Review of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968) by Lauri Ailane — 29 Oct 2009
FIRST OFF PEOPLE THIS IS NOT A DISNEY FILM. THIS MOVIE WAS A MGM, (METRO GOLDWYN MAYER), FILM. I REPEAT NOT DISNEY! Ok now that is cleared up, who would have ever dreamed that the two incredible people who have brought us to know and love James Bond was behind this fun filled, Family Musical.
Yes it is true. This was an Ian Fleming Film and like his success with Bond worked with Albert R. Broccoli. If you have ever wondered why this movie does sound like a Disney film, (the music that is), That would be becuase The gantlemen who did the score for this film also did the music for Mary Poppin's.
Better known as the Sherman Brothers. Also the Music Director worked on both films, Irwin Kostal. It is very understandable why people assume that it is a Disney film, but it really isn't. I do recommend this film for the kid in all of us.
It is just a well rounded film and continues to remain enterianing and a delight to this day. If you did not see this film as a child, it isn't to late. Sit down relax and watch this film. I am sure you will enjoy yourself if you do.
