Underrated
Highly underrated. For some reason only one review was posted which kind of made me not watch the movie but I'm glad I did watch it because it was fun. We rarely have those fun movies with some sort of a message. If it's a funny and lighthearted movie then mostly it's just that.This one motivated me enough to save our nature and stuff bcs after finishing this movie I went straight to water my plants hehe.
Ofcourse there was space for a lot of improvement but I'm not a critic I'm just a viewer who was interested in something with the comedy tag and this one kind of attracted me.
Dumb kind of comedy with a plot line which didn't make me think too much along with a typical rich people torturing the poor or powerless ones for their gain type of story is not too much off an attraction but it did attract me.
Even after being such an illogical story, the movie did attract me. In those 2hr 22 min even though I did not laugh like a stupid person but it did make me happy. There were fun moments and there were dumb moments too.
For someone thinking about whether to watch or not, I'd recommend go for it. It's not a waste of time as such. The cast is good. Story is clear and doesn't revolves around too many things. Simple plot with simple things. Nothing too much of fantasy or unrealism.
Rewatch: I might do it. It was worth my time.

Korean movies can take any concept and convert them into must watch movie. The first half of the movie is extremely funny not in childish way bit for everyone age group and that's the best part of the movie where everyone can really enjoy the restlessness of the characters to do their role and the mess they get into while doing that.

Funny yet heartwarming
at the first i just laughed and think this is a pure comedy movie until i realize that they are also put morality about animal cruelty on it. even it is not that deep but it is a great movement to share awareness through comedy and light show. all the cast did it well especially yeo been who are amazingly very similar to sloth?. if you having a bad days and wanna watch something can light up your heart, this one is for youWas this review helpful to you?
very entertaining!!
what a movie! this is so underrated despite being so funny.. i mean i wasnt laughing till i couldn't breathe or anything but i was giggling sm you would've thought i lost it or something..ofc the story is not very realistic- like how did the people not realise that those werent real animals,, very odd if you think about it but i just find it very funny!
this movie is simple, lighthearted, weird and delivers a message all at once so i dont regret watching it at all <3
this entertained me and i felt good after finishing it and that's what matters to me!
if you want to watch it then this is your sign!!

It has been so long since I watch such a funny comedy
When wasthe last time you enjoyed and lol-ed at a comedy the whole watch time. For me it has been so long ! But Secret Zoo made it all up!This movie might have it's "too silly" moments but honestly never for a second did I doubt my desire to continue watching, it's actually the opposite! The movie is so light hearted and fun to watch that you would find it too short.
The comedy is topnotch!!! I laughed almost the whole time!
For once not knowing more about the characters was actually a good thing, since the movie doesn't discover much of the staff outside the zoo situation, we didn't have to carry the burden of sympathy and sadness so the movie kept this fun light flow of it.
Recommend: 100%

Now THAT'S an original idea!!
I happened upon this movie quite by accident and it was fun. I loved how the ML was changed by the people he met and the experiences they had together. I laughed quite a lot during this movie and teared up at the end. The movie has a good message without beating you over the head with it. I have seen most of the actors in other works, so it was kind of like "old home week". And can I just say, I'm so glad to see Park Hyung Soo in a role where he isn't a complete jerk? Ever since Crash Landing on You, he always plays a bad guy. He does it well, mind you, but this was a nice change of pace for him.My absolute favorite scenes were the scenes with the sloth, especially when she was practicing while she was at work at the market.
Cute and entertaining movie when you want something short to watch.

A quality movie with a message
I wanted to binge something light, so chose this as a dose of laughter.Before reading the synopsis I was thinking that humans are trapped and animals were visiting the zoo to see them.
Humans dressed up as animals was a quirky story. There wasn't a dull moment, I kept laughing all the way. the actors tried their best to portray the animals. lion looked as if posing for the photo. polar bear drinking cola was funny.
well synopsis is very well written, it gives you half of the story. And the other half IMO is a message to all humans to not do mean stuff against animals. Do animals really wanna stay at the zoo and be an entertainment piece? Yeah, they cannot think but when they get love and care they stay with humans. Please respect animals.
thinking beyond the movie humans were too mean and threw stuff at animals. The kids throwing colas for the bear 2 drink why show bad advertisements 2 make people believe unreal stuff? this was just a movie but in real-world many animals are abused every day. If you can't help them, don't abuse them.
The Polar Bear clearly was unhappy in that cage but due to the girl selfishness, she held onto him but when she realized to let go she saw that the bear remembered her.
Also, the corporate people who try to destroy the green habitat and create concrete jungles are the worst. In the name of development, they have grown blind and keep on destroying the environment.
My fav animal was the lion in that sitting position was just marvelous. i enjoyed the movie.

Too long and boring
There is nothing so special about this movie.The movie is bit boring but I must say, It comes with an unique concept.SERIOUSLY! Who ever think of presenting fake animals in a zoo?Though I found the movie boring and too long at the first, the middle part is full of fun elements.Espeically , their practising part and presenting themselves as real animals is really funnyy.Besides,comedy scenes I didn’t find anything interesting.Again the ending seems rushed.
The artists did a amazing job,can't blame them for story.Moreover, they did the costume part,which are really heavy.So,all credit goes to them for presenting a worst story with a better view.
So,better not to watch.
