Donkey X (2007)

What a beautiful movie!

Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

this movie SUCKS. yeah it does. not for children, it makes crude jokes about a woman. that is not all. the animation is poor at some times and nice at others. like they have more than one studio. now it has a bad guy which is not really bad. he was trying to get popular and tries to get rid of him, but not telling him to get out, so in reality he is nice. in the beginning of the movie they make a reference to shrek. so choppy cat. over all this movie SUCKS.

I paid US$3 for the DVD and it was too much!Here what is bad about it:(1) The 3-D animation is very fine in certain scenes and very coarse in others (probably the movie was done by different groups/companies). (2)The main character looks suspiciously like a blue-eyed version of "Donkey" from Shrek (they even make a reference to Shrek at the beginning of the movie). (3) Most of the music was not composed for the movie, they just recycled some oldies.Bottom Line:If I had seen this movie on Netflix at no cost other than my regular membership fee I would still have felt disappointed.

While the animation and style of the movie aren't half bad, in fact (besides of background stuff and vegetation not exactly moving much and the characters seeming lifeless every now and then) it seems better than a lot other animated movies (except anything by Pixar or Dreamworks of course).That said the writing is horrible, mainly because the story doesn't seem to make any sense WHATSOEVER. From what I gathered it seems to play a few years after Don Quixote's fight against the windmills and all of his adventures and the movie is to about 50% about Sancho's Donkey (thus called Donkey Xote). The actions and traits of the characters deviate from one scene to another and the story even gets into the bizarre at times.For example we got a "bad guy", that isn't really evil... more conflicted or confused cause he wants to get famous. And he seems to be the kind of guy that believes the best way to make you leave a city would be to make everyone else disappear so you feel unwelcome, then block all the rivers and burn all the food so you'll have to leave after a while instead of say throwing you out directly... and while that might have some sort of style it's illogical and this movie is riddled with similar stuff. Also there's some of his minions that want to kill some of the protagonists at one point and after the heroes managed to save themselves, there doesn't seem to be any grudge and both parties just walk away.With a decent script this could've been a nice animated movie similar to say Shrek but as it stands right now it's somewhere between a 3-4 for me.

After watching many of Hollywood's production. I came to conclusion that many of their movies are a crap. I didn't expect to much from this animation movie, but it's surprisingly good. Although it is a Spanish production I managed to obtain an English synchronized version. This is an old story of Don Quiote pictured on an unusually funny way. If you are full of Hollywood's crap give it a chance, you can't mistake. I know what i like when i see it. Many times I saw some bad comment's and thought i"It's a bad movie", but to some of them I gave a chance and saw that these comments are very subjective nature. As I don't have to much to say and I have to had some 10 lines (admins might reconsider to change that rule), I am no allowed to publish this comment. OK, maybr it's time to set up some alternative to IMDb, something like Wikipedia, but only for movies.
