I figured this would all hinge on how well I took the moment of the bee talking to the human. So I was surprised by how well I took that scene. Though the minor giggles continue to come throughout, it gets very stupid, very annoying, very fast – the kind of movie where I could see the stars dropping off the rating with almost precision timing. The celebrity name checks are particularly half-assed (“I can’t fly a plane!” “Isn’t John Travolta a pilot? How hard can it be?!” ugh, and I thought Scary Movie 4 was simple) I was a little weirded out by the message too, in a similar way I overthunk The Incredibles – like, this movie seems to be just saying “get in your place and do what you’re supposed to do.” I’m overly aware of both sides of everything, hence the domain I live at, so it pains me that I can see there’s a point in this message somewhere … but, ugh, really, leave it alone, especially in a kids’ movie. They really deserve better, and I’m even more glad now that this wasn’t nominated for an Oscar than I was before I saw it.
