If you're being serious, not necessarily. The plot is actually a little more confusing in the movie than it is on stage, but the story is basically the same. You certainly won't miss anything in the show if you've not seen the movie.

If you were kidding, well, you know, I'm just a happy idiot. re: Should I see 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' or - - -

You dont need to watch the movie - actually so much sugar right in a row might do a person in. See the musical first and then if you feel you need to watch the movie after, do so.

To add... the movie feels like a bad acid trip. It's really trippy, you really don't need to bother. The show is less trippy, and if nothing else, Raúl is hot. But it is fun.

My opinion nothing of that show is worth 100 bucks, not even 50. I'm glad I student rushed it for 26 bucks and even then was not sure it's worth it. Unless you like having chitty chitty bang bang stuck in your head for WEEKS! re: Should I see 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' or - - -

Pretty sure he wrote this tongue-in-cheek. I think I remember reading that he loves the movie.
I hung out with Cheyenne Jackson in his dressing room waayyyyyy before he tickled D2.

Seeing the movie first is like asking "Should I see the film version of "Phantom of the Opera" before seeing the stage production?". When I was in NY last month I saw eight musicals and surprisingly found "Chitty" one of the more enjoyable shows I saw. The movie is dreadful though and I can't see viewing it beforehand necessary. My opinion....skip the movie since the book is the most problematic part of the show. The problem being that it's not hard to follow but overall a bore. At least the show has some great stage effects and is truly beautiful visually. There are also some fine performances.
