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.

Directed by Marcus Imhoof, "More than Honey" attempts an investigation into our world's dwindling bee population. Not as interesting as the similarly themed "Vanishing of the Bees", Imhoof's film nevertheless does well to stress the importance of bees - an integral part of our ecosystem - to the survival of the human race."More than Honey" focuses on two beekeepers: Fred Jaggi, who lives in Switzerland, and John Miller, a Florida businessman. Both men adopt difficult approaches, Jaggi a traditionalist, Miller a hard-headed capitalist who lends his personal bee colonies to farms in need of pollination. Interviews with both occasionally give way to discussions with scientists and other beekeepers. Other subplots deal with bees being injected with hormones and pesticides, with parasitic mites penetrating bee colonies and with the many Chinese farmers forced to manually pollinate their crops. The film ends with surreal shots of bees flying off into outer space, suggestive of humanity's cosmic connection with even the smallest of organisms. Or perhaps the bees are simply abandoning us, finally ticked off with what we've forced them to endure.8/10 – Worth one viewing.

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.

This movie is like honey to your visual senses. With picturesque Switzerland in the background, it is shown how bees were kept in the past. And how nowadays massive commercial beekeeping takes place in North America. Like a traveling circus, the bees are shipped from one place to the next to pollinate flowers of various fruits and nuts with total disrespect. You can't help pity the poor creatures, as their owners can only think of money, and have no love.This movie is a cinematographic masterpiece that tells you about the crises the bees are currently in. Colonies collapse without a clear reason. Like with the bio-industry, it makes you think that this is not the way to treat other animals, even if they are insects. Colony collapse? I think it's just the bees way of going on strike.
