Having read all the Asterix books as a child, I have viewed (along with my two boys aged 7) all the Asterix films available and with mixed results. Others aside, this is a true rendition from the book and well drawn and the film has captured the spirit of Asterix and all the other characters.
This is a wonderful film. Plenty of action and physical fun for children, and plenty of humour for adults eg SMS the message carrying pigeon. We watched this as a family and thoroughly enjoyed it. It should appeal to Asterix and Obelix fans old and new.
