Written by Iam Fleming, the author who brought you the James Bond series of books and movies, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is a hearty, honest, sincere family comedy adventure, with classic songs for you to sing alongside - karaoke style if you will! The story is centered around an absent minded,crackpot inventor called Caractacus Potts (Dick Van Dyke). Father to Jeremy (Adrian Hall) and Jemima (Heather Ripley), he buys a dilapidated car called Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, renovates it to it's former glory much to the childrens delight and sets off, taking the children and Truly Scrumptious (Sally Ann Howes)who the children 'bumped' into, with him for a picnic on the beach....but the story doesn't end there, flying cars, dancing, singing, a sweet factory, puppet dances, an evil childcatcher, good overturning evil, it's all included in this classic masterpiece. With mild peril, and a lot of fun and laughter the adventures of these 4 characters are timeless and will still be seen as a classic in 50 or 100 years time. Capture this fantastic piece of history on DVD and preserve it in your collection. It's fabulous for rainy day entertainment whether you're 3 or 93!Read full review
The kids love this film and to get a copy of the DVD, with words and extra film footage, a CD to sing along too and a chitty car was fab, all three kids take turns and has been a great sharing package.
The car is the real star of this film - I WANT ONE!!! Saw this at the cinema first time in '68 (I think) and loved it. A couple of the songs a pretty sickly but that might be a bloke thing. It's nothing like the book but who cares!? If it were a choice between Chitty, the Batmobile and Bond's DB5 it would be a very difficult decision! - though sadly not a dilemma I'm ever likely to be faced with!
