What Parents Need to Know
About Donkey X
Parents need to know that viewers who are unfamiliar with the Don Quixote story may find themselves lost or baffled by the plot at first. Though Don Quixote makes a noble, if loony, effort to be a valiant knight, many characters he meets are sinister and scheming. Moreover, most of the females are portrayed as buxom hags who nag. Lots of swords clashing and teeth gnashing, but nothing scary or gory.
