I have a new movie to check out: The Queen’s Corgi. It is a Belgian animated film about Queen Elizabeth’s corgis. A heartwarming European family comedy?
It has a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes with reviews such as:
- “Deeply unpleasant and in no way suitable for children.”
- “An appalling exercise in misjudgment”
- “It’s as if the screenwriters wrote a hard R, Sausage Party-style lowbrow romp and a G-rated movie about cute doggies, then combined the two scripts into something that was wildly inappropriate for families but too cute and cloying for adults. Nobody should watch this with their kids if they watch it at all.”
Even before I got to the reviews, what stood out to me was that it has both a UK voice cast and an American cast. Meaning they took a film, that takes place in the UK, and then redubbed it from English.. TO ENGLISH. And if that’s not wild enough for you, At least three members of the American cast are not credited under their own names. And I guarantee a fourth name is also fake because “Rusty Shackleford” is credited. FUCKING DALE GRIBBLE’S ALIAS IS IN THE CREDITS.
Watch it for free on YouTube via the “Family Central” channel.
