Ia adalah gadis berkulit hitam yang tinggal di Los Angeles, Amerika. Film ini berkisah tentang perlombaan yang bergengsi di Amerika, yaitu spelling bee lomba mengeja. Bagi anak-anak di Amerika, menjadi salah satu peserta lomba mengeja adalah hal yang membangggakan. Pasalnya tidak semua anak di Amerika bisa mengikuti lomba ini. Butuh tahap-tahap menuju lomba mengeja tingkat nasional. Mulai dari seleksi di sekolah masing-masing, tingkat regional, dan baru bisa mengikuti lomba di tingkat nasional. Seberapa banyak kata dalam bahasa Inggris yang bisa kamu eja dengan baik? Dalam perlombaan Spelling bee, peserta diminta mengeja kata-kata yang sulit, dan jarang diketahui banyak orang. Misalnya xylem, psychologies, dan sebagainya. Kata-kata tersebut tidak hanya berasal dari akarnya yaitu Inggris. Melainkan banyak kata yang berasal dari bahasa Latin, Yunani, dan lainnya. Akeelah bisa dikatakan sebagai seorang anak kulit hitam yang cerdas. Ia merupakan siswa yang cerdas di sekolahnya. Walaupun sekolah tersebut bukanlah sekolah favorit, tetapi Akeelah mampu tumbuh menjadi siswa yang pintar terutama dalam mata pelajaran bahasa Inggris. Melihat kepintaran Akeelah, seorang gurunya meminta Akeelah untuk ikut lomba mengeja. Awalnya, Akeelah menolak permintaan dari gurunya. Alasannya karena ia menilai tidak mampu untuk ikut lomba berkelas seperti itu. Dalam kutipan dialog filmnya, Akeelah menyatakan bahwa ia bisa kencing berdiri kalau ditonton banyak orang. Akan tetapi, sejak ia melihat acara lomba tersebut di tv, ia tertarik dan memiliki keyakinan untuk ikut lomba mengeja. Inspirator utama Akeelah adalah papanya. Setiap kali ia memiliki masalah, maka ia akan memandang wajah papanya, dan ia merasa tenang. Seorang gurunya memperkenalkan Akeelah dengan seorang pelatih mengeja yang bernama Dr. Joshua Larabee. Akeelah berlatih dengan baik, dan pada akhirnya ia bisa lolos mewakili sekolahnya untuk ikut lomba mengeja tingkat regional. Ketika Akeelah mengikuti lomba mengeja tingkat regional, ia nyaris tidak bisa lolos ke babak selanjutnya lantaran tidak bisa mengeja satu kata. Akan tetapi, keberuntungan ternyata berpihak kepada Akeelah. Salah satu peserta didiskualifikasi karena ketahuan curang. Menuju lomba mengeja tingkat nasional tidaklah mudah. Banyak sekali hambatan yang harus dihadapi Akeelah. Ibunya tidak mengizinkan Akeelah ikut lomba ini karena Akeelah harus menyelesaikan ketertinggalan pelajaran pada musim panas. Sempat Akeelah menyerah, dan putus asa. Ketakutan terdalam kita adalah bukan karena kita tidak cakap. Kekuatan kita dalam mengukur. Kita bertanya pada diri kita sendiri siapa aku sehingga aku cerdas, hebat, berbakat, dan menakjubkan? Sebenarnya, siapa sebenarnya dirimu? Kita dilahirkan untuk membuat manifestasi. Kemuliaan Tuhan dalam diri kita. Dan begitu kita biarkan cahaya menyala, kita tanpa sadar berikan orang lain kesempatan untuk lakukan hal yang sama. Ketakutan itu ada dalam diri kita sendiri. Rangkaian kata yang ditunjukkan Dr. Larabee mampu membuat Akeelah yakin dengan kemampuan yang ia miliki. Sekarang, ia yakin bisa memenangi lomba mengeja di tingkat nasional. Akeelah berlatih sungguh-sungguh dengan Dr. Larabee. Bahkan, ia berlatih dengan grup mengeja di sekolah Javier yang jauh dari sekolahnya. Ia bertemu dengan teman-teman Javier, dan bertemu dengan Dyland Chiu. Dyland adalah seorang anak keturunan Korea yang memiliki otak yang cerdas. Ia menjadi juara kedua pada lomba mengeja di tingkat nasional pada tahun lalu. Perlombaan mengeja tingkat nasional sebentar lagi. Akan tetapi, Dr. Larabee tidak bisa jadi lagi menjadi pembimbing Akeelah. Dr. Larebee meminta Akeelah menghapal 5000 kata. Akeelah belajar mengeja dengan orang-orang yang ada di sekitarnya. Ketika perlombaan nasional berlangsung, Akeelah