The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The animation is great. I like the show a lot. Too bad is was taken off the air, not sure why when it was good and I know a lot of people who watched it on late night Teletoon (along with Tripping the Rift which also should have stayed on longer). The only thing I really didn't like was the music videos because I didn't like the bands and don't understand if they were supposed to be in the mansion or part of the show or just additional music or what?

Life's a Zoo is a unique show with great animation but it isn't great. The worst thing about the show is the weird way they stick music videos in every episode, they come out of nowhere and you have to suddenly watch an entire music video by a band nobody has ever heard of and unless you happen to like the music (I only liked one in all the episodes I saw) you are in for a few minutes of boredom or even worse. The voice work was not very good but wasn't terrible either. The writing wasn't bad but also wasn't great. Overall the show is better than average but not special in any way.
