'We Bought a Zoo' tugs at the heartstrings
‘We Bought a Zoo’ opens with the voice of Dylan Mee (Colin Ford), narrating glimpses of his journalist father Benjamin's (Matt Damon) worldly adventures.
Ben's been embedded with violent dictators, covered with killer bees and flown through the eye of a hurricane, but as Dylan explicitly states, ''nothing prepared him for this one'' - the ''this one'' being the titular purchasing of a zoo on the brink of closure.
