Director: Cameron Crowe
Starring: Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson
What a surprisingly entertaining holiday movie this is!! Matt Damon is at his best playing the role of a widower who buys a zoo to start a new life for himself and his two young children. Amongst the tears and the anguish he struggles on while trying to accept the loss of his wife. He comes to realize that his children are also hurting. He knows he must carry on and ultimately rediscovers the love of his son.

These sort of films unfortunately are a rare find nowadays. Where most movies are packed with nudity and violence, in contrast, this one is funny, dramatic and also has many sentimental moments which tug tightly at the heart strings. The two child performers are naturals who play their roles so convincingly that the audience feels the grief they are experiencing.

Forget the glossy high budget blockbusters! Support this small movie. Take the whole family to see the feel good movie of the year... and don’t forget to bring your tissues... JAKE 3.5
