Worth it just for the "Toy Box" music and dance sequence. The effects were also pretty good for a 1968 film.

It's based on the 1964 children's book by Ian Fleming, the author of the James Bond series, who made it his only such venture away from his usual spy tales. Director Ken Hughes ("The Brain Machine"/"The Trials of Oscar Wilde"/"Of Human Bondage") turns the family entertainment pic into a too cutesy musical (via tunes courtesy of the Sherman brothers) and dutifully executes a whimsical tale for the kiddies. It's co-written by Hughes, Roald Dahl and Richard Maibaum. The inventive sets by production designer Ken Adams are a special treat. It's set in Edwardian England, while the book was set in the present (a much better choice).

This film is like marry poppis, it's magical & it makes you feel that your in your own imagination of, other ideas that can be fantastic as, has always been an incredible actor & influence to me. This film like every other classic films & his tv show, has been in my childhood since I was two years old. How much I miss my vhs copy gosh, kids today really need to recognize real films of the golden decades, & this film is one out of so many that can be a perfect reminder of what happiness really is when we look back at what memories are made of.

I love this movie. The movie is so crisp and clear on the Blu-ray and the sound is fantastic! And since this movie was made when they still had an intermission in the middle of the movie (because the movies were nice and long) the Blu-ray is able to have the entire movie on one disc, instead of having to change discs at the Intermission.

I loved this movie as a child and bought it on dvd, which was great to watch, but disappointing that only the opening scene was in the wide-screen format and the rest of the movie was "formatted to fit your tv".I took a chance on the bluray since it was remastered and am glad I did. The entire movie is now wide-screen format. Haven't watched the entire movie yet, but fired up in my projection-based home theater and i looks great!Can't wait for the entire family to experience this with me!

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is a classic film--one of my all-time favorites. Go on a whimsical journey with an eccentric inventor (Dick Van D y k e - Best Buy flagged his name as inappropriate language-LOL) and his family to a country that has banned children. Benny Hill makes an appearance as the toymaker. Musical numbers (singing/dancing) are entertaining. Similar to the classic Disney Films of the 60s & 70s, this is safe family fare that is worth watching over and over again.

[Lead actor] is a legend (wow they made me censor his name). His routine as a mad inventor and loving father still feels fresh.There are plenty of memorable songs for my kid: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Toot Sweets, P.O.S.H. The downside is your be humming them to yourself all day.If you have young kids, this is a staple for your movie library.

Great Movie, a classic. relive your childhood (remember the car toy you'd get in the box of cereal!) or share this timeless classic with your kids, grandkids, or adults who need a walk down memory lane that will leave them humming "Truly Scrumptious" the rest of the day!

This is an upgrade for me. I only had it on DVD. What a difference a Blu-Ray and a LG 4K tv makes!!Don't Stream!! Please support home videos!! Support 3D!! Don't give them power over what you watch by depending on someone elses server to keep you're videos on.. Use the cloud as a back-up to the Hard Copy you have in hand!!!

I purchased the Blu-ray to replace a very old VHS copy. This is one of the most iconic family films of the 60s, along with Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music that all children should enjoy - when they are small and for the rest of their lives.

My wife picked this up while she was shopping for another movie for my son. One of those classic movies that we remember watching as kids, and singing along to the songs. It's fun to relive those memories now that we have kids of our own.

A great classic movie to watch with your family. Proving that with a little imagination and a dream most anything can be possible. A combination movie of comedy and musical together. Would recommend.

This one of my all time favorite movies. My kids love it just as much as I do and I would let any family know that if they wanted a good family movie that they would fall in love with it would definitely be this one.....

Fantastic movie brought to you from the mind of James Bond writer Ian Fleming. Dick VanDyke is masterful at his craft, with a Vaudeville flare for dance, singing and acting. A work of art.

This was one of my favorite movies growing up and I have many fond memories of watching it with my family. There's now a little one in the family and I couldn't wait for the chance to show him the movie. It's now one of his favorites and we love singing and dancing along!

Another great walk down memory lane for those of you who grew up with this gem starring (a person who's name Best Buy will not let me submit) (WOW). The transfer/Audio are five star. Pick it up and relive the magic of your childhood.

I grew up watching this movie multiple times as a kid with my little brother and sister so when I found this at BestBuy I just had to get it. Looks amazing in 1080p and the sound is flawless. Must have for any musical film lovers.

I have wanted this movie for a long time but it was locked up in the vault before I could purchase it. I am very glad that I cruised the movie aisle at Best Buy and they had it! Kids to grandparents would love to watch this movie!
