I watched this with my family during our own "Saturday Movie Night" and we went and got snacks and the whole movie theater atmosphere; and it was a blast, it was a fun witty movie with some humorous moments. Overall I would definitely recommend watching this movie with the fam as it's a good time all around.

Plot summary
The Debunkers are a band of amateur detectives, who will do anything to become heroes (and make a buck while they're at it). The hero's are Link, Snake and Dr. Mario- named after their favorite video game characters. Link, the CEO and leader, is more interested in the look of the business, rather than doing business. Doc, the CIO (Chief Investigative Officer) is Link's honorable, trustworthy friend who is happy to bring along a new friend, Sheik (the intern, a Canadian foreign exchange girl),to join the group - and then there's Snake (the Vice President of Clandestine Maneuvers, and Secretary),the mysterious wild-card who thinks he's really a ninja and life is a series of video-game levels. Together these are the Debunkers, the self-proclaimed "premiere Mystery Debunking business in the state of California." These boys are willing to fake it till they make it, and so far they've solved only a handful of petty mysteries, but they're about to get the assignment of a lifetime. During their first day of senior year of high school, two desperate girls, Heather and Joyce, call upon their help to solve the mystery of the murder of their friend, Nina Galanosa. The Debunkers, eager as ever to prove themselves, quickly agree, but soon begin to deal with expectations of reality.

Fun movie to watch for the kids
Lots of fun!
The Debunkers are a band of amateur detectives, who will do anything to become heroes while getting right - hence the LLC part of their name - but they're just geeks at heart. After all, their code names come from their favorite video games: Link, Snake and Dr. Mario.
Now with their new intern, Canadian foreign exchange student Sheik, they're on a question to become the premiere mystery debunking business in the state of California.
On the first day of senior year, the Debunkers are hired by two girls who need someone to discover who killed their friend. Soon, however, our heroes find themselves up against not only a killer, but perhaps the occult.
I had a lot of fun with this movie. It seems like the springboard for a potential series, which I would not mind watching at all. It moved really quickly and had just enough quirky charm to keep me invested.
My Review Of "Debunkers, Inc"
"Debunkers, Inc" is very family friendly. The thought that kept coming to mind was that - this film reminds me of the Saturday series 'The Inspectors' about college kids interning for the Inspector General's office of the Postal Service- or something like that. Only in style, campiness and very soft drama. Only with "Debunkers, Inc" there is a direct link to the Scooby Doo concept.
The story and overall intend is a cute, simple adventure mystery with an element of paranormal activity which sets up this group of high schoolers for a chance to show their skills. It's murder mystery in a very benign way, There is no violence and the film never gets anywhere close to thriller territory. It is all mid-morning weekend i/e approved.
The acting is disjointed and a bit too theatrical, which if the whole concept would have been to go camp, would have been okay. But the supporting cast and a lot of the situational stuff stays bland and straight which creates a clunky, disenchantment air that causes the entertainment value to struggle to take off. Overall "Debunkers, Inc" is only going to appeal to a small, select audience. Like I said, that weekend mid-morning kiddie crowd. Unfortunately though, the movie never reaches it's inspired target as Scooby approved.
