Roomalaiset ovat valloittaneet lähes koko Ranskan lukuunottamatta pientä, gallialaisten kylää. Roomalaiset haluavat selvittää heidän voittamattomuutensa salaisuuden ja lähettävät vakoojansa ottamaan asiasta selvää. Roomalaisten onnistuukin saada vangikseen tietäjä Akvavitix, jolta he yrittävät puristaa taikajuoman salaisuuden. Luonnollisesti Asterix ystävineen rientää hänen avukseen, ja jännittävien vaiheiden jälkeen selviää, pystyvätkö gallialaiset säilyttämään salaisuutensa. (Nordisk Film Fin.)

I guess I give 60% of this film's appeal to nostalgia, as it's still quite decent for an animated film, but the story is so simple and silly that one wonders how it actually filled an hour-long movie. It's an introduction of characters to the film, at least an animated one, and there's not much else to take from it. The good movies are yet to come.

There’s no biggest fan of Asterix than me, I grew up with the comics and I know most of the stories by heart. That's why I can't accept its animated form, which is a mere pastiche compared to the books. What happened to Goscinny's clever humour? Where is Uderzo's artistic brilliance? Both of Asterix's "spiritual fathers" have nothing to do with the animated films and the result shows it. Asterix is for me an intelligent kind of humour, like Cimrman here for example, but the animated versions are not like that and they are quite different from the printed ones, they lack the ambiguous humour. You'd better read Asterix.

The now classic that introduced Asterix and Obelix to the television screen. It's not as elaborate and there's less subversive humour compared to the comics. It certainly doesn't have the quality of later sequels, but it's still solid entertainment where the simple antics of the Romans will keep the kids reliably amused.

The first Asterix movie doesn't reach the quality of its legendary successors, but it's still a force to be reckoned with. It is, after all, a stepping stone to the piles of battered Romans and the imaginative humour that entertained children and adults then, and continues to do so today. There are already some nice dialogues and motifs that show the genius and timelessness of Goscinnny's humour.

I'm going to repeat myself again, but this Asterix just didn't work for me at all. The music got on my nerves after constant repetition, the scarce number of good one-liners, the absence of Dogmatix, I really didn't like it. On the other hand, I do take into account that this is the first episode.
