Asterix in Britain

The only one of all the Asterix films that is a quality adaptation of a storybook adventure. Smart, yet understandable humour, this time spiced with a pinch of English dry humour. (09/16/2006)

Traditional animated adventure based on the 1966 album "Asterix in Britain". Or Asterix, Obelix, Idefix, Astrix and a keg of magic drink on the go. It's nice, it's fine. The Brits can't cook, the Celts are all cousins and that's that :) (08/26/2019)

Another one of my favorite Asterix films, mainly because they beautifully poke fun at the Britons throughout the whole movie. It's funny, it breaks stereotypes, and moreover, it still has a story where the Romans fit in nicely, and the whole narrative is essentially a celebration of food and drink, even if it might be a celebration in a somewhat negative sense of the word.

Fantastic! This is exactly what true animated entertainment should look like. If the poor Gauls had any idea how the Brits can spoil even a delicious boar, they would not have gone to their aid at all. Fortunately, they didn't and I was able to witness not only a series of unforgettable catchphrases and fights, but even the toughest rugby match in history, which I will truly never forget.

I don't know why, but if I had watched this five years ago, I'd have been full of glee. But it's worn off over the years. Unfortunately, all I see now is an average film that doesn't really stand out. It's great for Asterix fans, but for me, it's just a bland cartoon. On the other hand, I have to say I liked the ancient London (the almost wooden Big Ben and Tower Bridge) and the elegant insertion of tea as the national drink of England was also not the worst idea.
