I should have shared this review sooner. We saw the movie a few weeks ago and enjoyed it. In some ways it is mindless fun. I think that the hero (Griffin Keyes) would have been a babbling idiot for many days when the animals started talking to him. Instead, he quickly accepts their unique ability and even allows the animals to teach him some things about dating rituals. He does care for the animals and is a good zookeeper though the movie occasionally seems to suggest that his job as a zookeeper is not as classy as other vocations. While pursuing Stephanie (a real "cougar") he discovers that he really loves Kate and his gorilla friend, Bernie, helps him get to her before she accepts a job in Africa. The movie's not going to win ay awards but it does have its moments of fun and humor. It's worth watching.
