People. Its a movies about talking bees...
Why do people always have to point out little inaccurasies with EVERYTHING? They're talking bees! It's a comedy! Stop reading into things too much and relax your over-worked, under-used brains. Anyway, I thought it was actually pretty funny. Renee really did this voice acting well and the quick script really helped the delivery of most of the jokes. I don't know why people are saying it was too slow. If you want an adventure film that's safe to take your itsy bitsy over-protected children to... You're pretty much screwed. xD

Not Bee Funny
Not very funny. The title is the funniest thing about the movie. Too much romance and flirtation between the bee and the woman, uncalled for. Also, very slow, movie seemed to drag on and on. I love Seinfeld and was disappointed.

Had to leave!
Took my 6 year old daughter to see the movie and we left after 15 minutes. She has not seen many movies so the whole experience is someewhat new to her but the early scenes where Barry gets caught in the rain, swatted at, sucked through a car engine, etc. , were too much for her. I suspect that the (overly) loud soundtrack in the theater did not help. I also agree with a previous review that highlighted the difficulties with trailers. Often edited to "excite" they end up being much more intense and, personally, I was not prepared for "PG" level trailers. I understand that my daughter may be a little "movie sensitive" but wanted to air a note of concren if others read the inital review of "sweet and easy" suggested by the CS reviewer.

Good movie for the family
My son loves it but the bit when Vanessa sticks a fork in her hand to see if she's dreaming worries me.

OK
It is a good film, but a pretty disturbing concept.

Too boring and romantic for little kids
This is an ok movie, my 4-year-old likes it, but she doesn't love it. There's too much romantic stuff going on, and several crude images, particularly in the montage at the end when everyone is being arrested for their theft of 'bee culture.' She also finds the long courtroom scenes boring.

Good family movie with a good message that kids can relate to.
one scene that concerned me was when one Bee accuses the other of "making out"with his girlfriend.something I really don't want to expalin to my 3 and 4 year old. But other than that it was a really good movie and both girls sat through the whole thing and enjoyed it. The ,message that your actions have consequences was good too when all the bees quit working and all the flowers started to die was a good message of how everything works together for a purpose and my older daughter noticed this right away and asked questions about it. Good family movie. Go and ahead and watch it.

Why this is geared to little ones is beyond me!?
My daughter is 5 and I an elementary teacher. I am a very conscious of everything she's is exposed to. If something is not rated G, then I prescreen the DVD and use website research to decide if she views it. The innuendo and foremost the several times stated "making out" were completely unnecessary and inappropriate for a 5 year old. This movie was funny for me, but the lawsuit angle and the idea that the humans were stealing the honey was over my child's head. What does a 5 yr. old know of lawsuits? She won't see this movie!!

Not so good...
BEE MOVIE has an awesome premise, but it is very poorly executed. Renee Zellweger is good, but the film never really suceeds where it intends to. There is no sex in the movie at all, but surprisingly uncalled for innuendo. Drag queens are mentioned and shown, and bees talk of how a spiders' "eight legs kept me up all night". A lawyer questions the main bee character as to whether he is the human female's "bed bug". The same lady is seen as to live with an egotistical jerk. There are several intense scenes as well.
