Entertainment Reviews:
An unlikely family film, one that will delight the kids (who see themselves portrayed as heroes) while leaving parents with a lot of explaining to do.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
If the 1941 Blitz of Belfast, Northern Ireland, doesn’t seem the likeliest setting for a heartwarming, family-friendly film, think again. Writer-director Colin McIvor’s ZOO is a lovely, true-life memory piece...
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 3/5 --
Zoo isn't particularly engaging visually, but for young animal lovers, the film's heart-warming story about children saving a baby elephant will be a joy.

Chesapeake Family Magazine
Despite some flaws, it's great to see an adventurous kids' movie based in Ireland. And of course, it's hard not to appreciate a story about a baby elephant and a kid that loves animals.

Product Description:
Irish teen Tom (Art Parkinson) recruits his friends to help him rescue a baby elephant named Buster from the zoo during the World War II German air raids of Northern Ireland known as the Belfast Blitz. With bombs destroying portions of the city, local officials fear the zoo's wild animals escaping and decide to preemptively put them down. With his zookeeper father away to war, it's up to Tom to protect the elephant that he's bonded with. Written and directed by Colin McIvor. Penelope Wilton and Toby Jones co-star. Based on a true story.
