The shame of the film-industry
18 March 2001
Yes it is... The shame of the film industry. I loved Asterix and Obelix when I was a kid. They were well designed characters and really had a sense of humor. .... But what this movie is about?... Completely nothing. Spending a great deal of money making something really lame. No story, no character evolution, no humor. The special effects are really bad. The flying Roman soldiers are blobby and the chroma keying and computer animations are very obvious. It is just annoying to see such great actors in a film like this (Gerard Depardieu, Roberto Benigni, Gottfried John). I don't want to see the sequel (Asterix: Mission Cleopatra). Big thumbs down for the French.
