Twelve years after the first film (and eleven after "A Shot In The Dark"), Inspector Clouseau is back (yeah!). Sellers easily proves his brilliance once again and Herbert Lom gives one great but very underrated comical performance. It is impossible to top the first film, but "TROTPP" is equally side-splitting and equally brilliant and eternal.

A must-see for Pink Panther fans. It takes the comedy to the next level and leaves tears in our eyes as the bumbling Clouseau intrepidly seeks to bring about justice with some slaptastic but ingeniously implemented detective work.

hard to compare this to the earlier films, because they had a very 60s feel to them, in the same way this has a very distinct 70s feel. Sellers changed Clouseau around a bit, making him have a more exaggerated accent and his bungling and ineptitude is more pronounced, but this is probably the more enduring version of the good inspector. as always, herbert lom as the chief inspector brings a good deal of comedy to the table too

Takes a while to get going, but once it hits the scene where he sneaks into the hotel room it hits such a fantastic comedic stride I couldn't help but love it.

They really don't make comedies like this any more. One of the most memorable Sellers Pink Panther movies, this one features the first true appearance of the classic, exaggerated-yet-understated inspector who's become so iconic. It's at its best when it's being subtle and understated - it really works because none of the characters (apart from Sellers and Lom) feel like they're even IN a comedy to begin with.

Hadn't seen this in a while. Forgot how much of a Sellers vehicle it really is; at this point, the PP films were little but a way to get from one funny Clouseau moment to the next. And they are funny, even though the plot is threadbare at best and Plummer isn't nearly as good a gentleman villain as Niven was.

More than a decade after Peter Sellers had last starred as Inspector Clouseau, he returned to the role in The Return of the Pink Panther (1975), and the movie is overall a lot different than the previous two Sellers had starred in. First of all, it visually looks nothing like the other two. Of course, this is to be expected. The Pink Panther and A Shot in the Dark both had the feel of 60s movies, and this one has a distinct 70s style.

Good

Actually, my favorite of the series. Not as smart, but has plenty of laugh out loud moments.

All the Pink Panther movies are hilarious.

Peter Sellers makes a pretty bad movie fairly good! Go him.

The legendary Peter Sellers at his very best.

Peter Sellers could carry just about anything.
