Review of We Bought a Zoo (2011) by Thomas P — 06 Jan 2016
For me, this movie had a few issues. I think the acting was really bad in some parts. It seemed as if there were a lot of edits done for the daughter's scenes because of her acting level. Which is completely understandable, but some parts were definitely cringe-worthy. And JB Smoove was just bad. Lastly, any portrayal of romantic relationships was pretty bad, outside of one moment that we'll come back to...
That being said, I thought this movie was really FUN. The daughter was adorable, and the son was fair and really looked like Damon in some shots. There were also some pretty humorous and cute moments that drew me back in. And about the point I'd get back to... If you find yourself asking the question "Why would I watch this movie?" I'd have to say "Why not?".
Great callback for a really awesome ending.
