Pros: the songs and dances!
Cons: dick van dykes accent!

This is a brilliant film. Its quite old (1968) but it will never ever lose its appeal. It stars Dick Van Dyke as Caractacus Potts who's like a nutty inventor type person, and look out for Peggy Mitchell in the hair cutting scene! He buys this clapped out...
