Endride

Could this be a strange fantasy version of Journey to the Centre of a …. hollow Earth !?! It stars two boys who tiptoe around, with swords coming out of their chests, and eventually team up against a common enemy. So it does not look completely stupid; they are joined by a very unpleasant, insufferable girl with a strange dragon. She not only acts as a pretty awful mascot for this crap but is also her ultimate weapon, and you do not even want to know what else is going on. Next comes the scientist, who is also "awfully cute" and who, like most characters, will survive just about anything, just like a cockroach does. Along the way, we meet the show's version of Robin Hood, who is probably the only one who is not a total and insufferable retard, and his "merry band" of strange beings. We learn how to pull off a political coup in a completely boring and moronic way and experience twists that would work surprisingly well anywhere else and yet seem incredibly boring when in this particular show. It does not have a brilliant narrative by any stretch of the imagination, so you can fairly accurately predict where the show is heading from the start. In addition, even the most surprising plot twists do nothing to make it interesting because, as I mentioned before, the execution is terrible. The emotional aspect is incomprehensible, and the "sorry, I stabbed your father..." conversations are inexecrable. "It is okay, he was an asshole anyway, however, you are an even bigger asshole" comes up far too often. The two main protagonists' dialogue made me feel like I was watching something like Dumb and Dumber (or, speaking of Jim Carrey movies, perhaps "Dumb and Dumber and Cow"), even though, unfortunately, this version is not in the least bit funny. Add to that a terrible opening and ending, and animation needlessly over-colored, and you have something unwatchable. I think there was almost nothing was very good about this except for one character and the original, interesting idea of a hollow Earth, and I surprised myself that I survived this ride to the end. Well, because I managed to finish watching it, I am going to give it one point, which will save it from being BOO!, because once again I am going to remind you that Pupa was worse, though not by much... 1/10.
