Druids is a film first released on August 31, 2001, directed by Jacques Dorfmann. It stars Christopher Lambert, Klaus Maria Brandauer, Inès Sastre, Bernard-Pierre Donnadieu, and Max von Sydow.

The film portrays a pivotal part of the life of a benevolent Gallic chieftain named Vercingetorix in the year 60 B.C. when his village is threatened by the advancing armies of Rome.

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

One day, the Chieftain's peaceful way of life is disrupted when the Roman Empire, led by Julius Caesar, declare war on the druid village.

Before the battle with the Roman Legions, Vercingetorix (Lambert) is touched when he is re-united with a childhood love. He is inspired by this meeting, and so helps to prepare the Druids for the approaching battle with the Romans.

To do this they use chickens, vegetables and par-attractive women to confuse and lure the Romans out of their famed defenses.

SomethingAwful.com voted the film -45 using their voting system, which is slightly worse than their average rating of around -35 to -40.
