      Terry Awful. Probably worst movie of all time??? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Historically accurate, great costume, pretty good acting, its one of those little hidden gems. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review camille l Vercingétorix est sorti un an après Gladiator. Et autant le film de Ridley Scott n'est pas très bien, autant celui de Jacques Dorfman le fait passer pour Citizen Kane. L'intention du film est vraiment intéressante, cette époque étant peu étudiée par le cinéma. Mais Vercingétorix est un film loupé de bout en bout, c'en est presque une oeuvre à étudier. Entre la musique techno, les plans à la Malick du Prisunic et l'interprétation (Christophe Lambert y croise Denis Charvet, Vincent Moscato et Jean-Pierre Rives sans que ce soit un match de rugby), Vercingétorix est un immense ratage, un navet même pas drôle au second degré. Non seulement le film se prend constamment au sérieux, mais il est aussi d'une incompétence folle. Il faut voir l'arrivée de l'armée romaine lors de la bataille finale, digne d'une cinématique d'Age of Empire 2. Il y a un vrai bon film à faire sur cette époque et ce n'est pas ce que nous a livré Jacques Dorfman. [Vincent Moscato s'appelle Moscatos dans le film et c'est la meilleure vanne du monde sauf que le film n'est pas une comédie] Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review matthew b What the hell is Max von Sydow doing in this movie? Watching 5 minutes of The Gaul (VERCINGÉTORIX) was a enough to torture me, it's that bad. The English dubbing is atrocious, the acting is bad and Christopher Lambert's wig is laughable. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Historically illiterate - story is utter nonsense, very little is period appropriate and the film includes such basic mistakes as using the word "aquaduct" where they mean "viaduct". Typically hopeless acting from Christopher Lambert. The rest of the cast try but production standards are very low and dialogue is poor. Whole thing is barely watchable. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member A terrible movie with terrible costumes. If this is the French answer to Braveheart then they really have a long way to go. But if you are intoxicated and having fun it's a barrel of laughs. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
