The funniest film to come along since "South Park," and one that succeeds in a more difficult and satisfying way.

An outrageously silly movie that makes me laugh.

This is my second favorite movie EVER, One of the best comedy MovieTalk there is, if not THE BEST.

Esta fue mi película favorita por muchos años, y si bien es cierto que no se puede decir que sea una obra maestra del género del cine, es una película que de principio a fin no ceso de reir. Sales con una sonrisa de verla. Tiene un gran elenco, un argumento que me encanta y sobre todo tiene acción, aventura, intriga, giros de guion... Muy recomendada para pasar una gran **** de netflix and chill.

Rat Race isn't a stupid movie -- it's an aggressively stupid movie that journeys into realms of absurdity that are, well, aggressively funny.

Hits its silly stride early and never shifts into a higher gear.

For every inspired bit -- Templeton playing chauffeur to 40 I Love Lucy-era Lucille Ball impersonators -- there's one that falls spectacularly flat.

It lumbers from one scene to the next with the stop-and-start mistiming generally seen in the outtakes shown at the end of the "Cannonball Run" movies, which this picture resembles in spirit.

There's nothing more enervating than a stupid film with only random, and perhaps accidental, flashes of smarts; the rare prescient moments only serve to highlight how banal and vacant the rest of the movie is, especially when it stoops to conquer the gross-out market bled dry by the Farrelly Brothers and their myriad acolytes.

Very funny and interesting. There waiting for grand dad to kick the bucket. Before he dies he sets up a quest for them to have a race. He gives them clues and they have to be the first person to figure it out and get to him first. Whoever is the first on wins his estate. It's a race, it's a race!

Rat Race had potential to be a funny movie with a hilarious cast, but it's mostly lost in the script and sight gags that don't pan out as much as they should.

Totally non-sense movie. This movie had the potential to be funny. It's much annoying than funny.

Basic plot is a Rich Casino owner setups up a competition with Random people in the Casino to race to a destination where $1 million is up for grabs. Now the main issue. Every single person involved in this has issues or is completely insane. There is not a single sane moment. The film explodes in Slapstick style with idiotic moments throughout. Its almost as if they had an stupidity play book and were marking things off as they go. A lot of the jokes are pretty tasteless. The characters get a bit of development throughout but its not enough for you to side with anyone. This may be the point of the film. The film closes in a friendly manner but the film just doesn't have any redeeming features. I really would not recommend this to anyone.
