Watched this movie last night and to my surprise...its really good.

Initially the title of this movie looked very "ho hum" [Roll Eyes]

so be don't be put of by it like I was.

Based on a true story of the "Mee" family in England, who did buy a run down zoo, director Cameron Crowe has done a good job of casting for this film. The Blu-ray also includes a fascinating documentary on the real "Mee" family.

Its a good all round family movie I would recommend that's a bit different [Smile]

PS...does anyone recognize actor Angus Macfadyen in the background of this photo as "Robert the Bruce" from 1995 "Braveheart"
