I've just watched the movie and now, I'd like to share with you my (a bit mixed) feelings about it.
First - the girls. I expected they'd have their Pup-personalities. Granted, it was true with Daphne (minus the snarky comments) but I've been a bit disappointed upon finding out Velma was acting like her "adult" self and talking a lot. However, this is forgivable as we can assume the movie's action takes place sometime after the last episode of the show - when Daphne starts getting subtler and more woman-like while Velma transforms from a cute but naive kid into a confident, strong-willed and snarky (but still cute!) early teen. Plus, I like the concept of HER calling the shots and having Daphne as her "right hand". Girls rule! ^_^
Second - Freddy. It was nice to see his goofy self again. I've had a few good laughs - when he tried to take charge and marched right into a wall or when he made some of those "brilliant" comments of his. By the way, how was Velma calling him (in English) on such occasions? In Polish, she sarcastically called him "Mr. Holmes". Incidentally, I loved how he never noticed the irony; it's so much in his style! XD What surprised me, though, it's that he didn't even TRY to accuse Red Herring. I guess he either recovered from his Red-mania or had been forbidden (again) to even talk about him. :P
Third - Scooby and Velma's voices. I don't know if it happened also in the English version but in Polish, they sounded like their "adult" selves - despite having the same VAs for over 20 years (minus the live-action movies where the humans were voiced by other actors) and despite said people being two of three most skilled VAs that I know (the third is Shaggy's VA).
Last but not least - the final scene (no spoilers, don't worry). After the mystery is solved, the gang is hanging out in their clubhouse; that's nothing strange. What IS unusual, though, it's that Shaggy and Scooby are having a bath (blocking the bathroom, by the way)! Now, here's the question: HOW is it possible for them to have a bathroom (and probably a toilet, too) on the top of a tall tree? And what sense does it make since Shaggy's house is so near? o.O
To sum up - even though it's not Pup and Red Herring wasn't even mentioned, I still enjoyed the movie. It's funny and worth those 60 minutes (or so) from your life. I recommend it. :)
