| St. Paul Pioneer PressChris Hewitt (St. Paul)It's not worth seeing, but if all the hype has you expecting a classic, you should lower your expectations. |
| I.E. WeeklyAmy NicholsonWhat distinguishes this better than half-decent comedy is its detailed insight into the bee brain |
| DVDTalk.comBrian OrndorfCertainly Bee Movie could've been smarter, faster, and far cleverer, and it's disappointing to watch Seinfeld settle for less. For a man who made a mint reveling in comedic risk on a weekly basis, his first movie lacks serious sting. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderIt's a minor film. It'll be amusing once and then forgotten. |
