Bee Movie (91 min)
Synopsis: Barry B. Benson may only be a bee, but he is destined for bigger things in life. Dissatisfied with being stuck working in the hive, Barry longs to be one of the cool “Pollen Jocks” because they get to fly out into the world, stopping only to smell the flowers, so to speak. He gets his wish, leaves the hive and is shocked to find out that humans have been stealing and eating the bees’ honey for centuries. Stung by the discovery, Barry sues the sticky-fingered humans and wins. Victory is sweet, that is until the ensuing chaos upsets the very balance of nature. Now it is up to Barry to get busy setting thing right and prove that even a little bee can spell big changes for the world.
