Old movie about a crazy flying car

About 11 years ago I remember seeing a VHS movie about some kids and their dad who made a crazy flying car. The car helped the man rescue his kids from an evil dungeon. I think the dad worked in a candy factory, too. I was about four or five, so I don't remember much about it, but I recall watching it many times because I loved it. It wasn't a cartoon.

Many of those details match the 1968 musical Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It involves a flying car, the father is an inventor who creates a new type of candy, and the children are captured by the evil Child Catcher and imprisoned.

Fun fact, the original novel that this movie was based on was written by Ian Fleming, the creator of James Bond.

@RobertColumbia: and the movie produced by 'Cubby' Broccoli, who later produced the Bond films (except the 'rogue' Never Say Never Again and the parody version of Casino Royale)

From the title alone, it could have been either this or one of the Flubber movies.
