This is an excerpt from the Review of the Nintendo Wii game The Bee Movie Game by GamersInfo

I assumed that a game licensed from a kid’s movie would be a game (surprise) for kids; as it turned out, I was right, but not because of the game’s storyline or content. The Bee Movie Game is a kid’s game because it requires really, really good hand/eye coordination, not to mention the reflexes and flexible focus of a Jack Russell terrier. The games are not terribly complicated or difficult to understand; it’s just that they take full advantage of the Wii-mote’s capabilities. If you’re not skilled at moving, shooting and watching two to three places on the screen at the same time, some of the games can be brutal. I have a feeling I made it past one tutorial for a Pachinko-like game that involves collecting good honey in a bucket and shooting bad honey only because it was set up so that failure was nigh-impossible.

The Bee Movie Game should be very popular with kids, and adults may find a measure of enjoyment from the nostalgia factor in the minigames. Sadly, that loading screen issue, much like the final episode of “Seinfeld,” is both annoying and disappointing — the rest of the product proves that the team responsible could have done much better.
