Fans of Goscinny and Uderzo’s French comic book novels featuring Astérix, the power-juice guzzling Gaul, and his humongously strong sidekick Obelix, will be pleased to see the pair bounce back on the big screen in Asterix And The Vikings. Kinoo, in the Animted News Forum says that “the studio which did this movie hired the animators from Disney Studios Montreuil who were fired after Disney decided to shut down the 2D studio”. A French-language trailer can be found at Allociné’s website.
