More than likely, your problem is that the particular movie you are trying to rip contains a newer protection scheme that neither Shrink or Decrypter can handle alone. They both haven't been updated in a while so this problem is becoming more and more common.
There are other free programs out there that will take care of those new protections. The best known of which is DVD Fab Decrypter, which will basically copy all DVD files to you HDD. If you want to, you can simply process them through Shrink.
If, however, you don't mind spending a couple dollars towards a solution, I strongly recommend a program called Slysoft AnyDVD, which simply runs in the background without you having to do anything. It automatically removes the copy protections on the disc so that you can use DVD shrink or DVD decrypter directly without the extra step.
edit: Actually, I double checked and Hoodwinked doesn't seem to have any special copy protection on it. Just good old CSS. The latest versions of DVD Shrink and Decrypter should handle this particular title... Is it in good condition? Any scratches or smudges on it?

Always use good quality blank media. Verbatim is always a good call. Don't be seduced by those 50-spindles you find in the $2.99 bin at your local car wash! :)
