Another classic film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, i loved this film when I was younger and as I have grown up I still love it and watch it when its on the telly at Christmas or on a bank holiday.
It is cheesy and everything but you will be guaranteed to be tapping you toes and singing along to the classic songs from Truly Scrumptious, toot sweets and the chitty chitty bang bang but to name a few.
The story is about Professor Potts played by Dick Van Dyke when his children Jeremy and Jemima found a rusty old banger in the scrap yard and they manage to convince they dad to buy it. Professor Potts then restores the car to a magical car called chitty chitty bang bang which is a magical flying car, which is one of his better inventions as he has a windmill full of gadgets he has created but none of them seem to work the way that they should.
Along with Truly Scrumptious the children and Professor Potts go on an picnic to the beach when they go on a magical adventure together to a castle where the king and queen do not like children so they are banished to under the castle and live in a cave, which is where all the drama unfolds. I do not want to give the story away too much.
My favourite part of the film is when professor Potts go to the sweet factory that Truly's father runs and tries to sell his invention of the toot sweet, which unfortunately does not go as well as planned.
This is a classic that will have children for years to be watching it and singing along, it a film that you will never get tired off. What's more they have now created it into a stage show at the west end.

Summary: a great film for all ages
