This should be a good year for Asterix lovers, with the publication of a
new album (by Ferri and Conrad) on October 24th, and the release (outside France) of a new
animated film with an original story... if you're lucky enough to be
able to see it.
I have reviewed the film The Assassin, directed by Hou Hsian-hsien, 2015, not because I particularly enjoyed it, but because I felt able to describe why I didn't. The review's below the break.
