That was an excellent one.

brilliant actors, brilliant editing

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

You've probably read my "Pink Panther" reboot review, but I love the Pink Panther movies and cartoons. I grew up with them. And when I heard about "Trail of the Pink Panther" getting terrible reviews, I was like, "OK, I'm surprised, but I haven't seen the movie yet." I actually thought that to myself one day before I watched it.During the title sequence (although it was funny), I just quietly read this title: "To Peter. The One and Only Inspector Clouseau". When I saw it, I was like, "Wait a second, Peter Sellers have died?! What's going on in it?!" Then I then noticed something, a montage of Sellers as Clouseau. People were like, "Are you serious?!", but for me, I basically just let my laughs all out. I don't care what everyone says, but I enjoyed "Trail of the Pink Panther" a lot. It was basically a tribute to Sellers, which Blake Edwards did a good job with.So, overall, this is basically the king of guilty pleasures. Watch the movie. It's hysterical and is definitely a great tribute to Sellers. So I am giving it a 10 out of 10.

"Trail Of The Pink Panther" may be the only movie in history in which the first-billed actor appears only in archival footage, and even then only for about one third of the running time, and the second-billed actor appears for about 3 minutes! All the Peter Sellers material is made of deleted scenes and replayed clips from previous films in the series; the problem with those deleted scenes is that there were deleted for a reason (Blake Edwards showed good judgement when he cut them out, not when he put them back in), and the problem with the film clips is that....we've seen them all before, obviously. The new scenes with Joanna Lovely....ooops, I mean Lumley interviewing series regulars one-by-one are pointless; Richard Mulligan's scenes near the end (he plays Clouseau's father) are mostly embarrassing. On the whole, apart from being morally dubious as an experiment, "Trail" is not very funny either....until the end credits, where we get a compilation of some of the series' most memorable moments. *1/2 out of 4.

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.

at least half of this movie isn't really a movie in itself.it's more of a tribute to Peter Sellers,and uses scenes from previous PInk Panther movies cobbled together as as a very thin plot.as a result,there are a lot of continuity issues and things are disjointed.but somewhere along the way,there is an actual story which incorporates new footage,and in thew end,the movie ends up being not half bad.not great,but not bad.having Joanna Lumley in the cast elevates things a bit.i didn't find much too laugh at here,but at least it had some entertainment value.as long as you know what you're in for,and don't mind waiting for about 45 minutes or so before the real movie begins,then you might enjoy this.for me,The Trail of the Pink Panther is a 5/10
