We had many people (of various reputes) recommend the Bee Movie to us as a funny, computer-animated film intended more for adults than for children. This is a lie. The movie does have its moments, and made us LOL (Laugh Out Loud for our older readers.) several times. However, it is definitely targeted at children, don't be fooled.Barry is a bee. After graduating the Bee University, he is about to start a lifetime of grueling labor when he decides he wants to leave the hive and adventure. What he does find is a beautiful woman whom he hits it off with (This subject is awkwardly mentioned and then quickly dropped leaving us wondering about the logistics...) and starts a crusade against honey-stealing humans.
Quick vote: This movie was cute and quirky. These bees were funny!
Aunt Kenya's Philosophy: I have oft admired the graceful bee for his verve and panache. When spring comes around, I like to take a bee in my mouth and instruct it on the cruelties of the world. The bee generally responds by stinging me back; proving my point I might add. A movie on this incredible species was long overdue and I was pleased to see the advertising exploits of Jerry Seinfeld finally pay off. What a disaster his book tours were!
