I picked up a Thai import of the recentish film a couple of years ago, and I genuinely like it. Yes it's enormously silly but somehow I find it in keeping with the spirit of the comics, some of which are quite silly too. Overall it's got a sense of fun to it, it's quite nicely shot, and as pleasant a way as any to while away an evening.
One query - is the Vaillant test track where Julie Wood gets her test run a real track - and if so which one?
I haven't seen the children's cartoon but recently found the 1960s TV series on DVD in a local store - now it's good. Admittedly it's a bit dated, and some of the plots are pretty far fetched, but there's superb footage (including quite a few shots of Howmets, which must be reasonably rare), a soundtrack that captures the spirit of the period, and all in all an entertaining experience. Worth tracking down, even by the non French speakers among us (no subtitles I'm afraid...)
