The second movie in the Yogi Movie Festival is “We Bought a Zoo”

Fun, fun, fun but I wish they had watched their language!

We Bought a Zoo was the third movie we saw over the holidays. It is a gentle movie about a guy with two kids, a moody teenage boy and a very cute little girl, who loses his wife, their mother and finds himself at loose ends. Trying to make a fresh start he looks for a new house out in the country and finds a house and along with the house a private zoo complete with staff of fun characters.

So not knowing a thing about  he plunges in and before he knows finds himself almost buried alive financially and emotionally under his new burden. I’ll let you guess the rest.

I liked the movie, it kind of markets itself as a family movie but the language is a little rough at times. SuperPizzaBoy muttered loudly several times about why there was so much cussing.

Still, all in all not a bad move. I give it three stars out of five. Go see it.
