'Asterix and Obelix Take On Caesar' is France's second most successful film of all time and stars internationally renowned actor Gerard Depardieu as Gaulish warrior Obelix alongside Oscar winning Roberto Benigni as the wicked Detritus. Journey back 2000 years as Ancient France is on the brink of complete Roman invasion, well almost complete... except for one small village of indomitable Gauls that still holds out against the invaders.

It is here that Asterix and his friends are contentedly going about their usual business - fighting Romans and hunting wild boar. Yet when the ambitious Roman Emperor Detritus kidnaps the Druid Getafix in an attempt to reveal the secret of the magic potion, the heros embark on an elaborate scheme to rescue their friend.

In the catalogue of sidespitting blunders Asterix finds himself captured. It is up to Obelix to help him escape, battling terrifying beasts along the way and returning to the village with a mysterious prisoner.

The film itself is good fun and the adaptation by Terry Jones (of Monty Python fame) helps but my enjoyment was seriously tainted from the start.

Should have read the small print but it was inconceivable that any company would be so perverse and lazy as to take a French film and dub it into English but then to include only the English dub and nothing else!
This DVD contains no subtitles whatsoever English or French, no French language audio.
The only "extras" are a theatrical trailer and menu selection. The film was made in 1999 and unfortunately the age of this DVD is all too apparent in the low production values.

BUYER BEWARE.

This film was a thoroughly enjoyable live action adaptation of an original Asterix classic. Gags and action abound, and though the special effects are somewhat dated, it did not affect the film for me. It is a shame that English subtitles are unavailable, and only the dubbed english is available, but I still found the film hugely enjoyable... Definately reccommended!
