4.0 out of 5 stars 12 Monkeys, 4 zebras, 2 elephants and a lion., September 24, 2006

This review is from: Zebra in the Kitchen (DVD)

This is the original classic tale of the boy who let all the animals out of the zoo, directed by Ivan Tors, the best animal filmmaker of the 1960s (Flipper, Gentle Ben, Sea Hunt, Daktari, etc.). The idea was later used in 12 Monkeys.
Jay North (Maya) is the boy, whose own pet mountain lion is confined to the delapidated city zoo, so he lets it out along with all the other animals. Zookeepers Martin Milner (Adam 12, Life With Father, 13 Ghosts) and Andy Devine (Island In The Sky, That's The Spirit) have to help round them up. There are some cameos including Marshall Thompson (Daktari).
Recommended for kids to see animals & slapstick humor.

This review is from: Zebra in the Kitchen (DVD)

I remember watching this movie as a kid and really enjoying it. Adults, on the other hand, might find the plot to be a bit boring and far-fetched. Even though Jay North (Dennis the Menace) does an admirable acting job, there is no way a boy his age would let out all the animals in the zoo without thinking of the potentially dire consequences -- not only to the public but to the animals themselves. Still, it was slightly ahead of its time in increasing public awareness on some of the less-than-desirable conditions of some animals in captivity. All that being said, it's still a fun movie -- at least for the kiddie set.
