It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Francene Odetta
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

"The Zookeeper" is hardly anything else than copy of "Dr.Dollittle". The plot is unimaginative. The animals aren't either interesting or cute. The story is predictable and the jokes are lame.The acting isn't anything special. Kevin James has always been a poor man's John Candy, at least for me. There is impressive supporting voice cast here : Sylvester Stallone , Nick Nolte , Cher , Adam Sandler , Judd Apatow and Jon Favreau . They did OK , but that's it.The only reason I saw this lame comedy was because Sylvester Stallone in it. I'm on a mission to watch every movie he made (with the exception of the infamous porn movie "Party at Kitty and Stud"). I'm always wondering why someone with an obvious sense of humor like Sly keeps appearing in bad comedies like this one. I guess I will never know. I give it 1/10.

I will rate this 10.... not because it is the biggest movie of all time or even close to anything such....But within the criteria for what makes a good family movie I think it ticks all the boxes And animals that can speak, well I just love it same at 42 years old as when I was 5. Yes, so I am easy to entertain in that way.I think the story was cute and had romantic potential to also entertain me and my girlfriend all together.Story good, good acting, funny speaking animalsNot often I rate a movie 10 but I was very entertained

I'll start by saying I love movies. My philosophy is, if a movie entertains on any level, even unintentionally sometimes, it has achieved what it set out to do. That being said, this is not a very good film at all. I'm not a massive fan of Kevin James, although I did quite like him in Here Comes The Boom. This is an pleasant enough film and OK for family viewing on a very very wet afternoon. The storyline is very predictable. In fact there are yet to be discovered tribes if Africa who could have predicted the story line. The acting is forced and not believable. The jokes are not funny. The only real thing it's got going for it are the talking animals. Amusingly voiced by the likes of Nick Nolte, Stallone, Cher, Jon Favreau, Don Rickles etc. But that's about it. I'm not saying this is a bad movie, just not a good movie either. If you want to see a better movie about a Zoo maybe hire We Bought a Zoo instead.

Watching this monstrosity of a movie i actually felt dumber. I had seen the trailers prior to watching the film, and i admit i went in with low expectations. But I left extremely disappointed. The story line seemed to have died about 5 minutes into the film, From what i assume this movie is intended for and age group of 3-6 years of age. The unfortunate thing is that even for someone of that age there is literally no humor in the entire film. It's like if you made a movie all about fart jokes, and keep it going for and hour and thirty minutes. Why was this movie necessary, The characters are forgettable, the storyline is flat, all aspects considered the movie is plain god awful.
