Zoo Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Neva Chonin
Punch lines and outrage come easy, but beware: If you walk into this film with a secure moral judgment, prepare to have it shaken by the time you leave.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
You could wander into this poetic documentary willing to be sympathetic toward its subject -- men who have sex with horses -- and still find Zoo cryptic and borderline bogus.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Zoo, despite its elegance, teeters on a tightrope; by relying primarily on words from men who seem reluctant to talk much about what happened, it ends up having little to say.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
As artful and delicate as director Robinson Devor tries to be with his documentary's disorienting material, the enterprise bogs down from the weight of its artistic intent and mannered methods.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Filmed with visual beauty and conceptual taste -- too much so, say the film's detractors -- it's an eerie glimpse into a secret world.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Stamets
This experimental-style documentary invokes the waking dreams of David Lynch, Werner Herzog and Errol Morris. It's like a true-crime inquiry undertaken during a total eclipse.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
[The filmmakers] insist, none too convincingly, that animals are capable of consenting to fulfilling their sexual needs. Wilburrrrr!!
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Devor has an eye; this is clear. If he trades some of the poetry for a little prose next time out, he'll really have something, whatever his subject.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Zoo is a cool sensibility married to a hot topic, a poetic film about a forbidden, unsettling subject.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Zoo is, to a large extent, about the rhetorical uses of beauty. It is, rather more coyly, also about a man who died after having sex with a stallion.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Time and again, Devor sabotages his own attempt to bring 'zoos,' literally and figuratively, into the light.
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
The legacy of Chris Marker weeps when the future of essay filmmaking looks like a feature-length commercial for Ambien.
Slate
Dana Stevens
Zoo is hardly a brief on behalf of the practice, but it does treat those who engage in it as something more than just contemptible freaks.
Newsweek
David Ansen
Zoo avoids any taint of exploitation, but it errs on the opposite extreme. I came away from it wanting a little less Art and a lot more simple reportage.
Village Voice
Nathan Lee
I can't believe I'm thinking about this stuff, but weirdly grateful to Zoo for going there.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
The artiness -- and the ambient drone -- of Zoo becomes oppressive, but it's still a ride like no other. I guess I couldn't suppress the urge to make dumb jokes. Call me a neigh-sayer.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
Robinson Devor and his accomplished crew expand our concept of the documentary film.
Blender
David Fear
What's most surprising, however, is how [filmmaker Robinson Devor is] able to make a film about such a sensationalistic subject and have it be neither unbearably sleazy nor cringe-inducing.
Chicago Reader
Devor's moody style (silhouettes, reenactments, an ominously throbbing score) only heightens the sleazy Dateline NBC feel.
