" The Ups: It is sweet. Matt Damon is solid in the lead. The Downs: Predictable plot. Annoying obvious ending. "

“We bought a zoo is an impressive story based on true event. It may also be tagged as we bought the dream, it is story of fight of a father to take out his kids out of the shock of the death of their mother. In order to escape from the memories of his dead wife he took his father to a new home, that is infact a zoo that needs to be revived to become a public zoo again. A good movie to watch.” read more
