The first frame shows a funny-looking Egyptian with a deadpan expression. "Asterix and Cleopatra" is something special. But don't take my 'history' with the film as a bias just watch it and you'll see that Disney had not the monopoly of entertainment, laughs and catchy songs. I grew up with it, my parents did (that's for posterity), I can recite it line by line, watch it again and again, I still laugh and may even discover subtle details in the process. In the "Movies-that-Made-my-Childhood" anthology, "Asterix and Cleopatra" is the number one. Reviewed by ElMaruecan82 10 /10 An 'epic historical drama' where every moment is a comic relief.

This amusing movie is accompanied to lively musical score by Gerard Calvi with a catching leitmotif on the start and the ending. The cartoon movie brilliantly captures the outrageous adventures, tongue in cheek, satire, comedy from original story with the same title and drawn by Albert Uderzo and writing credits by Rene Goscinny. It contains some customs critical about actual way of life and modern anachronisms that's common thing in comic books.
Although contains a primitive drawing, however being better developed than former entry ¨Asterix the Gaul¨, both of them produced by Raymond Leblanc. This is a fine adventure with hilarious moments here and there, and has Asterix and his inseparable friend Obelix traveling to ancient Egypt to help Cleopatra build a fantastic palace and fighting, as always, against the stupid Romans, pirates and an ambitious architect. But just like the local pirates, he hasn't counted on Asterix and Obelix. When Julius Caesar gets wind of the project succeeding, he has the building site attacked by his troops in order to win the bet and not lose face. En route to Egypt, the ship is met by a gang of pirates, and as always the pirate vessel is sunk. In order to help and protect the old Druid, Asterix and Obelix accompany him on his journey to Egypt. Then the Egyptian architect calls upon an old friend to help him out: The magician Druid Panoramix from Gaul, who brews a fantastic potion that gives supernatural strength. He is to build the palace and be covered in gold or, if not, his fate is to be eaten by crocodiles. Since all her architects are either busy otherwise or too conservative in style, this ambivalent honor falls to a botcher architect. She vows to build a fabulous palace for Caesar within a short period of time. Meanwhile the Egyptian Queen Cleopatra bets against the Roman Emperor, Julius Caesar, that her people are still great, even if the times of the Pharaohs has long passed. And of course ¨Cacofonix¨,the Bard,opinion is divided as to his musical gifts,he thinks he's a genius,everyone else thinks he's unspeakable,but so long as he doesn't speak,let alone sing,everybody likes him. ¨Panoramix¨,the venerable village druid, gathers mistletoe and brews magic potions,his speciality is the potion which gives the drinker superhuman strength although also has other recipes up his sleeve.¨Abraracurcix¨,the chief of the tribe,majestic,brave and hot-tempered,the old warrior is respected by his enemies,he has only one fear,he's afraid the sky may fall on his head tomorrow,but as he always says,'Tomorrow never comes'. ¨Obelix¨ his inseparable friend,he's a Menhir delivery-man by trade and addicted to wild boar,he's always ready to drop everything and go off on a new adventure with Asterix,so long as there's wild boar to eat, and plenty of fighting. In the village are our friends : ¨Asterix¨,the hero of this adventure,he's a shrewd,cunning little warrior,all perilous missions are immediately entrusted to him. Gaul is entirely occupied by the Roman.Well,not entirely.One small village of indomitable Gauls still holds out against the invaders.and life is not easy for the Roman legionaries who garrison the fortified camps. Asterix books are a popular comics with the same title about a village of indomitable Gauls who resist Caesar's invasion thanks to a magic potion that renders them invulnerable supermen.
