Grade: C

Bee Movie is an animated film from DreamWorks.  Jerry Seinfeld produced and voices Barry, the bee, our hero.  Renee Zellweger voices the human florist he befriends.  Barry graduates from school and wants to see the world before settling into his bee job, so he leaves the hive and discovers that humans are “stealing” honey.  He set out to sue humans so that they stop exploiting the bees.  Cute story, with a nice message about finding our purpose and contributing to society.  A lot of holes, but they’re easily forgiven as this is basically a cartoon.  Nice enough for parents to enjoy with their kids.
