   Critics consensus Bee Season is an intelligent, but frustratingly distant and diffuse drama about family dysfunction. More reviews on Rotten Tomatoes

1. • • Not at all a fictionalized version of the cheery documentary Spellbound, Bee Season is actually an unwieldy opus of family dysfunction, deep religious yearning, and kleptomania, full of kaleidoscopes, wind chimes and Hare Krishnas. If this sounds just weird enough to be great, it isn't.

   Is Bee Season a good movie?

   • Bee Season is a well-intentioned film that tackles an important subject but ultimately fails to fully explore the depth of its characters or the true meaning of its message, and I found its suggestion that a family can love God but not each other to be incongruous. 56 out of 65 found this helpful.

   Is Bee Season a good family drama?

Passing through the class competition and continuing onto the school bee, she surprises both herself and her brother, Aaron (Max Minghella), by taking first prize and moving on to districts.

   Is Bee Season A melodrama?

   • rating: 3.5 out of 4 At first glance, Bee Season seems to be just another clichéd family melodrama waltzing its way into your multiplex. But please, please, please give this film a chance.
