Zookeeper (2011)
Mild crude humour
In Zookeeper, the animals at the Franklin Park Zoo love their kind-hearted caretaker, Griffin Keyes (Kevin James). Finding himself more comfortable with a lion than a lady, Griffin decides the only way to get a girl in his life is to leave the zoo and find a more glamorous job. The animals, in a panic, decide to break their time-honoured code of silence and reveal their biggest secret: they can talk! To keep Griffin from leaving, they decide to teach him the rules of courtship – animal style.

A great family movie with good laughs

Expect a fun light hearted movie the whole family can enjoy with no bad language or violence .
My partner who's 67yrs enjoyed this more than me.

Good family fare, standard plot and the usual trite and shallow female characters but a few giggles here and there.

Words that come to mind for this movie - cute, silly, fun. Not terribly original but overall I thought it was good fun with some laughs.
macmillan

Initially found this funny but it became tiresome once the animals started organising his love life
Jeanine
says
Like the movie, the zookeeper plays good in movies, not just on TV
Mel
says

ben
says
hadnt bothered watcing to much of it
Otto
says
"Night at the Museum" meets "Dr Doolittle", with a bit of "Hitch" thrown in for good measure. Very corny. Kids will like it.
Jacqueline
says
Better than I expected - some very funny scenes

diane

awesome movie so funny kevin james at his best big kevin james fan loved it must see
Lee
says
We really enjoyed this movie, really sweet and didn't have to resort to gutter antics and nudity to get a laugh. The animals were very well done. The Asian guy from The Hangover was in this but unfortunately he was wasted, def wasn't used enough.
Penny

Great family movie a definate must see
Purplesue
says
To me, this was quite a silly movie. I was tempted to turn the movie off a few times, up until about half way thru. Anyway, stuck with it & it finally came good. Animals were cute & the gorilla was very well done. I like Ken James but thought this a bit silly, even for him. About two & a half stars really.
Yvette
says
Was expecting it to be better
Karen
says
Funny movie
Kids loved it and there were some bits for the adults as well
Kristina
says
Not too sure about this one. It was funny in places but more in a slapstick way. I cant say I was very fussed on it and wouldnt watch it again but it is ok if you like this sort of comedy.
MAR
says
Mildly entertaining. Clever technical effects with the animals.
Jim
says
Not bad - effects generally work, except for when the bears are educating him (when it didn't look like they were real). Story was fun. Our 10 year olds enjoyed it.
peta
says
I was a little disappointed with this film. It wasn't as funny as I was expecting but nevertheless it was enjoyable viewing with a few good laughs. The voices of some of the animals are well recognised as Cher and Stalone. The Gorilla definitely makes this movie worth watching.
Diane
says
What a great movie. Lots of laughs and heartstring pulling. Thoroughly enjoyable.
Liza
says
Pretty silly.
Jen H

Roni J
says
Very enjoyable, Dad and kids!!
Shellyd
says
Very predictable and far fetched storyline, but I watched it all and had a few laughs along the way. Would not rate it as one of the better movies I've seen but good for family viewing.
Deb R
says
Good family entertainment. Maybe a little silly at times but we all had a few laughs together. Would love to adopt the monkey!
Lynn
says
Awful movie. One of the worst I have ever seen.
Pakman
says
Well I have been made aware by my better half that I was smiling my little peepers off throughout the movie....yes that would generally mean it was rather entertaining....question though........how does that fat dude always get the pretty chicks????? By the way throwing poop always fixes everything!!!!!!
Mandy
says
Funny. quite a few laughs.
Matthew B.
says
Not a bad film. Kids would like it. Kind of predictable and not as funny as hoped.
bek
says

Laura
says
Awesome movie. Not what i was expecting, but still very funny movie.
sheppy
says
best movie good for the whole family full of laughs
Lisa
says
Funny movie that the whole family enjoyed watching.
M
says
simple storyline. I watched this with a 9yr old - who rarely laughed out loud in it. I on the otherhand good caught up in picking Cher and Sylvester Stallone voicing the lions - who were equally funny. This movie did run a little too long - for both the 9yr old and myself. But overall ok as a school holidays movie.
Hayley
says
Hilarious feel good movie. Absolutely loved it, little predictable but one of those easy to watch movies.
joffa
