The previews and commercials for this make it look absolutely terrible. If it's not, why would they make those commercials?

I would assume because of the surprise mentioned in the review.

However, telling me there's an awesome surprise that I have to wait for... i'm sorry. Ookla's right in this respect: the advertising seemed designed specifically to convince me to skip it and not even watch it on DVD.

The surprise plot, which it isn't because all the movie sites have been talking about it for months, is the movie is about Bees suing humans over them stealing the honey.

The reason the marketing doesn't mention this is because they're targeting kids who wouldn't get this joke, or at least the marketers seam to think they won't.
