Steve Martin reinvents the character of Inspector Clouseau, the hapless, bungling detective with the overwrought French accent and metaphorically huge head. With his black beret and Pepe LaPew moustache, the policeman is called on to solve a high-profile crime, making a series of hilariously clumsy missteps along the way. The story centres on a familiar murder-heist narrative. A famous soccer coach meets an untimely death by homicide, leaving behind Xania, his beautiful and famous fiancee (pop star Beyonce Knowles), who is devastated. Not only has Xania lost her intended, but she also finds that her engagement ring the fabled pink panther diamond is missing. Inspector Closeau's boss, Inspector Dreyfus (a topnotch Kevin Kline), decides to give the case to his incompetent inferior, scheming to take over the case at just the right moment in order to win the coveted Medal of Honour. With his reverent sidekick Ponton (Jean Reno) and adoring secretary Nicole (Emily Mortimer), Clouseau tackles the case as only he can, destroying evidence, fumbling names and pronunciations, insulting victims, and all the while attempting to charm the gorgeous Xania in his inimitably uproarious style.

This film is awful! Americans are not good at remaking British classics, Get Carter and Italian Job are just another coupleo examples. SteveMartn is dreaful as ... read more »
What is it about Inspector Clouseau that we just can’t let him go? Most iconic comic characters are really extensions of the clowns who played them – in the slapstick era it was always just another Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin or Harold Lloyd picture, regardless of the story. In modern times there aren’t many funny men who inspire that kind of loyalty. We’ll stay tuned to TV sit-coms for years, but on the big screen it’s rare to find a comedy role strong enough...
