Ken Adam's sets are inventive, but the special effects are shoddy, the songs instantly forgettable, and the leisurely length an exquisite torture.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang contains about the best two-hour children's movie you could hope for, with a marvelous magical auto and lots of adventure and a nutty old grandpa and a mean Baron and some funny dances and a couple of moments when you've just GOT to cover your face and peek between your fingers, it's so scary.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is a wild film to say the least. Dick Van Dyke is entertaining as ever dancing, singing, driving, and flying his way through the film. With the many zany characters and twist and turns, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is the perfect movie to experience with the whole family.
