  • Bee Movie Talent: Jerry Seinfeld, Renee
    Bee Movie Talent: Jerry Seinfeld, Renee Zellweger, Matthew Broderick, Patrick Warburton, Barry Levinson, Chris Rock, Ray Liotta, Sting. Date of review: Thursday 6th December, 2007 Director: Steve Hickner and Simon Smith Duration: 87 minutes Classification: G We rate it: 2 and a half stars. It’s very clear that the Christmas holidays are on their way: we’ve got the first of the season’s family films, here in the shape of the “computer-animated comedy voiced by Hollywood royalty” - Bee Movie. The film has been co-written, produced and graced with a central vocal performance by Jerry Seinfeld, the man who made a genuine fortune as star of his own legendary sitcom and who has been far from the limelight for quite some time. Seinfeld was clearly the primary creative force behind this production, and one can see numerous aspects of his personal stamp in the finished film. As it was for Seinfeld’s sitcom, the setting for Bee Movie is New York City (and though much of the action takes place within numerous bee hives, the “wider world” is the world of New York); many of the characters are of the “workaday schmuck” type that peopled Seinfeld, and the film’s humour is as strongly based on the quirks of interpersonal communication as was the TV show. There is much that makes Bee Movie its own, however; much script-time is spent making puns on bee behaviour and lifestyle, and the story, such as it is, takes in both career frustration and a David vs. Goliath story of worker exploitation.
