The Secret Life of Bees Reviews

I'm dedicating this review to Ms. Meri because every time I saw the previews for this movie for some reason I would think of her because of all of her Burt's Bees products reviews.  Ms. Meri maybe you will add this bee product to your reviews too;+)

I'm not sure if there are enough words to describe just how wonderful this movie is.  I had some cousins come in from Maryland for the weekend and the girls decided we wanted to hang out for a while.  We opted for a movie and had to pick something that would be appropriate for my 12-year-old cousin Cheyenne to watch.  We figured that since Dakota...

My friends and I recently decided to have a Girl's Night Out and headed to the movies.  We decided upon the movie The Secret Life of Bees. 

I had read the book and highly suggested going to see the movie.  I loved the book and hoped that the movie would live up to the powerfulness of the book. 

The movie lived up to everything that the book was. 

I was drawn into the movie from the very beginning.  The poignant story was magically brought onto the screen by the wonderful actresses.

I would definitely recommend seeing this movie!!

I read the book first years before the movie myself. The book was a part of our city's 300th anniversary as a city wide reading program for adults. I cannot say whether or not it came off or not, but I hope so because the book was a good one.I have been noticing the book around, and decided that this was as good a time to read it which I did and found it an enjoyable read;  When I found out that the movie was coming out this past fall, I anxiously waited to see it, and took myself out one evening to do so. And though I found the film good, It stuck pretty close to the book itself; but was a bit...

This movie was very good. It had award winning actors such as Alicia Keys, Jennifer Hudson, Queen Latifah, & Dakota Fanning. Secret Life of Bees is a movie about a girl trying to find her place, to be in a place where she truly belongs. He father wasn't giving it to her so it was up to her to find out. I love this movie!!! Everytime I cry when watching a movie, it's because I find something in it that I can relate to: a character, a situation, a choice. I see myself in it and the tears don't wait to start coming down like rain. I like to cry when watching a movie, and it's always a sign that the...

The movie, "The Secret Life of Bees" did not receive a good review in our local paper.  I always read the reviews so that I have a starting point on assessing the movie. I usually do not let their opinions determine whether I watch the movie or not.  I like this movie.  It was about women helping women.  It was about family and the realities of life.  There were some sad moments but they were portrayed in a manner that could be viewed by anyone.  Some pictures are too graphic and are hard to watch.  With this picture, you got the point without all the graphics.  The acting was good. ...

The Secret Life of Bees is a heart warming story. It is well written and wonderfully acted.  A young girl who comes from an unhealthy dysfunctional family home is taken under the wing of and into a home of three independent women beekeepers. The women turn out to be a positive influence on her and an inspiration. Surprisingly, the young girl turns out to be the same for the three women.

This movie is a touching story that I think has a good message. Especially for women and young girls, but also men. This is an enjoyable movie if you like drama and good acting. It maybe considered a "chick-flick"...

 I have literally flipped past this movie more than 15 times and thought who cares about bees, never even read the info on it and then November 23 2009 there was absolutely nothing to watch so i scanned through channels 500 and up and ran across The Secret Life Of Bees yet once again and i really opened the info and never knew that dakota fanning played in it, and that alone made me wanna watch it cause she is just a great lil actress and when i watched it ima tell you i just balled my head off, i mean i cried like i was pregnant all over again. I Love how they come together in the movie and the...

I first read the book, The Secret Life of Bees, and loved it so much, that I had to watch the movie. They did a great job! This is a feel good movie that I highly recommend!

overview is about a little girl, Lily Owens, who  has shaped her entire life around one devastating memory - the day her mother was killed, when Lily was four. Since then, her only real companion has been the fierce-hearted black woman Rosaleen, who acts as her "stand-in-mother."

When Rosaleen insults three of the deepest racists in town, Lily knows it's time to spring them both free. When they are taken in by an eccentric...

This was an excellent movie to watch with the intire family. The strength, determination, struggles, joys, laughter, sorrow, pain, that all these Women endured throughout the entire movies shows what being strong and having faith is all about. Eventhough they had their differences they still reached out to a young girl and her maid to help them, guide them, show them, love them into knowing how to survive in this world no matter what or who stands in your way. I cried when the young man was taken and beaten up for liking a white girl. I am so glad that we have came out of those times. Every American...
