while the animation and style of the movie aren not half bad and in fact ( besides of background stuff and vegetation not exactly move much and the character seem lifeless every now and then ) it seem good than a lot other animated movie ( except anything by pixar or dreamworks of course ) . that say the writing be horrible and mainly because the story doesn not seem to make any sense whatsoever . from what i gather it seem to play a few year after don quixote fight against the windmill and all of his adventure and the movie be to about 50 % about sancho donkey ( thus call donkey xote ) . the action and trait of the character deviate from one scene to another and the story even get into the bizarre at time . for example we get a bad guy and that isn not really evil . more conflicted or confused cause he want to get famous . and he seem to be the kind of guy that believe the best way to make you leave a city would be to make everyone else disappear so you feel unwelcome and then block all the river and burn all the food so you will have to leave after a while instead of say throw you out directly . and while that might have some sort of style it illogical and this movie be riddle with similar stuff . also there some of his minion that want to kill some of the protagonist at one point and after the hero manage to save themselves and there doesn not seem to be any grudge and both party just walk away . with a decent script this could have be a nice animate movie similar to say shrek but a it stand right now it somewhere between a 3 4 for me .
