About this deal

Zucker also did a nice job with the supporting cast members, and kept them in the story only as long as they were needed.

But Rat Race has definite creativity and flows, for the most part, from start to finish without a hitch. details, but the work here is a far cry from some of the finest catalogue releases Paramount has released of late. Some of the sequences came close to crossing the line of tastefulness, but for the most part Breckmen and Zucker kept it in fair territory. But the edge enhencement is a problem (albeit not that big of a problem) and shouldn’t be an issue here.

Some ideas went a little too far or went on for too long, but never to the point where it became unbearable, and even the notorious moral of the story is wholesome and well played. Reviewers and moviegoers alike didn't know what to do with a "Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"-type film in 2001, but on home video this has developed quite a following. Seth Green and Vince Vieluf cannot get their lines right and just keep laughing, though Vince seems to be more on cue than Seth.

On occasion, he did spent a little too much time on one group, to the point where the viewer might begin to wonder about where the other characters were at in the story — particularly Enrico. Running about 20 minutes, we are treated to plenty of scenes from the movie, clips of the actors and scenes from the actual making of the movie (hence the name). Updated daily and in real-time, we track all high-def disc news and release dates, and review the latest disc titles. Filled with random characters and unlikely occurrences, this film is sure to take the viewer on an enjoyable, laughable journey. An extremely loose remake of 1963’s classic multi-star comedy It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World, this screwball comedy is directed by Jerry Zucker (Ghost), who himself comprises one third of the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker comedy team of Naked Gun fame.Furthermore, he never allowed any character (supporting or otherwise) to become overexposed to the point where they became annoying or unfairly dominant. Most of it is fall-out-of-your-chair hilarious, but unfortunately I do agree with hewylewis that a couple of the jokes have aged quite badly.

Environmental din disappoints, particularly on casino floors where there's little truly immersive ambience to be found. Ever the gentleman, Peter offers her space in his apartment and they string up a modesty curtain to divide their separate domains. Breckman did follow a similar storyline from the 1963 comedic classic It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World, and it’s interesting to follow the similarities between the two. He gets a one-room walk-up and then meets Peggy, a dancer down on her luck who needs a place to stay. John Cleese stars as an eccentric casino owner who devises a contest pitting six teams against each other in a race to claim two million dollars from a locker in New Mexico.

Paramount Home Media Distribution will release on Blu-ray Jerry Zucker's comedy Rat Race (2001), starring Rowan Atkinson, John Cleese, Whoopi Goldberg, Cuba Gooding Jr. illegal, morally ambiguous, funny, and frantic means available to them, various others catch wind of the adventure and join them on the quest. Initially, each of these competitors tries to get to Silver City by air, but when the Cody brothers destroy a radar tower, all the competitors are forced to find other and more hilarious means of transportation. Duane and his brother Blaine (Vince Vieluf) find themselves tangled up with a greedy key maker (Silas Weir Mitchell).
