Yikes! Meghan Markle's Disney 'Elephant' Debut Panned By Critics As 'Shallow,' Cheesy (via Fox411)
on April 3, a majority of film critics based in the United Kingdom rated "Elephant" three out of five stars, calling out the Duchess of Sussex's voice acting as overdramatized.
"And yes, she certainly has an actor’s way with a phrase and a likeable sense of mischief. “Oh! Who did that?” she coos in mock disgust when one of the elephant calves breaks wind. The sense of performance, though, often feels overegged. Even the underwhelming moment in which the elephants rip some bark off a tree is presented like the announcement of the winner for best picture."
Overall, Potton said "Elephant" serves as a hint that "evidence-based nature documentaries" may be a thing of the past, as the Markle-lead documentary "feels a bit shallow." critic Owen Gleiberman called the theme of "Elephant" "rather dry" for a flick intended to shed light on the species' risk of ivory poaching.
