What makes it different from others?

Excellent, a Must See

Dreadfully Boring

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Casting, costumes, locations, lighting, sets, stunts and everyone that makes a movie what it is are all superb. And Steve Martin and whoever else was involved with the re-creation, script and direction of Inspector Clouseau's character are comedy geniuses. It's so very funny, i think my favourite detail is his voice raising incredulity of (in PP2) why the Tornado suddenly "stops". it makes me laugh just thinking of it. along with the hilarious deliveries of;a kitten? who cares (when Ponton says it may be a trap)i think i'm very good at it (insight into Pope being spiritual)good one the case is closed then i am probably sitting on it (hat)and there is so much more, the couple of seconds scene of Clouseau walking from his taxi to Hotel entrance to meet Beyoncey is perfection. A character of great depth has been created.Watch without prejudice

First of all, let me just start be saying that I absolutely love the "Pink Panther" movies. I love every single one of them (except for "Son of the Pink Panther" which was...ugh). The only ones I haven't seen are "A Shot in the Dark", "Inspector Clouseau" , "Revenge of the Pink Panther" and "The Return of the Pink Panther" I will say, "The Pink Panther Strikes Again" is my favorite out of all of them. Peter Sellers is perhaps my favorite Clouseau out of all of them.Here's one thing I can say about the Steve Martin version: funny. I'll say it again, it's funny as heck. I enjoyed the movie all together. My brother hates Peter Sellers' Clouseau in the originals but he likes Steve Martin's version. To all those critics who hate this movie: Shut. Up. About. This. Movie.It's hilarious and completely stays true to the originals. Overall, "The Pink Panther" is a hilarious comedy. If you haven't seen it, go check it out. It's worth watching, in my opinion. So I'm going to give this movie a 10/10.Seriously, go watch it. That's all I can say.

Before I went to see a movie, I knew it was going to be a comedy, a criminal plot. So I'm not expecting a detectives investigate. I wanted to relax, laugh and spend time. But the movie can only spend your time. The movie has a lot of celebrities such as Steve Martin, Jean Reno and Beyonce ... Jean Reno is a great actor, but he does not correspond to this role. While Steve Martin is doing well in this role. The story is nothing special. What I didn't like about the movie is bad humor. Humor boils down to the fact that Jacques Clouseau (played by Steve Martin)embarrass you in any situation and behaves like retard. It's not funny. Jacques Clouseau character was so irritating that I wanted to give my view. Maybe this will be an interesting movie for children of 10 years. I do not recommend this movie unless you do not like this kind of humor.

Moviegoers whose notion of physical comedy ends with Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler will probably roar with laughter over Steve Martin's new version of "The Pink Panther." Viewers with slightly longer memories will ponder just when Martin got so unfunny.I can't think of any comedy series that is in less need of resurrection than the "Pink Panther" movies. The very first one (1964) is utterly hilarious, with Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau, so obsessed with finding a jewel thief –- and so frustrated by the lack of affection from his wife, who turns out to be two-timing him with the thief –- that he falls all over himself in frustration.Unfortunately, "Panther's" original sequel, "A Shot in the Dark" (1965), established the template for the rest of the Clouseau comedies: a clueless, accent-hindered incompetent who never wants to admit that he destroys everything in his path. Writer-director Blake Edwards beat the formula to death for a half-dozen more movies (some released long after Sellers' death). And now Martin does his best to revive a corpse one more time.This is supposedly a prequel to the Edwards/Sellers movies, but it follows the same tired pattern. A famous pink diamond resembling a panther is stolen. French Chief Inspector Dreyfus (et tu, Kevin Kline?) hires Clouseau as a red herring to cover up his own detective work, but Clouseau unwittingly scores major points against his scheming boss.So much for plot. The rest of the movie is the kind of tired physical comedy that endlessly unravels like so much cheap fabric. Once, there was the like of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, whose physical humor expressed their personalities and who took their own falls. By contrast, look at every single Clouseau pratfall in this movie. There's a shot of Martin starting to do harm to himself, a shot of a stuntman dressed up like Steve Martin and taking a tremendous fall, followed by a shot of Martin nonchalantly regaining his balance.Has Martin forgotten his own movie-comedy history? Like the silent greats, his physical comedy used to be the expression of an otherworldly, ethereal comedian, culminating in what I thought was his finest movie, "L.A. Story" (1991). But over the years, he's been too busy making what one cynic has called "mansion comedies." You know -– Steve Martin needs another mansion, so he makes another dumb slapstick movie.As for the rest of the new "Panther," poor Jean Reno plays Martin's unwilling sidekick as though he is wondering what happened to his own movie career. Only Beyonce Knowles –- in a surprising nod to modernity –- makes much of an impression as, natch, a sultry singer.
