The Pink Panther Strikes Again


Actors: Peter Sellers, Herbert Lom, Leonard Rossiter, Lesley-Anne Down, Colin Blakely, Omar Sharif, Burt Kwouk, Graham Stark
Rating: 6 out of 10, This is where the Pink Panther movies officially jumped the shark as long suffering Herbert Lom as Chief Inspector Dreyfus becomes a 007 level villain complete with UN dissolving death ray. Clouseau is pursued by an army of assassins as he tries to track down Dreyfus. They all fail through no skill by Clouseau which only adds to his legend and Dreyfus’ madness. There were some funny moments but this is where the series seemed to lose a lot of its fun.
MVP: Ms. Down, as the British assassin, forgot how gorgeous she was
