This new adventure of Asterix film is delighted, exciting and funny. It seemed a bit familiar to based on the comic book, but very different story. I see when Obelix (Gerard Depardieu) helps Assurancetourix (Franck Dubosc) to make romantic poets in front of Princess Irina (Vanessa Hessler) that reminded me in

Rarely so outraged, but this piece of mindless images-in-motion is positively a sacrilege. The humour is admirable, but totally amiss. The script is an absolutely mess, no convincing storyline, no dramatic structure, no sense of rhythm. This movie is the worst of all three, definitely slow, much too long, outright boring and worse than amateurish.
