As is the case with many animated movies, this one starts by taking us into a non-human society where all the creatures have taken on human characteristics.

 'Bee Season' - MOVIE REVIEW - Los Angeles Times - calendarlive.com
A family sits at the heart of the evocative "Bee Season," a family with the expected insecurities, yearnings and doubts.
Her fine "Bee Season" screenplay is about more than how letters form words, it's about how individuals come together to form a family, about what connects them and what pulls them apart.
The notion that it is a universal responsibility to fix what has been shattered, to attempt to restore what has been damaged, drives this story in tandem with the need all of its characters have, each in his or her own way, to seek transcendence by searching for a personal vision of God.

 Blu-ray.com - Bee Movie (Blu-ray) - Blu-ray Review
Bee Movie misses the mark, its funniest moments coming in scenes that seem forced into the movie with little to no bearing on the story.
The movie focuses on the global importance of bees, our lack of appreciation for what they do, and their own failure to recognize their importance to society, all with an animated and "comedic" twist.
The movie is a rather fine satire on the American mindset insofar as the current state of the legal system and a commentary on the importance of work and the state of harmony required to keep the world moving forward.

 "Bee Movie" (2007) / review and/or viewer comments - Christian Spotlight on the Movies
“Bee Movie” is the story of a Bee who tires of working the same old job every day and ventures out from the hive where he encounters and befriends a human florist.
The main character, during an interview with Bee Larry King refered to “bees that had made a difference in the world” and listed “Bee Ghandi” and “Bee Jesus.” I believe this was totally inappropriate and would not have taken the youth to this movie had I known this reference would be made.
The courtroom scene where the bee said '…if nature had intended for them to be honey slaves to the White Man' was way over the line to me. The fl man sitting at the table with the white men then pushes himself away, as to not be associated with them.

 Bee Movie - Movie - Review - The New York Times
The most genuinely apian aspect of “Bee Movie,” DreamWorks’ new animated movie about, well, bees, is that it spends a lot of its short running time buzzing happily around, sniffing out fresh jokes wherever they may bloom.
The DreamWorks Animation formula, exemplified in the mighty “Shrek” franchise (and imitated by would-be rivals at Sony and Fox), is to charm the children with cute creatures and slapstick action while jabbing at the grown-ups with soft, pseudosophisticated pop- cultural satire.
The hive where he lives is a highly regimented place, where the bees, conditioned by 27 million years of evolution, work without a break in the same job for their whole lives.

 Movie review: "Bee Movie" | Salon Arts & Entertainment
But "Bee Movie" is just another ambitious, lavish animated adventure, pretty enough to look at, but ultimately foundering on the weakness of its script.
"Bee Movie" has a soft but vibrant color palette, and the design of the characters is pleasing enough: Barry has an inquisitive expression, and flits around in a fl-and-yellow striped sweater with coordinating Chuck Taylors at the end of his spindly little legs.
Part of the problem may be that, as far as I'm concerned, any animated movie released this year (and possibly in years to come) suffers in comparison with Brad Bird's "Ratatouille," a beautifully animated picture whose details and design serve a story and characters that are solid to begin with.

 Bee Movie Movie Review at Hollywood Video
Instead, there's very little sting to this movie, and aside from a few select moments of brilliance, Seinfeld's film about the lives of bees is largely inconsistent, unfunny, and visually uninspired.
The final third of Bee Movie deals with Barry's attempt at correcting the ills he perceives and the resulting consequences of his actions.
The movie is successful at making its point about bees and our ecosystem, but it achieves it so hastily in a final act that it is completely muddled and nonsensical.
