We bought tickets to a crappy movie, and boy do we regret it!

Nice movie, I like the challenge that main actor had to be a good dad. Good job and sweet to go see with girlfriend.

Such an adorable movie. I am an animal lover, and one of my favourite things to do in the summer is visit the zoo! The little girl is also the cutest little thing!

quite an interesting movie based on a true story. i don't think i could have endured handling a 'zoo' as a home. i enjoyed it.

would make a great double-bill with kevin james' zookeeper.

i did not expect to cry and laugh and be inspired, but i was. it had all the ingredients to make a cheeseball movie. what we got was a classic. well done.