harus menyisihkan Dylan sebagai peserta tangguh yang menjadi juara kedua pada tahun lalu. Konflik mulai memuncak ketika Akeelah mengetahui bahwa Dyland sering ditekan oleh papanya agar bisa menjadi juara pada lomba mengeja tahun ini. Suasana semakin menegang. Pada akhirnya, Akeelah dan Dylan menjadi juara satu lomba mengeja tingkat nasional. Ada kata-kata yang sangat menginspirasi saya dalam novel ini. Kata-kata ini diucapkan Akeelah di akhir cerita. “Kau tahu perasaan dimana semuanya berjalan dengan baik? Dimana kau tidak perlu kuatir dengan hari esok, atau kemarin. Tapi kau merasa aman dan tahu. Kau melakukan yang terbaik kau bisa? Ada kata untuk perasaan itu. Kata itu disebut L-O-V-E. Dalam novel dan film Akeelah and The Bee banyak sekali pesan yang sangat inspiratif. Ketakutan yang terbesar itu ada dalam hidup kita adalah diri kita sendir. Menurut saya, novel dan film ini sangat inspiratif. Mengajarkan kita pentingnya keyakinan dalam diri kita, bahwa kita mampu melakukan yang terbaik dalam hidup kita. Lingkungan kita, dan semua orang yang ada di dekat kita bisa menjadi motivator untuk kita. Jadi? Jangan takut melakukan hal yang terbaik. “Akeelah and The Bee adalah suatu karya yang dialih wahanakan dari film ke novel. Alih wahana tersebut disebut dengan novelisasi. Jika saya bandingkan, terdapat beberapa kelebihan dan kekurangan antara film dan novel Akeelah and The Bee. Jika saya bandingkan, film Akeelah and The Bee lebih bagus dibandingkan novelnya. Alasannya karena dalam film ini secara jelas kita bisa melihat kejadian yang utuh dalam kisah Akeelah. Baik itu karakter tokoh, alur cerita, dan pesan yang ingin disampaikan penulis naskah. Saya sebagai penonton bisa memahami konflik yang terjadi dalam filmnya, dan bisa merasakan kesenangan, kegembiraan, kesedihan, dan kebahagiaan yang dialami oleh Akeelah. Sedangkan pada novelnya, saya kurang bisa memvisulisasikan dengan jelas setiap rangkaian cerita yang dialami Akeelah. Tetapi kelebihannya, dalam novel Akeelah and The Bee alur cerita dijelaskan secara mendetail. Tapi tak jarang, dalam novelnya, diselipkan potongan-potongan foto dalam film. Setidaknya, ada kelebihan dan kekurangan yang ada di novel dan film Akeela and The Bee Tapi yang jelas, kedua karya tersebut sangat inspiratif untuk kita pembaca dan penonton. ReviewsAkeelah. A-k-e-e-l-a-h. Akeelah Akeelah Keke Palmer, left and Georgia Sahara Garey, center in "Akeelah and the Bee." Akeelah Anderson can spell. She can spell better than anyone in her school in South Central Los Angeles, and she might have a chance at the nationals. Who can say? She sees the National Spelling Bee on ESPN and is intrigued. But she is also wary, because in her school there is danger in being labeled a "brainiac," and it's wiser to keep your smarts to yourself. This is a tragedy in some predominantly black schools Excellence is punished by the other students, possibly as an expression of their own low self-esteem. The thing with Akeelah Keke Palmer is that she can spell, whether she wants to or not. Beating time with her hand against her thigh as sort of a metronome, she cranks out the letters and arrives triumphantly at the words. No, she doesn't have a photographic memory, nor is she channeling the occult as the heroine of "Bee Season" just a good story of Akeelah's ascent to the finals of the National Spelling Bee makes an uncommonly good movie, entertaining and actually inspirational, and with a few tears along the way. Her real chance at national success comes after a reluctant English professor agrees to act as her coach. This is Dr. Joshua Larabee Laurence Fishburne, on a leave of absence after the death of his daughter. Coaching her is a way out of his own shell. And for Fishburne, it's a reminder of