Review: Man Vs Bee, Netflix
I hesitated about reviewing Man Vs Bee. While I grew up loving Rowan Atkinson I'm grown up now and had decided his recent work was on the childish side. But as there has been something of a buzz about Man Vs Bee I thought I'd better take a look. Glad I did. It's excellent. And not just for kids.

Charlie Peters, Spiked, 21st June 2022Man Vs Bee review
The first scene tells viewers that the conflict between Trevor and the bee will escalate to even sillier heights. However, the soulless and predictable nature of the opening three episodes aren't enough to generate the buzz needed for audiences to stay engaged.
