Here is My Movie Review of the Elephant Queen

So basically what happens is that you have this elephant named Athena who is navigating through the country of Africa with her family trying to survive in the heat while trying to get to her watering hole and she has to face so many challenges with her family in order to get there and it's up to Athena and her family get to get to the watering hole and survive the heart heat of Africa and that is basically what the story is for the film. 

Now much like my movie review of Hubble the acting is just one actor narrating throughout the film.

 Chiwetel Ejiofor Narrates the film. I have to say he still does a spectacular job of narrating. What I like about having a narration is that he explains that it is a tough time for Athena and her family to get to the Watering hole because elephants have to go to the water hole and it takes them a very long time to get there and they have to survive in the hot heat. Probably my favorite moment is when Chiwetel Ejiofor is narrating at the end where he explains that Athena is giving birth to our new baby elephant. Not only was it really powerful but it made sense because she Needed to give birth so her new baby could be a part of her family. It is probably the strongest moment of the entire film.  Also I could tell that Chiwetel Ejiofor was having a lot of fun narrating the film. 

The directing by Mark Deeble and Victoria Stone It's terrific because what I like about their directing is that they do a fantastic job of discussing the Life of a mother elephant need to watch over her babies and Brighten them till the watering hole so they can drink water and what the trials and tribulations in order to get there is that they have two navigate the hot weather of Africa and survive. I still think it is awesome and how they did that. 

So in conclusion I still really enjoy this movie. I still think it is a terrific and well done documentary surrounding the story of Athena having to navigate her family in Africa in order to get to their watering hole. This is still one of the best movies of 2019. I also think this is up there with Causeway and one of my favorite A24 films. Also this is up there with Finch with Tom Hanks at one of my favorite Apple TV Plus original films. I have to say if you enjoy Nature documentaries like Tiny World with Paul Rudd then I'm sure you're going to like this one. I give this movie a 10/10.