his work in "Searching for Bobby Fischer" 1993, another movie where he coached a is mocked not only at school. Her own mother is against her. Tanya Anderson Angela Bassett has issues after the death of her husband, and values Akeelah's homework above all else, including silly afterschool activities like spelling bees. Akeelah practices in secret, and after she wins a few bees even the tough kids in the neighborhood start cheering for Palmer, a young Chicago actress whose first role was as Queen Latifah's niece in "Barbershop 2," becomes an important young star with this movie. It puts her in Dakota Fanning and Flora Cross territory, and there's something about her poise and self-possession that hints she will grow up to be a considerable actress. The movie depends on her, and she deserves its far I imagine "Akeelah and the Bee" sounds like a nice but fairly conventional movie. What makes it transcend the material is the way she relates to the professor, and to two fellow contestants a Mexican-American named Javier Villarreal and an Asian American named Dylan Sean Michael Afable. Javier, who lives with his family in the upscale Woodland Hills neighborhood, invites Akeelah to his birthday party unaware of what a long bus trip it involves. Dylan, driven by an obsessive father, treats the spelling bee like life-and-death, and takes no hostages. Hearing his father berate him, Akeelah feels an instinctive sympathy. And as for Javier's feelings for Akeelah, at his party, he impulsively kisses her. "Why'd you do that?" she asks him."I had an impulse. Are you gonna sue me for sexual harassment?"The sessions between Akeelah and the professor are crucial to the film, because he is teaching her not only strategy but how to be willing to win. No, he doesn't use self-help cliches. He is demanding, uncompromising, and he tells her again and again "Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure." This quote, often attributed to Nelson Mandela, is actually from Marianne Williamson, but no less true for Akeelah the movie does not attribute it.Now I am going to start dancing around the plot. Something happens during the finals of the National Bee that you are not going to see coming, and it may move you as deeply as it did me. I've often said it's not sadness that touches me the most in a movie, but goodness. Under enormous pressure, at a crucial moment, Akeelah does something good. Its results I will leave you to discover. What is ingenious about the plot construction of writer-director Doug Atchison is that he creates this moment so that we understand what's happening, but there's no way to say for sure. Even the judges sense or suspect something. But Akeelah, improvising in the moment and out of her heart, makes it air-tight. There is only one person who absolutely must understand what she is doing, and why - and he ending answers one of my problems with spelling bees, and spelling bee movies. It removes winning as the only objective. Vince Lombardi was dead wrong when he said, "Winning isn't everything. It's the only thing" a quote, by the way, first said not by Lombardi but in the 1930s by UCLA coach Henry "Red" Sanders - but since everybody thinks Lombardi said it, he won, I guess. The saying is mistaken because to win for the wrong reason or in the wrong way is to lose. Something called sportsmanship is our winning-obsessed culture, it is inspiring to see a young woman like Akeelah Anderson instinctively understand, with empathy and generosity, that doing the right thing involves more than winning. That's what makes the film particularly valuable for young audiences. I don't care if they leave the theater wanting to spell better, but if they have learned from Akeelah, they will want to live better.

