Spencer Tracy heads a hilariously zany cast that stars Hollywoods greatest comedians (Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Buddy Hackett, Ethel Merman, Mickey Rooney, Dick Shawn, Phil Silvers, Terry-Thomas and Jonathan Winters) and features cameo appearances by every joker and jester in the business, from Don Knotts and Jerry Lewis to The Three Stooges. Nominated for 6 Oscars*, Its A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World is an explosive motion picture experience (Variety)! On a winding desert highway. Eight vacation-bound motorists share an experience that alters their plans and their lives! After a mysterious stranger divulges the location of a stolen fortune, they each speed off in a mind-bending, car-bashing race for the loot and the most side-splitting laughfest in history
1963: Best Special Effects (winner). Best Cinematography, Best Sound, Best Song, Best Score and Best Editing.

This film is an absolute classic of 1960s humour - off beat, irreverent and perfectly suitable for families. The script is fresh and the antics of the various protagonists are a delight. It's also great fun playing "Spot the comedian" with so many famous faces popping up (some in 'don't blink or you'll miss it" cameos). Younger viewers should will love it and parents can relax and possibly grow nostalgiac for a time when comedy writers took their craft seriously.

I bought this for my husband who had often talked about seeing this with his father and said they both were in hysterics watching it...so very nostalgic for him and another evening of hysterical laughter..a movie well worth watching for a fun evening no matter what age.

My parents took us when we were little kids and we saw It's a Mad Mad Mad World in 1964. I don't remember much about it because I was only 6 years old back then, but I do remember the audience in the movie theater laughing continuously.
I bought the DVD, which was remastered in DTS Surround Sound, a couple of months ago and it's definitely a good comedy classic to have. My parents came over and they watched it on my High Definition 52" DLP TV, with Surround Sound and they loved it. There's never a dull moment in it because it's good clean comedy that doesn't have to rely on vulgar language, nudity or violence to win the approval of crowds. They definitely don't make movies like that anymore, that's why I gave it a rating of 10.
Although most of the actors in it have passed on, I still love the comedy and acting styles of Milton Berle, Spencer Tracy, Ethel Merman, Buddy Hackett, Terry Thomas and others, plus there are cameo appearances in there with Jerry Lewis, Jack Benny and The Three Stooges.
