Asterix, the pirate captain, most of his crew, Caesar himself, so many characters return, yet played by vastly different actors, and it's odd and... well... the old actors were pretty perfect.
Asterix and Obelix: Mission Cleopatra was one of the funniest, greatest movies ever made. So I was excited to find out there's a newer movie I hadn't known about, still staring Gerard Depardieu as Obelix, as well as some returning cast from the Cleopatra movie. And yeah - again, I wish the old cast returned fully, not just one or two of them...
And they really messed up Obelix's look here. His fat suit is now way larger than before, making him look ridiculously unproportional. Why was that necessary?
Oh well, that aside, this is still a really fun, really enjoyable Asterix & Obelix French comedy.
Still, the Cleopatra one remains the funniest, most creative, and with the best cast. Don't expect the same level of perfection here.
