About Bee Movie

Bee Movie is a 2007 American animated satirical comedy film directed by Simon J. Smith and Steve Hickner, and written by Jerry Seinfeld, Spike Feresten, Barry Marder, and Andy Robin. Produced by DreamWorks Animation, it stars Seinfeld and Renée Zellweger. The film centers on Barry B. Benson (Seinfeld), an anthropomorphic honey bee who tries to sue the human race for exploiting bees after learning from his new florist friend Vanessa Bloome (Zellweger) that humans sell and consume honey. Bee Movie premiered in New York City on October 25, 2007, and was released in theaters in the United States on November 2 by Paramount Pictures. The film grossed $293.5 million worldwide on a budget of $150 million, and received mixed reviews from critics, who praised its humor and voice cast but criticized its plot and screenplay. It has gained a cult following since its release, partly driven by internet memes of the film shared on social media, which lampoon its surreal premise, script and celebrity cameos.
