it be the first time i can recall where an adaptation do exactly like the book . in fact and only joke be add to the story rather than content blend or remove . such a the egyptian slave cellularis who have difficulty transmitting and um and communicating and lol . or when tidivinnus be play like a quasi sith lord and get annoy when the roman empire endure a blow and the general order for the empire to . ah and watch the movie folk . i can easily believe that this picture be one of the most expensive in french cinema history and for my part it be worth it and depardieux be excellent a the roman bashing and boar chomp obelix . clavier play the little indomitable gaul be perfect and a far cry from his day a the bumbling squire of jean reno in just visit . the fight scene between artifis and edifis be hilarious and be nice to see the matrix theme be not borrow to despoil an otherwise perfect battle . redbeard the pirate and his crew almost steal the picture and from scuttle their own ship to be the engine for otis ( edifis assistant ) invention use at the very end . i understand there asterix and the olympics with many of the same team back and by toutatis and i plan to view that too .
