Critics Consensus

Bee Movie has humorous moments, but its awkward premise and tame delivery render it mostly forgettable.

[T]his comedy provides sporadic chuckles but, you'll pardon the expression, drones on for much of its running time.

What distinguishes this better than half-decent comedy is its detailed insight into the bee brain

Seinfeld the professional cynic has become Seinfeld the environmental crusader. Who'd have thunk it?

3/4

Seinfeld's brand of observational humor is in full force, only imbued with more imagination and irony when applied to the bee world.

While the premise is unique, the approach is generic.

The very first movie I saw in theaters, and with good reason, too. It's chock-full of humorous moments which ultimately became memes, and it tells us that bees play an important role in the ecosystem.

6/10. I genuinely mean it when I say Bee Movie is so bad it's good. The story is weird and doesn't always make sense, but that's exactly what makes it funny and entertaining. It's a goofy movie that became a classic because of its humor and internet memes.
