Not great at all. The odd joke that's okay, but it's a lame spoof. The film has a big name cast, that's it. So it could easily make people think it's gonna be good, well you'd be disappointed.

The story follows a bunch of people that go hunting for this money. There's about 5 different stories going on about how they are trying to get to the money. This film has the odd joke or to t... read more

I simply love this film. The whole idea of it is great, and the cast pulls it off perfectly, including Seth Green, Cuba Gooding Jr.,Whoopi Goldberg, and a few more. No flaws are coming to mind. But please do note that this is not one of those masterpiece films, that will win a bunch of awards and be a classic, Don't hope for any of that. This is just a film for the whole family, or by yourself to... read more

What an amazing movie! Set in vegas, with coins distributed to certain people who will become Rats themselves in search of the big cheese. Two million dollars waits in a locker at a train station in Silver City, New Mexico, and each of the coin winners has a key to that locker; but getting there will be an epic and funny battle in which other people are betting. Watching and tracking them like Rat... read more

"Re-watch - Nov. 7th I have a blast every time I watch this stupid movie, and I wanted the kiddo to see it before it leaves Max (granted, I own a copy on DVD, but still). Rowan Atkinson steals every scene he's in and it's just a fun time watching these people jump through hoops to road trip to reach $2 million dollars. She laughed almost as often as I did, and when we got to the ending she asked me if we could turn the sound off, much to my joy. Sure it's a little over-the-top at times, but that"

"A comedy about a random group of people who race across the world in search of a hidden fortune. Add some cryptic clues, various obstacles, people looking to join the race, and others trying to eliminate the competition and you might have yourself a series."

"Re-watch - Dec. 17th After the kiddo went to bed I wanted to watch something & picked this since it's fairly short. Rat Race isn't a great movie by any means, but it's a lot of fun & obviously inspired by It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. I find the jokes work most of the time for me, even if some of the situations get beyond ridiculous to the point the film feels more like a cartoon at times. My only real gripe is that the ending involves a performance by Smashmouth, with their most overplayed,"
