Chitty Chitty Bang Bang [1968] 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' is my second favourite after 'The Wizard Of Oz'. 'Chitty' stars Dick Van Dyke, Sally Ann Howes, Lionel Jeffries, James Robertson Justice and Robert Helpmann. Though this release onto DVD is the Full Screen version of this film i personally prefere it due to the fact this is a wonderful transfere to Disc, with it's lovely deep colours and so beautifully restored it looks like a modern film. Dick Van Dyke is superb as the children's father who rescues a vintage racing car from a junk yard and gets the car working again. He decides the car should be called 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' and he tells his children a story of how the car is magic and able to float and fly. Everything is so wonderful ... Read More:

this was up to the standard of comedy that you expect from the carry on team, very very funny, and one that is worth watching again, especially at this time of year

It's not as bad Cool as Ice or Spice World, but It Couldn't Happen Here will not make it to the history books anytime soon as a great cinematic achievement. The Pet Shop Boys can't act. Neil's passable, but Chris is uneasy on screen, apparent in the diner scene.
It Couldn't Happen Here seems to have a loose narrative involving a murderous priest, an existentialist dummy, and an odd pilot. Some of the plot circles around a fictional childhood of the boys. Most of it features Neil and Chris walking around while they are either performing their songs, or their songs play in the background. In this sense, it plays like a long form music video. Some of the imagery is neat, but most of it grows tiresome.
Everybody knows what to expect when the Mitchell brothers come a knockin'. Fists, pint glasses and furrowed brows fly around in a hurricane of East London fury for the majority of this blockbuster edition of EastEnders.
What I didn't expect, was to see the human side to these petty criminals. I was nearly moved to tears when Phil confessed that he spent ten years living as a woman in darkest Soho. I was positively sobbing when Grant revealed his undying love for his pet mongoose, tragically squashed underneath a passing Land Rover.
I cannot give away the ending but the twist involving Peggy, the unopened tin of Vaseline and a Cuban Cigar really tops off what is sure to be one of the best unacclaimed movies of all time. Excellent viewing.

this film isn't exactly what i would call a real classic. sure, it has all the usual actors but it doen't any humourous moments, like some of the other films in the series. The ending is just plain embarissing. it made me cringe.
watch this if you a fan.
My son adores this film, i haven't discovered why yet but i've been watching him very closely and i think that some of the scenes are a little to saturating for him to handle.

The patient is Francis Bigger, played by Frankie Howerd, and the line is a sly reference to the funniest scene in Carry On Nurse. It's probably the cleverest line in Carry On Doctor. Like Carry On Nurse, Carry On Doctor takes place in hospital and, as the movie says, is a bedpanorama of hospital life.
The long-running Carry On movies were bawdy, low-comedy, good-natured madhouses that featured a repertory company of comics we came to recognize instantly. Here, the company is made up of Kenneth Williams, Jim Dale, Hattie Jacques, Sid James, Joan Sims, Charles Hawtrey, Barbara Windsor and Bernard Bresslaw, among others. They play the patients, the doctors and the nurses at Finisham Hospital. If you relish jokes about bedpans and hernias, where any possible activity below ... Read More:

This is one of the very funniest videos I have ever brought. Mike Reid is a very funny man. He's funny when he was Frank Butcher in EastEnders and he more funnier when he's doing his stand up shows.
I recoginsed some bits of this video when Mike Reid got a "Gotcha" from Noel Edmonds on Noel's House Party in 1998 when he was using some of the lines for his radio commerical.
I think this video is "T'rific" as in his catchphrase and his autobiography
