(Running time: 104 Minutes) Rated PG
Starring Kevin James, Rosario Dawson, Leslie Bibb
Griffin (James) is a sweet man, a gentle soul who is a terrific zookeeper because he genuinely cares for the animals. He’s in love with a shallow beauty, Stephanie (Bibb). He proposes and she shoots him down. Five years later, Griffin, shy with women, is still carrying a torch for her.
Meanwhile at the zoo, the animals love Griffin and when they see he may leave the zoo, they get together to help him get Stephanie back. When he discovers the animals can talk, Griffin flips out at first, and then gets into it. The scene where he dresses up the gorilla and takes him out to dinner with him is pretty outrageous, but I laughed anyway.
We all know Griffin is barking up the wrong tree with Stephanie, but he has to find out for himself, which he does by the end of the movie.
While this is a fairly pedestrian plot, the talking animals, their rapport with Griffin and the physical comedy are cute, funny and entertaining. The messages are good about being true to yourself, feeling good about who you are, even if your job is not the most glamorous or highest paying. There is a little violence, no sex and no bad language. Zookeeper is a fun movie to see with your kids 9 and up who can understand the rivalry over a pretty girl.
