Honey Just Got Funny "Bee Movie" chronicles the adventures of Barry B. Benson (Voiced by Jerry Seinfeld), a bee who has just graduated from college. Barry -- who had hoped for a life filled with excitement & adventure -- is somewhat disconcerted to learn that the only career choice that's currently open to him is the one that every bee must eventually embrace. And that's making honey.
But Barry's life takes an interesting turn one day when he's rescued by Vanessa (Voiced by Renee Zellweger), a human florist who lives in New York City. While he's in Vanessa's care, Barry learns humanity's dark secret. That they actually eat most of the honey that bees produce.
Seeing as humans haven't ever paid bees for their labors, Barry sees this arrangement as a real travesty of justice. Which is why -- with the help of his best friend, Adam (Who will be voiced by Matthew Broderick), Barry decides to sue humanity to recover all of that lost income.
