About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, fast-moving animated comedy packed with running gags, gentle cultural teasing, and nonstop Roman-bashing; Not for you if you dislike broad stereotypes or older animation; fans of Lucky Luke may click with it.

Pros: lots of laughs; playful British satire; family-friendly adventure | Cons: some jokes lost; dated animation look; uneven voice dubbing
