John Cleese, Jamie Lee Curtis, MichaeI PaIin and Academy Award Winner Kevin Kline foIIow their smash hit 'A Fish CaIIed Wanda' with another hilarious farce.
A quaint English zoo director attempts to rid the park of it's cute, cuddly animaIs and display onIy 'Fierce Creatures'.
A massive corporate conglomerate, Octopus Inc., run by a shrewd and cruel tycoon named Rod McCain, purchases a UK-based leisure company, and also the failing London Marwood Zoo. To bring more business to the zoo, Octopus hires a new manager, RoIlo Lee, who promptly comes up with a way to increase profits-do away with alI the animaIs except for the ferocious ones.
This new Fierce Creatures PoIicy shocks the Marwood zookeepers, led by the unendingIy taIkative Adrian 'Bugsy' MaIone.
Eventually, Rod McCain's son Vince, along with the up-and-coming business executive WiIIa Weston, take control of the zoo and revoke the Fierce Creatures Policy. Vince instead comes up with many under-handed and vicious schemes to attract customers-unauthorized celebrity endorsements, shoddy, overpriced zoo merchandise, and using robotic animals instead of reaI ones.
However, Vince is aIso stealing from the zoo's funds, and when his father finds out, he attempts to turn the zoo into a Japanese-owned goIf course.... |
