An escaped zoo gorilla becomes a hero when he saved kidnapped kids. 

SYNOPSIS:

APE

While transporting a gorilla named Mojo to a local zoo the train crashes and the animal escapes, meanwhile a gang of criminals kidnap the Reynolds kids to extort from their parents, but one Karen escapes and runs into Mojo and she befriends it when one of the criminals arrives and takes her back while Mojo is away, and it sees this and follows and senses the men are bad and saves the kids and escapes with them. The rest of the gang led by Thaddeus Burke try to track them down, while animal control and rangers find the sites also amps up the search by joining with the Feds.

Burke finds out about Mojo and has his men ready for battle, but Mojo is able to outsmart them at every turn and kills a few of them. In the final showdown Mojo manages to defeat many of them and the authorities arrive, and the criminals are arrested, and Burk tries to kill the kids, but Mojo intervenes and kills him but is injured. Mojo is taken to the vet, recovers, and gets some pretty special treatment at the zoo and is a major attraction as a hero.

Ape sounds interesting, Kevin Hager! I like the concept!

I think your logline needs more info.

Something like: After a zoo transport crashes and a gorilla escapes, it rescues kidnapped siblings from a gang of criminals.

Or this: After a zoo transport crashes and a gorilla escapes, it rescues rich siblings from a gang of criminals that kidnapped them.
