Honestly, I had absolutely NO idea what to expect when coming into this movie. I had never seen the original anime series nor the revamp so I didn't know what it was about or what to expect. The only reason I saw it is because it was on Netflix and I was bored. What I received was actually a really cute, well thought out, adorable film. It's nice to see a movie that teaches the lesson that all you need is a positive outlook and you can do anything as well as there being no need for any sort of violence or death of the villain. (i am actually getting very sick of killing off villains as I have come to accept that as taking the lazy way out) Can the protagonist get a tad annoying with her rhetoric? Yeah, a little, but she later realizes what has been going on in her absence and she actually does have some character growth. I feel overall that this movie is incredibly underrated and needs more attention than it got. I enjoyed this far more than I thought I would and it's a film that people really need to see if they need a pick me up. Great job guys. 9/10.

If you enjoy comedy mixed with great animation, then you will love Maya the Bee Movie. Maya is unlike other young bees her age. Instead of following orders, Maya has a mind of her own. For example, instead of staying within the safety of the beehive, Maya decides to go off on her own to visit the surrounding meadow wish she became friends with Flip the grasshopper. At some point, Maya's curiosity led to her finding out that the Royal Adviser to the Queen Bee had stolen the Royal jelly saved especially for the Queen Bee which leads to the Royal Adviser's kicking Maya out of the beehive. At this point, Maya has to survive on her own in the meadow and is soon joined by her close friend Willy who fears for her safety and cannot let Maya be by herself in the mysterious meadow. Together, the two bees become friendly with a variety of other insects and other creatures. Eventually, Maya and Willie learn that the Royal Adviser has stolen the Queen's royal jelly because she was seeking to make war with the hornets. By the end of the movie, Maya, Willy, and their other young hornet friend Buzzy stop the Royal Adviser's evil plans and, after recapturing the royal jelly, bring it back to the Queen who then makes a complete recovery. For her efforts, Maya is appointed as the Hive Ambassador by the Queen Bee and she and Willy are made responsible for observing the meadow and reporting new friends that arrive. My favorite character in the movie is Maya (Coco Jack Gillies). Maya is easy to relate to for me because she is very much a free spirit, unable to sit still, who always wants to be in on the action. I also enjoyed hearing from Flip the grasshopper. Flip is always able to provide Maya with excellent advice such as telling her to always "bee positive." The scenery is also colorful and beautiful and will be enjoyed by everyone. My favorite part of the movie is when Maya and Willy are together out in the meadow attending the Jitterbug Hollow Musical Festival. There, they hear different insects playing a large number of musical instruments while Flip the grasshopper sings "It Don't Matter What They Say, Be Yourself Every Day." This film has many positive messages that apply to younger audiences. For me, the most powerful message of the movie s that a person should be himself and does not need to follow in the footsteps of others. The movie also show the strong bonds of loyalty between Maya and Willy who have to work together in order to stop the Royal Advisers' plans. I also enjoyed the lesson that young people can make a huge difference in this world. In the movie, many grown-up bees and grown-up hornets are prepared to fight to see who would gain control of the meadow. In the end, it is too young bees and one young hornet who save everybody from being destroyed. I give Maya the Bee Movie 5 out of 5 stars. It is a great family movie. I recommend it for ages 4 to 9. I'm 9 and I enjoyed watching this movie and very much appreciated its excellent messages and wonderful music. Maya the Bee Move opens in theaters May 1 and is available on DVD on May 18. It is well worth the cost of buying it for a fun- filled night of family entertainment. Reviewed by Adam C., KIDS FIRST! Film Critic. For more reviews by youth, go to kidsfirst dot org.

I saw this movie with my niece and nephew (2 and 4) and we all loved it! Great strong characters featured throughout although Arnie and Barnie were certainly my favourites getting a laugh out of most of the adults in the theatre. The pink dancing butterflies were a hit with my niece, who is always partial to some singing and dancing in a movie. It was wonderful to see an adventurous, courageous female protagonist with Maya, a great role model for little girls and a strong message for all kids. It was wonderful to hear all the Aussie accents of many well known Australian stars, they really made a solid contribution to the characters. Id recommend this movie for children anywhere from 2-5 yrs and their respective doting aunts :)

Queen's assistant is not nice, threatens life of queen. Hornets are nasty characters. All the workers should be female, the guards are male. Talking is too fast, visuals too fast. Don't recommend at all, but avoid completely for anyone under 7. Check out Room on the Broom, Stickman, The Gruffalo, The Gruffalo's Child, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Sarah and Duck, for young children.

I loved this film. The story was great, the characters were lovable and I thought the message of the film (be yourself and just because someone is different from you doesn't mean you can't be friends) was a great one for little kids. It never resorted to being too corny either which I appreciated. The voice actors did a great job and the whole cinema was laughing out loud in parts (the ant soldiers played by the umbilical brothers were particularly great). I even got a little teary near the end! A movie that is enjoyable for both kids and parents a like. I think the crew and the director did a fantastic job and I would recommend this to anyone with little ones in their life. Maya the bee is this year's Finding Nemo!

went to the cinema on Melbourne Cup day with my partner and our little girl. We couldn't wait for her to see her first film, especially after seeing Margaret (from David & Margaret) giving it 4 STARs, so dressed bub as a bumble bee we bought tix to Maya the Bee and were entertained 100% from beginning to end! It was a beautiful film, that ALL the viewers there, children AND parents were thrilled by the movie. Lovely story, and great message... but most importantly, the animation was stunningly appealing. So glad an Aussie animation didn't disappoint one bit... it's only a shame that it hasn't been given a good shot at the cinemas. I recommended it to my playgroup, but the cinemas weren't showing it on the days we could all go. WILL BE BUYING THE DVD!! MAYA THE BEE MOVIE is EXCELLENT!!!

Maya the Bee is an excellent role model for little girls and boys because she teaches everyone the importance of tolerance and the fact that it's OK to be different! What a great representation of the kind of soul we all wish to be. The Australian voices were very well played; it was really nice to hear an Australian accent for the main character. Plus Richard Roxburgh was super charming as the cockney grasshopper Flip. Jacquie Weaver clearly had a lot of fun playing the villain. Kids will get a kick out of this film and their parents and grandparents will love it too!

I thought this movie was absolutely adorable! The main character Maya was such a delightful protagonist with so much heart I couldn't help myself falling in love with her! Maya's voice actress Coco and all the voice actors did such an amazing job giving so much life to the characters! I think both adults and children can enjoy this film for all the witty dialogue and humour. I loved all the scenes with the ant duo and the scenes with the moth babies make me both laugh and cringe! I think this movie's message came across very strongly and effectively, friendship that can be born out of accepting others for their differences and being yourself. The animation, back ground and compositing were all beautiful too and I would recommend this film to everybody!
