Zookeeper (2011) is one of the funniest, cutest talking animal movies I have seen in a while. A whole lot better than Furry Vengeance (2010) Ugh, what a dud. Anyway, back to Zookeeper. Kevin James (King of Queens, Paul Blart: Mall Cop, Hitch) is the Zookeeper. I know the critics didn’t like this movie, I even read recently that it made a worst movie of the year list. It was predictable and silly but that is not always a bad thing.
One of the things I liked about Zookeeper was how clean it was. Yes it had a few potty jokes. I am not sure why the wolf had to teach Kevin about marking his territory but, whatever. It really was a clean, funny movie. Zookeeper is a Happy Madison production, Happy Madison is Adam Sandler's (50 First Dates, Happy Gilmore, Big Daddy) company. Part of what makes a good talking animal movie is having good voices for the animals, obviously. The animals in this one where great! They almost upstaged poor Kevin. They were all so funny! With the voice talents of Nick Nolte, Adam Sandler, Sylvester Stallone and Jon Favreau, just to name a few, Zookeeper is pretty entertaining.
