Could Have Been a Lot Better

Rating: 6/10 (20 August 2005)

I loved the characters, especially the giraffe, lemurs and the penguins, but I wish the story had a lot more substance to it. The funniest scenes were definitely given to the lemurs and the penguins. I wish the monkeys were given more "screen" time, as it were.
The graphics were great. They got the Central Park Zoo dead-on (although there are no lions there), and Grand Central Station was great.
I would really love to see a sequel, because a better story would do these characters justice. Maybe a story with some adventures in NY with some animals getting loose? I'd absolutely love to see more of NY graphically, and there is an endless supply of story ideas that could be created.
