Movie Reviews of The Pink Panther (Special Edition)
Movie Review: Pass on this one.
Summary: 2 Stars
It's the three stooges-minus two people-minus the comedy. No surprises. Vary predictable. I like Steve Martin and he did alright here, but the script was ho-hum at best. It's too difficult to be better than Peter Sellers and this movie did not pull that off. I would rent or watch it before you purchase.
Summary of The Pink Panther (Special Edition)
French Inspector Jacques Clouseau is called in to solve the mysterious death of a soccer coach and find the missing Pink Panther diamond.Genre: Feature Film-Comedy
Rating: PG
Release Date: 4-SEP-2007
Media Type: DVD
If anyone could step into the huge shoes of comedic genius left by Peter Sellers as bumbling French policeman Jacques Clouseau, it's Steve Martin. Sellers made Clouseau a true icon of character and comedy in five Pink Panther movies in the '60s and '70s; Martin has arguably already attained Sellers' rank as an entertainment talent, so it only makes sense that he became Clouseau's heir apparent for the inevitable screen resurrection. This updated story of the priceless eponymous diamond purloined under mysterious circumstance and pursued with Keystone Cop-like antics by Clouseau is a frivolous yet winning pastiche of physical gags and riffs on Clouseau's hilariously impenetrable accent. A famous French football coach (Jason Statham in cameo mode) is wearing the stone, set as an engagement ring for his pop star fiance (Beyonce Knowles). But before a packed stadium crowd of thousands, the ring disappears from his finger as he falls dead from a poisoned dart. The wisp of a plot is secondary to the pratfalls of Martin's prim, prissy, and utterly inept Clouseau. He's brought onto the case by France's top cop (a drolly sophisticated Kevin Kline) who wants Clouseau to fail in a scheme to make himself a national hero. Even in a world where jokes about Viagra, flatulence and other familiar sophomoric subjects are required, Martin makes his Clouseau singularly memorable. You'll be fully expecting Clouseau to shatter priceless antiques, mangle his pronunciations (hamburger, anyone?), and prevail in the end, but Martin carries it off, giving homage to Sellers at the same time that he remakes the character in his own image as a comic master. --Ted Fry
