It's a true kids movie, and I think Jerry did a great job. The kids must enjoy it. Bee Movie is technically very well-executed. | | | | Reply | | |

Bee movie will be one of the funniest movie of the year.
Another great movie for kids and adults and is very entertaining. Some of the animation was awesome as the bees were flying around the city.
Strongly recommended. | | | | Reply | | |

This movie is not so good. I am disappointed with Jerry. I don't think the children will laugh once during the course of the film. | | | | Reply | | |
