Review of Rat Race

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 that's okay, but I'm sure the rest, if not the whole thing would only entertain kids with no taste in comedy. Jon Lovit's story was probably the best (it was the funniest). Seth Green's story was really boring, and very predictable. I didn't need a crystal ball to tell what was going to happen to them. Cuba Godding Jr.'s story was just as boring. The typical stuff. It's very unoriginal altogether. Whoopie Goldberg's story is average, just like the vast majority of this film. However, Rowan Atkinson's story had it's moments, but you couldn't help but think A scene of Mr. Bean accidentally got put into Rat Race, so it's too late for Atkinson; he's already a type-cast...

I've seen much worse though. This film wouldn't be in my "worst films list". Although Lovit's High School High is straight in there.............

I think this film is really average. It's one of those film you would only watch if you were bored, I was at the time, so I'm only going on my experience. Otherwise - Avoid.
