Un mondo in pericolo

This film has a very rare 100% rating on 'Rotten Tomatoes' (just for comparison, 'Gravity' has 97%), which is one of the reasons I wanted to check it out. Another reason would be that it was recommended to me by people who are normally more into films like 'Die Hard' or 'Starship Troopers'. Now, having seen the movie, I can clearly see why that is.

This beautiful documentary has a lot more to offer than just information (as interesting, disturbing and educating said information definitely is); what you get here is also great, cinematic entertainment. There are characters in this film - the old beekeeper, for instance - which made me laugh out loud, and then there are moments of such breathtaking beauty I nearly cried.

And the cinematography - wow; just: wow! I don't know how they got to film the bees so close; if it was done with CGI or other computer tricks, the effects would certainly be Oscar-worthy. As far as I'm concerned, this masterpiece can compete with anything in the 'blockbuster' category that Hollywood has put out recently.

Great, informative entertainment and a visual feast, this film will make you see bees with different eyes. My vote: 10 out of 10.

If you don't get the "noughties" reference, there was a song. Actually there are more than one song referring to Honey, as in spouse or at least girlfriend. But we are talking about actual honey here. And the movie has some devastating blows to deliver. It is also about the bees and the way we are treating them.

A very interesting and intriguing documentary, it shows that sometimes they have more to offer than fiction movies. Not to mention that they should affect us more. Hopefully it will also take away the fear of bees many of us have, but I do doubt that. Bees should be more afraid of us actually. Watch this fantastic movie, that is heartbreaking too

More than Honey is a must see for every one. It should be shown in all schools and universities. This documentation contains many information about the secrets of the bees. The danger of their existence is told in a good comprehensive way. Then the shootings with the macro camera are unique what I never saw before. The worldwide research on the greatest continents is well studied and executed. The director created a very interesting movie that was never boring. At the end the audience can imagine itself the cause of the mass death of these wonderful and indispensable insects for our humanity. I hope we all are responsible about the possible consequences of the nature. Final rate: 6.5/10.

A great example of how societies, in particular the largest abusive industrialized one, has removed themselves from the natural ecosystem and with total disrespect for that system which they are destroying. I can only assume how difficult it was to do this documentary and congratulate all involved. I have said for decades how we are like the snake eating its' own tail thus devouring itself and taking along with it nature, the innocent and the provider.

This film portrays another example of the cost of factory farms. The facts are presented without judgment. It seemed to me that the bees are defending themselves against the manipulation of their perfectly organized society. One wonders why we humans think we know better when our own societies are totally out of sync with each other and the earth. Now I understand why vegans do not eat honey. I did not realize how much work the bees have to do in order to make their perfect food. The photography is wonderful and the story is gripping so I recommend it highly. I think everyone should see this documentary so we might have more respect for the way we harvest honey. I admit that I am old and grumpy but this film really made me feel sad. I am glad I saw it and am grateful for the enlightenment.
