There's no point in watching this movie with subtitles. If you don't speak French, you'll miss most of the humor, which consists of bringing together most of the big names in contemporary French cinema and having them speak French with excruciating English accents. The movie is a send-up of the English and their culture, as the French see it - in caricature form.
Other than that, there are a few endearing moments, such as when Obelix falls in love with Miss MacIntosh.
Fabrice Luchini is good as a spiteful Julius Caesar. Depardieu makes Obelix charming, as always.
It's interesting to compare Deneuve's caricature of Queen Elizabeth II here with the somewhat more nuanced one in Palais Royal.
Unexceptional, but pleasant.
