 Laugh out loud funny September 2, 2008
As fans of the Seinfeld TV show, we wanted to see Jerry's "Bee Movie". We were pleasantly surprised to see that this animated movie retains that Seinfeld humor, although in a more family-friendy manner. We were laughing out loud throughout, and in particular got a kick out of the Patrick Wharburton-voiced character.
 Black and Yellow August 24, 2008
A very good animated film, Bee Movie, brings to the screen the story of a young bee that refuses to accept having to choose a specific job and stick with it for life (which is the `bee way' of doing things). An unexpected arrival, however, will make him discover a world he had no idea existed...
Jerry Seinfeld, Renee Zellweger, Matthew Broderick, and the rest of the cast have done a good job with their performances, though they are by far not my favorite actors.
One thing was rather curious and that was how a specific small religious/ethnic group was mentioned in the movie for no apparent reason whatsoever except to promote it and possibly get the audience exposed to it and/or used to it... There seems to be quite a trend in the last few years. Hmmm...
Furthermore, enough with the openly and provocative anti-southern bias, as the `baddy' lawyer in a trial taking place in New York (!) is (of course) a southerner...
All right they lost, let's move on please! No need or reason to demonize them in the eyes of the new generations.
In short, it's the same old/usual cliche involving one of Hollywood's favorite villains/scapegoats: Southerners (it must have been really difficult to include Germans, Serbs, or Russians in this one).
Nevertheless, the movie is very well written and very well presented, and it will surely provide for more than just a few laughs.
The setting, the plot, the dialogues, the colors, the humor, and the music are all very good.
In short, Bee Movie is an entertaining movie definitely worth watching. Strongly recommended along with the Shrek and Ice Age movies, Antz, The Ant Bully, Cars, Flushed Away, Hoodwinked, Madagascar, Monsters Inc., Over the Hedge, and Ratatouille.
Entertaining... August 23, 2008
4-Stars describes the great art and music, it is a treat for the senses. In the down-side, the humanization of the bees did not work well. They are shown in a technological advanced society where they drive cars, as opposed to a simple society like in "Antz". In sum, it is worth seen, even for adults.
 Good first try at cartoons for Jerry Seinfeld August 20, 2008
Dreamworks seems to be in perpetual competition with Pixar. Year after year they come out with CGI-animated movies dealing with weird and wacky subjects that try to be as innovative as the Pixar movie coming out that year. This one is one of the better ones by Dreamworks. Starring Jerry Seinfeld, it revolves around a bee who decides to sue humanity over our theft of "their" honey. The feel of the movie is bright; bright colors, bright music, cheery dialogue, and of course, bright-colored characters - bees. The setting is NYC with humor straight out of the Seinfeld TV show as befits the main actor. All in all, a good 1.5 hours of comedy appropriate for all ages.
Admiring colors August 9, 2008
in bluray, with the right calibration for your tv, this movie is going to be VERY colorful. With details that you just did not see from when you watched it on the dvd. Its a must have for any bluray lovers.
sadly the sound quality is nothing to brag about
