Like many slapstick comedies, The Great Race (1965) is good for some light-hearted laughter, and, in this case, some lovely and well-choreographed fencing scenes, although I wish there’d been a bit more from Natalie Wood’s character, just to balance the fun duel between Tony Curtis and Ross Martin.
But other than that, it’s just unremarkable fun. If you don’t like slapstick, you won’t like this. But if you do, you’ve probably already seen this.
