Bee Movie
A couple of days ago I finally got to watch the new DreamWorks animation movie "Bee Movie", created by Jerry Seinfeld and voiced by him, Chris Rock, Renée Zellweger and a bunch of other stars.
The movie's done well so far at the box office, but other than that, I didn't read any reviews or hear much about it other than through some appearances by Jerry Seinfeld in which he talks about the movie. So I didn't know what to expect really.
The movie follows Barry B. Benson, a bee who has just graduated from college, and is disillusioned at his lone career choice: making honey. He decided to go on a trip outside the hive to discover the outside world before having to spend his whole life doing one job, he gets into trouble and Vanessa, a florist in New York City, saves his life. A relationship blossoms between the two, he discovers humans actually eat honey, decides to sue, and well the adventure goes on from there.
I really enjoyed this movie, it's very well done, it's funny, it's light, the characters are so nice and cute; a really fun movie I'd be willing to watch again.
Great effort from Jerry Seinfeld and DreamWorks.
I totally recommend watching this movie if you're into animation and comedy; it's really cool.

I enjoyed this movie as well. For those attending the movies I would say this is the best one out there at the moment. Fred Clause runs second and everything else stink. I would avoid Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium I thought it stunk. It is actually Dustin Hoffman who ruins it, I was surpised.
