Advantages: It's realtively short Disadvantages: It hammers the nails into the coffin of a dead franchise and Steve Martin's comedy career
...When the world famous Pink Panther diamond is stolen during a football match and its' owner murdered, Chief Inspector Dreyfus hatches a plan. He wants to make himself famous and winner of the Legion of Honour. But to buy some time he engages the famously incompetent Inspector Clouseau to investigate the crime, while he cracks the case. With chaos following him from one disaster to the next, Clouseau's suspicions fall on beautiful pop star Xania. But can a man who can't even tie his shoelaces without incident really find the killer and the diamond?
You're treading on thin ice when you decide to remake or "re-imagine" a film. When you're dealing with such an iconic and beloved character as Inspector Jacques Clouseau, you're creating an even bigger challenge. Get it wrong and you risk alienating a huge group of people. But sadly...

Advantages: Good slapstick comedy - a bomb (imagine saying in French/French English) Disadvantages: Should have had titles of films on DVD's
...Starring Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau. This is a nicely presented box set featuring The Pink Panther, A Shot In The Dark, The Pink Panther Strikes Again, Trail of the Pink Panther and 3 hours of special features. Casting Sellers, as Inspector Clouseau was stroke of genius from the casting director. He is almost Frank Spencer like in solving crimes and catching criminals - it is slapstick comedy at its best. He drives his boss to madness, where ever he goes there is sure to be mayhem - even when he goes home, his faithful servant Tato must test his martial arts skills to the limit. There are six DVD's in total, the thing I don't like is there are D numbers on each DVD i.e D1 + D2 + D3 as opposed to the title of the film which is confusing until you have watched each DVD. A worthwhile purchase for any Pink Panther fan....
