    Storyline

    • Trivia
      In an early version of the movie there was a scene where chief Vitalstatistix opens his fly, pulls out a fish and asks Unheigenix to smell it, but Albert Uderzo (Asterix creator) hated the joke and asked for it to be removed.
    • Goofs
      Caesar and the other Romans seem to think the world is flat. In truth, they would have known it was round, since scientists from Greek culture had determined this several centuries earlier.
    • Alternate versions
      In 2003 the film was re-released in Germany with a different dubbing featuring the voices of John Friedmann and Florian Simbeck (the infamous comedy duo "Erkan & Stefan", best known for their pseudo-Turkish/Bavarian accent). That dub was also included on the DVD/Blu-ray (called the "Schwörerdeutsch-Version").

    Average Asterix
    I remember watching this flick as a kid, so last night I took a trip down memory lane by watching it on Youtube.

    The first two acts were great, but the third one sucks. The finale was rushed. Normally the climax of a film is meant to action packed and entertaining. Here, it just flies by and you don't care.

    I didn't buy the relationship between Obelix and the Indian girl. The scene where they say goodbye is meant to be sad, but we feel nothing because we only had one scene of them together. Maybe if they had more scenes, that goodbye scene would work properly.

    Craig Charles is miscast as Asterix. When you see Asterix, do you think to yourself "Dave Lister should play him"?

    The guy playing Obelix works though. But the star of the movie is Christopher Biggins' villain. He's such a kiss ass, yet his plan works. And Chris had fun camping it up.

    I liked the Oxford/Camberidge joke and the Romans forming into a pie and slicing a piece. That joke was well done.

    The CGI sucks and it's not a film that'll grab you. It doesn't leave you with the urge to watch it again.

    Worth watching if you like Asterix, but its not as good as The Twelve Tasks Of Asterix which is my fave Asterix movie.
