The plot and message(s) are muddled and confusing - this movie was quite obviously the vanity project of a stand-up comedian, not a storyteller. Only Seinfeld's steady stream of one-liners add any life to the proceedings.

It was as if they couldn't decide whether the film was for kids or adults--it started out with a story kids could identify with, then turned into a courtroom story, then an environmental thing; no wonder it flopped. There aren't many laughs, and anyone who expects made-up worlds to make sense somehow are sure to be infuriated. Not an annoying picture, but not cute either. Also, bee-human romantic relationship--WTF?!?

I just can't get over the fact that all the plants died without pollen - not fail to reproduce - just died. Then the pollen immediately brought them back to life. It pissed me off too much. The premise was barely hanging on but this stamped on its fingers and sent it over the waterfall. The moral message is "you are a small cog in a big machine but the machine can't function without you" which is reassuring in a dystopian kinda way.

It's not very good, Jerry Seinfield simply isn't a good voice actor, this is especially evident when he has to do a trademark cartoon yell. The supporting cast is better but the script itself isn't good either. It feels like a copy of Pixar's A Bug's Life but all the technology just feels too far fetched and is just off. The animation is just OK and nothing special and generally the jokes aren't very funny. I suppose it's good for the kids but for adults it's pretty boring.

It doesn't hit consistently enough to be worth a full recommendation, but Seinfeld is Seinfeld, and some of the jokes are very funny. Others...not so much, but that's what you get when you try to juggle between playing towards kids and adults. Warburton's voice acting is loud and annoying, but there are a bunch of nice cameos in the vocal department. A bee and a human in a semi-romantic relationship is just really fucked up. It's enjoyable, but it's certainly not good.

"...a lot of diversionary mayhem in the final 10 minutes ... can't disguise the fact that the movie is forced by its own volition to do an about-face and celebrate the very conformity that it had earlier dismissed."

All work and no play so the flowers won't go away. What the hell is going on in this movie? Seinfeld shouts his way through a coming of age, interspecies romance, courtroom procedural, nature loving, bad pun filled mess of a i repeat what the hell movie. If it had more characters it would be as unfocused as 1941

a few good jokes, like the lawyer/briefcase thing, but overall it will be forgotten pretty soon

About an hour later til' I'm on her good side
We in bed, hands on her good thighs
I try to kiss, she like "Good night."
But I'm like-
"Look, I just turned off The Departed for a movie about a bee
I've been cutting back on farting, tweeting, arguing, and weed
Yesterday I wore a cardigan at dinner with your sweet, and supportive...
And during the fourth quarter, of the Eagles!
Now reward it!"

While it may not be terrible for a kids movie, it's also not very good and gets incredibly stupid as it goes on.

'Bee Movie' is cute and amiable, some good jokes, but makes somewhat of an awkward transition into goofy courtroom drama. Overall, Jerry Seinfeld delivers a kiddie pic that doesn't really disappoint, but lacks that love factor.

Loved it! It asks the viewer to make some strange leaps in logic (like why all of a sudden the human population accepts the fact that bees can talk), but it's very Seinfieldesque in that way.

Well, if you can take the seinfeldian material and the jewish (bees) allegory of pride and prejudice (gold as honey, humanity as the nazis), this will look incredibly underrated, but still of sort of too self-conscious even for grown-ups -- because kids definitely won't get or like this.

It's incredible how crazy this movie is. The unbelievable plot almost blew my mind of how weird and stupid it is. The voice acting is also very bad, especially Zellweger who sounds as if she's drunk the whole time. And bedbug.. Did they actually imply that the bee has sex with the human? Seriously??!?

I would have ranked it the equivalent of a 'B', but it's not that good!

I'm going to be honest, I watched this movie while on LSD and all I can tell you is, the movie is still utter shit and pretty boring. Did they just write Jerry Seinfeld a blank check?
