Review of Zookeeper (2011) by Jacob C — 26 Sep 2015
Not altogether rotten, but it lacks originality and chemistry between it's leads. Kevin James is fine as the bumbling zookeeper, but add Rosario Dawson to the mix and it feels like tuna and marshmallows: it just doesn't meld.
It's kinda cute anyhow. The film's true saving grace is the voice talents of the many celebrities as the zoo animals. Maya Rudolf, Adam Sandler & Sylvestor Stallone are great voice-overs. Of course the best voice talent is Cher as the lioness.
Cinema has missed Cher. Let's hope her next film is not one like this (or a bit better than "Burlesque" for that matter)...
