This is How Movies Should Be Made

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

The Pink Panther has been stolen once again. Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) is assigned the case despite the protest of Chief Inspector Dreyfus (Herbert Lom). There is rumored terrorist threats against Clouseau and his plane disappears. TV journalist Marie Jouvet (Joanna Lumley) interviews some of Clouseau's compatriots.Blake Edwards stitches together this movie after Peter Sellers' death. He uses deleted scenes and archival footage to put Sellers into the movie. The overall feel is incredibly disjointed and distancing. Some of the footage is fun. I love Clouseau's fight with Cato but it's better to watch it in the original. This is weirdly unenjoyable movie.

Sixth Pink Panther film carries on despite the death of star Peter Sellers, as Clouseau goes missing after his plane goes into the sea, since he was assigned to investigate the third theft of the Pink Panther diamond. A news reporter decides to do an extended profile on Clouseau's life, interviewing many old costars from the films(like Herbert Lom, Burt Kwouk, David Niven(back as Sir Charles Litton) and his wife(but Clouseau's ex-wife) played again by Capucine(though not the same wife from "Return" that was played by Catherine Schell! Can Sir Charles be a bigamist?) Disjointed and largely pointless film is made watchable by the use of outtakes of Sellers from previous films to tell the story, and sell the idea of him "appearing". Doesn't really work, but not as bad as some believe, though it is the last one worth watching(Did not bother with "Curse" or "Son")

Some see this as a tribute to Sellers, some see it as an insult to his memory. Whatever way you look at it The Trail of The Pink Panther remains a very shoddy and tacky film.It's the type of film that nowadays could be made on YouTube as it primarily is a bunch of clips from previous films strung together by the weakest of plots. Although it boasts new footage of Sellers from beyond the grave these "new clips" are really just deleted scenes and bloopers from the other films, many of which don't even fit the story or are just extended versions of what we have been seen before.All the familiar faces (Herbert Lom, Graham Stark) are present but they are really just there to be part of a filmed eulogy for Sellers. Blake Edwards may have felt that the series could go on without Sellers but this film, The Curse of The Pink Panther (Shamefully filmed at the same time as this tribute) and the dreadful Son of The Pink Panther proved him wrong. Edwards knew he had a cash cow and he was determined to milk it dry.RIP Peter Sellers - A Comedy Genius who will live on forever.

This message goes to all fans of The Pink Panther Series. Do not buy or even rent this horrible movie. I am a fan of pink panther films and when I finished the movie I was left crying and not they way the movie wants you to. I was sad that they ruined the series. I was sad because they killed Inspector. I mean, just because Peter Sellers died. I'm not saying that I'm not sad that he died it's just that I think that Peter Sellers would also not like this movie. The first part is very funny and original but by the time Inspetor Clouseau dies there is no comedy what so ever. Please fans do not watch this movie because it will ruin your idea of The Pink Panther for ever.
