The Secret Life of Bees

I really enjoyed the novel this film is based on. I was annoyed right away by trailers ruining the endings yet again. Seriously Hollywood, the film should be able to stand on it's first half hour being shown in the trailers. Leave the good stuff for when yuo go to see it.

With that being said I think the film did a fine job bringing the book to the big screen. It's not perfect and while the acting is good I felt the musical bits were forced for the sake of whatever her name is from American Idol.

I don't know what else to say. It's a total chick flick about coming to terms and blah blah blah. Nice date movie and I'd recommend a video rental if nothing else.

Entertainment Value - 3/5

Movie - 3.5 /5
