Francis Ford Coppola’s Dracula, in which she plays one of the vampire’s wives, almost made a surprise, same average. But he got it “only” 24,311 ratings, compared to 77,368 for Asterix and Obelix: Mission Cleopatra. Whoever therefore takes the cake.

Considered the best (if not the only) live-action adaptation of the adventures of Asterix and Obelix, Alain Chabat’s feature film, in which she plays the Queen of Egypt, is also the eleventh biggest success at the French box office. , with 14,404,829 viewers.

The rest of the cast is equally great (Monica Bellucci, Jamel Debuz, Gerard DarmonAlain Chabat, Edward Baer …). Very good ideas in staging and humor. Dialogues that have become iconic. We laugh from beginning to end.”

Sylvain V.: “Finally an Asterix that we can see without bad criticism or guilty conscience. Spectacular special effects, spectacular chases, this is the real Asterix and Obelix. Original and new scenario. A new view of the world of Asterix and Obelix. Brilliant decor, amazing even worthy of Asterix and Obelix, A rare gem, Alain Chabat’s masterpiece!!

See it at least twice so that you don’t miss any humor

Dark Heaven: “I did not expect such a successful second part! This film is fresh, entertaining and fun. I liked the study of dialogues, which are full of humor and subtlety, all highlighted by repartee and wink. It is a bit unusual compared to the historical period of the script. The cast of actors gives the film the most, which It wears so distinctively that it has already become iconic.

Monica Bellucci is attractive and sexy as Cleopatra. Depardieu is still as good as Obelix. In short, a pure moment of excitement and relaxation to be enjoyed without moderation and intellectual laughter is guaranteed! Watch it at least twice so you don’t miss the humor and as many times as you want for an anti-stress evening alone, with family or friends! I will ask you for more. It’s definitely my favorite French comedy.”

Louis DCiné: “I love this movie. Mission Cleopatra is very respectful of the comic book. We also immediately recognize the cartoon. Asterix and Cleopatra. For me, this is the best Asterix and Obelix adventure movie ever on the big screen. The costumes are great, the Egyptian sets are great, and the cast is great. Almost all of them bring humor, especially Jamel Debuz as the number one. Alain Chabat hits hard and signs one of the best French comedies with a very good script.”

boscopax: “Chabat is the only one to date who has succeeded in reconciling film and comics. The gags seem to come straight from the pictures, and each actor is brilliantly in place. All the actors have been carefully chosen and each one of them represents what we hoped for: we clearly saw Bellucci, as Cleopatra, Debise, as Numerobis, Darmon, Laub… everyone is there, hats off to Chabat.”

Audrey L. “Each line is iconic (…) the story is not lacking in peppy, wild music (“I feel good” by James Brown!) and a finale full of humor and action apotheosis. A film that will make young and old laugh, neither vulgar nor silly, which combines The weirdest and most twisted dialogue… We get Asterix and Obelix: Mission Cleopatra.”

Eric C.: “Undoubtedly one of the best French comedies ever made, with colossal resources, a spectacular 5-star cast, constant humor Alain Chabat signs his masterpiece, a spirited homage to the legendary comic. Goskin and UderzoBringing in modernity with a surprisingly fluid narrative rhythm, as wit, wit, even in the sets and costumes are constant (…) Bravo has entered the pantheon of history on this comic masterpiece of French cinema. 7th art in the Gallic style.”
