    • Trivia
      While this marks Vincent Cassel's first appearance in an Astérix film, his father Jean-Pierre Cassel previously appeared in Asterix at the Olympic Games (2008) as the druid Panoramix while his now former wife Monica Bellucci portrayed Cleopatra in Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra (2002). Moreover, the character Maccabaeus in the comic book "Asterix and the Picts" was based on Vincent Cassel's features.
    • Goofs
      Obélix and Tatane look at the sunset in front of them from the prow of the ship currently in the Indian Ocean and going from Egypt to China, i.e. going East. But the sun sets in the West, so they should be looking at the sunset from the other side of the ship, the stern.
    • Crazy credits
      No Roman was mistreated during the filming.

      Follows Asterix and Obelix vs. Caesar (1999)

    good silly fun

    I never grew up with asterix and obelix and im not too familier with them, but I really thought this was a pretty entertaining movie. The only daughrer of the queen of china has to be escorted back. And the only people that can help her are the two brave heries asterix and obelix. They make a great team and watching their antics was fun. But of course like with most films like this there are villians not to far behind. This time ceaser and cleopatra are their along with another man who is trying to steel the princesses affection, that asterix would like a bit of. The cast of this film played their roles well and the directing was good. Their was enough action and some laughs and overall pretty good.
