About This Movie

So, 'Zookeeper' is this lighthearted mix of comedy and romance with a family touch, directed by Frank Coraci. Kevin James plays Griffin, a guy who's more at ease with animals than actually dating women. The premise is kind of silly but charming, with the zoo animals talking to him, giving him advice. The pacing is generally smooth, though it does hit some predictable beats. The CGI isn't groundbreaking but adds a fun layer. It’s got a decent ensemble cast including Rosario Dawson and Leslie Bibb, and while it won’t win any awards, it’s got a nice warmth to it. It’s more about the laugh-out-loud moments than deep themes, really an easy watch for a family gathering.

Released on July 8, 2011, by Sony Pictures.Runtime is 102 minutes with a PG rating.Filmed primarily at Franklin Park Zoo in Boston.Features a mix of live-action and CGI for animal characters.
