- 91Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanEntertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanAgreeably skewed fun.
- 75Rolling StonePeter TraversRolling StonePeter TraversAt its relaxed best, when it's about, well, nothing, the slyly comic Bee Movie is truly beguiling.
- 67The A.V. ClubNathan RabinThe A.V. ClubNathan RabinIt's good to have Seinfeld back, even in this watered-down form.
- 63ReelViewsJames BerardinelliReelViewsJames BerardinelliOn the whole, this is another disappointing animated effort and it resides considerably lower on the totem pole than this year's current non-live action champion, "Ratatouille."
- 63Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsChicago TribuneMichael PhillipsMuch of this wordplay is clever, though there’s something off with the plotting.
- 50The Hollywood ReporterKirk HoneycuttThe Hollywood ReporterKirk HoneycuttUnfortunately, bees just aren't that funny...Nor is the odd story Seinfeld and his collaborators dreamed up very inspired.
- 50VarietyTodd McCarthyVarietyTodd McCarthyAmiable but no more, Bee Movie puts a hiveful of potent talent at the service of a zig-zigging, back-of-an-envelope story that's short on surprise and originality.
- 50Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenAustin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenNo nectar of the gods this, but we can still be thankful that Bee Movie is a sweet morsel that's devoid of any jokes about bee farts and poop.
- 50L.A. WeeklyL.A. WeeklyFor all the muscle and money behind Bee Movie, it still feels unfocused and unfinished.
- 50Christian Science MonitorPeter RainerChristian Science MonitorPeter RainerBest viewed as an oddball career move rather than as a successful movie.
