Synopsis
Asterix: The Mansions of the Gods (Astérix : Le Domaine des dieux, 2014) — watch online on iFILM. This French-Belgian animated feature directed by Louis Clichy adapts René Goscinny's classic Gaulish comic with full 3D animation. Caesar skips swords this time. His new plan is real estate.
A luxury Roman housing estate goes up right next to the indomitable village — marble apartments, heated baths, shopping. The idea is to seduce the Gauls into becoming Romans without a single fight. The residents waver. Asterix sees the trap clearly; convincing his neighbours is another matter.
It was the first Asterix feature rendered entirely in 3D, and the comedy lands on two frequencies: slapstick and Obelix for younger viewers, sharper jokes about gentrification and consumerism for adults coming along for the ride. Stream Asterix: The Mansions of the Gods (2014) online on iFILM.
