Overall, I didn't know where the movie was going and it had a decent ending, but the movie as a whole was not good. 9:15PM PT

Barry B. Benson (Jerry Seinfeld)

[20171215 Edit]

As of 20171215, Netflix determined the movie for me as a 86% match. I decided to give the movie neither a thumbs up nor a thumbs down - though perhaps it sits right on the border between that and thumbs down.

Instant Comments:
2b: Resumed the movie (right before they get in line to choose jobs)
2b: I guess this pool scene is a reference to The Graduate
1: Chris Rock.
1: Larry King.
2: Smile. He points out there's also a human Larry King, including the quotes below of things just said.

Adam Flayman (Matthew Broderick)

1: Barry makes fun of the similarity [20220115: presumably this comment is in regard to to Larry King and Bee Larry King].
1: "Why is yogurt night so difficult!?" - Ken
1: Sting and Ray Liotta.
2b: Not how pollination works. [Pollination allows plants to reproduce. But admittedly that's a difficult concept to convey in a kid's movie. Conceptually it is true that without pollinators, the result will be less and less plants.]

Ken (Patrick Warburton)

1: Lol. Movie magic: the landing.
2b: The cow asks, "He is a lawyer, too?" Moooseblood replies, "I was already a bloodsucking parasite. All I needed was a briefcase!"