What you will—and won't—find in this movie. Where to Watch Videos and Photos Parents say 29 Kids say 48 age 9+ Based on 29 parent reviews March 17, 2023 Outstanding movie, with lots of motivation. Akeelah and the Bee is one of the best movies I have ever watched in my life, the pacing, energy and motivation was without doubt excellent. The movie started with an 11-year-old Afro American girl who lost her father to a murder at the age of six but the memory of playing a game with him called scramble has really instil in her the exceptional ability to recognize words and spell them , struggling through different pressure from bullies and her bother who was an hooligan and her traumatized mother were factors that reduced herself- esteem. She was an highly intelligent, low self esteem student who was bullied at school, she went through it all and was fortunate to meet a coach, Mr Larabee, who also had a tragic past, but an exceptional Doctor who helped to bring the best out of her, she struggled with her new face of life with competitions and other white kids but she proved the bullies wrong, she made a reality that the trauma and tragic past might persist but success can be attained, this movie is a compilation hardwork, perseverance, diligence and inspiration to those who a struggling with bullies and need help. It also shows that intelligence has to be guided and properly pruned to result in excellence, because even though she was intelligent she had to go under teaching and proper tutelage to become exceptional, The movie shows love and community support, her community were very awesome at supporting her training, I also appreciate how her school teacher and principle encouraged her to participate in the spelling bee, even though she was reluctant at first. To the last ending part which was the competition, it shows the importance of hardwork and teamwork, and a union and unity between black children and the white, it was a very exciting moment for me when I discovered, the tie was possible and both kids made it to the final round and they were both winners. Akeelah and the bee was a well balanced movie with, little humour, excitement, suspense and motivation, the only moment I thought they might have changed was when there was a kiss on the cheek, it might not be of acceptance to some parents, but a very fantastic movie overall. For this movie, I will vehemently recommend it to children, teenagers and adults who really movies that are made not just for entertainment this is a movie that expresses core values, determination, diligence, inspiration and the power of mentor-ship and guidance, It shows that success can be achieved even though, there might be some tragic background and events in our life. 1 person found this helpful.

AKEELAH AND THE BEE traces the delicate, courageous process of a little girl's growing up. Akeelah Keke Palmer is a resolute 11-year-old with a gift for spelling. Trying to fit in with her classmates at a middle school in Los Angeles' Crenshaw district, she misses her father who was killed by gun violence when she was 6 and doesn't see enough of her hardworking mother, Tanya Angela Bassett. After Akeelah wins a class-wide bee, her principal Curtis Armstrong decides that she should compete He wants to promote the school, but he's also drawn to the earnestness of this brilliant girl who isn't being challenged enough by her underfunded school system. With the help of imposing professor Dr. Larabee Laurence Fishburne and her new friend, Javier Villarreal, Akeelah faces off against rival Dylan Chu Sean Michael Afable on their journey to becoming Scripps National Spelling Bee champions. Is It Any Good? In large part, this film's delights have to do with Palmer's winning performance, most apparent in one-on-one scenes with her mom or coach. But Akeelah and the Bee also has something else going on Embracing the conventions that make so many other genre films feel stale, director Doug Atchison tweaks them slightly with fun details, such as the way Akeelah taps out letters on her thigh with her fingers or sees the letters in her head as she jumps rope. Overall, the film's earnest messages of perseverance and sportsmanship are hard to refute. And feel-good scenes of a low-income neighborhood rallying around a prodigal daughter make this a charming watch. Akeelah and the Bee may be too familiar of a sports narrative - and too shallow to offer any real commentary on how Black children can thrive in an underfunded public school system - but it does deliver a heaping dose of "Black girl magic" for older kids and tweens.
