know the correct pronunciation of another city relatively close to Denver. That detail ruined the whole movie for me. A little fact check next time, please.

Even the mysteries they take on in the form of undeliverable mail have tender moments. This one was no different.There is still the quirky and nerdy nature of at least three of them, although Oliver has come a long way. He is still incredibly formal. Norman and Rita are planning a wedding but they are still a little bit different. I keep thinking that Oliver and Shane should be getting married also. The look that Shane has in her eyes when she looks at him is definitely love. The story gives us plenty of chance to assume what the hidden secret will be. Maybe you will guess right, but maybe not.

They changed the intro song... blech.Mostly good, Rita has begun wedding planning, Norman & Shane are harboring secrets...Oliver leads the crew to find what they think is a little boy that has been abducted. The gang ventures out in the RV, literally all they are missing is Scooby! To solve the mystery... What they find is of course not what they expected! One should never assume. I would think they would have learnt that by now.Good - not the best of the bunch.The most shocking thing might have been Norman's change in style!
... View MoreThere wasn't little continuity of this movie with Norman from other movies of the series. Norman drove in the previous movie SSD: Lost without you. When him and Rita were driving to New Mexico. Sad to see a character developed and showing true growth as Norman get stunted in this one because 1) Afraid to drive and 2) Doesn't want to have his own children. To me, someone truly dropped the ball on plot and character continuity of the series and just did the writing to 'just get something done to meet a deadline'. This is definitely the lowest of the recent movies with the best being Higher Ground.
