I liked this comedy. Good jokes! Filmmakers tried to show the human greed funny by funny way. And at the end of the film they showed that people are capable of generosity and mercy.
While Sinclair and his gamblers wager on anything, even on how much a call girl is willing to charge for crazy demands. When they board a private jet, Sinclair even bets on which passenger will vomit first in turbulent conditions. I think in real life rich and stupid people behave similar. Good mockery of them!
Teacher's note: Concise and well written. I'm not sure how many viewers of "Rat Race" got the high-roller jokes like the one in the plane. This author noticed. Well done.
