Review of We Bought a Zoo (2011) by James M — 14 Jan 2014
A sweet, easygoing comedy-drama about a widower who buys a zoo and relocates his 14-year-old son and young daughter to the run-down park where he faces financial ruin trying to bring it up to standard.
Based on a true story, it's clear to see what scenes have been romanced up for dramatic effect. Nevertheless, it's a good family film with good performances from Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson and the juveniles.
