Review of Bee Movie

Bee Movie (2007)
7/10
To Bee or not to Bee
19 September 2021
I'm kind of surprised that not every single review has this as a summary line ... then again maybe it's better that way - I can use it with less guilt and it has probably a better effect.

Bees ... for the longest time they had a bad rep. And I reckon they still have - especially when you are eating (outside) and they come and you sort of panic. Though I'm not sure if it's bees every time. They (wasps) have similar traits and looks. They also are useful to nature, in a different way then bees, but still.

So taking a bit of the fear(s) many have of those insects is not a bad thing. You may have issues with how they are being humanized (with these movies they all talk and do other human stuff that is not in their actual nature), but you have to sell a movie to kids and their parents, so just suspend your disbelief.

Voice talent at hand is really good and the story flows (or flies?) along nicely. If you are a fan of Seinfeld even better - but I think even those who may not be too aware of him, will have lots of fun.
