Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Kirpianuscus Its basic virtue - to meet the flavor and the seduction of comics. the second good thing - the cast. Gottfried John is the perfect Cesar and Roberto Benigni is himself in the most inspired manner. and the chemistry between Clavier and Depardieu is real impressive. so, a lovely film. for so many motifs than it could be one on your list of "must see".

TheLittleSongbird Asterix and Obelix Take on Caesar is not a masterpiece in any shape or form and has its problems but it is not an awful movie. Then again it is dependent on version you see, in my opinion the French version is the best while the translation isn't really worth bothering with. I agree the plot is tired and the direction on the languid side, and that the visuals and CGI is nothing brilliant to be honest with you. Take on Ceasar is also criticised for having none of the wit and charm of the animated adventures or the books. Of course they are definitely better, but it is dependent on which version you see(that criticism is understandable if it were the translation), in the French version there are enough deft touches in the script to amuse I think. The pacing is good, while the acting is fine. Christian Clavier and Gerard Depardieu are well cast in the title roles, while Roberto Benigni sinks his teeth into his role as the scheming centurion. In conclusion, nothing fantastic, but it isn't that bad. 6/10 Bethany Cox

Logiebear42 I was a Huge fan of the Asterix books when I was about 5-6 and as I re-read them throughout the ages, I learned more, Understood more and enjoyed it more. I've vowed to never read the newer books for fear of ruining such a good childhood experience. I've heard talk of aliens in the newer ones *shudders* And so, It was with much trepidation that I picked up a copy of Asterix and Obelix from my video store. With even more trepidation, I watched it.As a Die-hard fan, I can tell you this: You will enjoy this movie, warts and all.The books have been recreated to some of the minutest details imaginable, It really is incredible what a good job they have done.That being said, There are warts. Quite a lot of them. The visual effects aren't on the great side, The CGI is far from flawless. Also a couple of moments felt like they departed too far from the original idea.The storyline is a combination of several Asterix books, plus some new elements. so even though I mostly knew what was going to happen, there were a couple of surprises along the way. Some were good, some bad. It all depends on opinion really.The humor is good, I highly recommend the English overdub as it doesn't just translate the movie, but makes it a hell of a lot funnier. There is a lot of slapstick comedy, well executed mostly.To conclude: This movie isn't perfect. It's not a masterpiece and it won't win any awards. But this I can say; If you read the books, enjoyed them, understood the humor and can bear a little tackiness - Then you WILL enjoy this movie.

Pablo Escobar I saw this movie because I like Asterix and Obelix and I like movies, So I thought this movie will be nice, but actually not.I already knew the comics are better because Asterix is a typical story for comics.But I can't give less than 6/10 because the characters are really like the comic.Roberto Begnini is also a great actor en shows that in this movie.I didn't laugh during this movie because the jokes are too bad.But what I liked during this movies were the resemblances between the comic and this movie.Roberto is not only a great actor he speaks also french very well.The most French movies have good humor with funny moments but this movie is actually boring.In general I don't like comedies.Obelix walking with the stone is also pretty good.Many things were good made and thats the reason why I give 6/10.Actually I didn't expect a nice movie before I watch this movie.The next time I will not watch movies of Asterix and Obelix.
