neutral · AI labelView post →To add on to my viewing of the “Inspector Clouseau” saga is “The Return of the Pink Panther”. It’s a good film with some funny gags, good music, and I also like the character trait of Clouseau being a master of disguise. 8/10

neutral · AI labelView post →Was visiting a friend, and The Return of the Pink Panther was playing on tv. I still don't find any of the Pink Panther films funny. I could hardly believe it's a movie from 1975 either, as it feels like a movie from a decade prior. Blake Edwards really started phoning things in back then.

The Pink Panther (1963), A Shot in the Dark (1964), The Return of the Pink Panther (1975), The Pink Panther Strikes Again (1976), and Revenge of the Pink Panther (1978). I even watched Son of the Pink Panther (1993) because I’m a big Roberto Benigni fan. 😁

neutral · AI labelView post →The Return of the Pink Panther is set 4 years after the first film even though Peter Sellers is clearly over a decade older and the Phantom is over a decade younger (because now he's Christopher Plummer)
neutral · AI labelView post →The Return of the Pink Panther, 1975. I'm guessing, but I'm pretty sure this is the first film I saw in the theater. Disappointing. I tried to watch Pink Panther films again as an adult. It did not go well.
negative · AI labelView post →I think The Pink Panther Strikes Again is really good; shame that bargain bin didn't have The Return of the Pink Panther, maybe the best-looking film in the series, thanks to d.p. Geoffrey Unsworth and a very hot Christopher Plummer (who if I'm not mistaken does a very impressive stunt himself)

I've been to several parties that in my estimation went off the rails, but none that culminated in an elephant being washed in a swimming pool.
neutral · AI labelView post →After being quite successfully stitched up for the theft of the priceless "Pink Panther" diamond four years earlier, it falls to "Insp. Clouseau" (Peter Sellers) to find out just who has stolen it again now! He reckons it must be his nemesis "Sir Charles Litton" (this time Christopher Plummer) because his trademark glove has been left behind, but we know that that former jewel thief is also just as perplexed by the thieving since he didn't leave his poolside. Curious, he decides that he, too,…

These films have a stranger naming practise than the Fast & Furious franchise: 4th in series, 1st to feature both Pink Panther in the title & Sellers as Clouseau. A delight.
