French, Fun

True to the first installment, The Pink Panther 2 begins with much promise by way of Inspector Clouseau's own brand of semi slapstick humor, loses its way somewhere around the middle, and then finds it again to round off a fairly... Full review

As I said in my review of the first installment of this line: Steve Martin has walked in the Valley of the Kings. He has faced some pretty amazing obstacles, and he has stood in some pretty big shadows. Let's face... Full review
Awesome celebration of Peter Sellers the King!

I am the most gigantic fan of everything Peter Sellers ever did on camera, and I have seen the original Pink Panther films dozens of times over and over. And I think Steve Martin's modern takes on this concept are fantastic,... Full review

My opinion is that it was better than the 1st one. It was quick,the plot very interesting,I was easily absorbed(I did not realized how the time passed).As I was watching it in Greece some jokes were not very funny for those... Full review

I'm not ready to get out the torches and pitchforks and lead a lynch mob after Mr Martin -- not yet anyway! Having read the early reviews here, I went to the cheapo theater with low expectations, and emerged pleasantly surprised.... Full review

Amusing and at times outright funny.

Not as good as the first Steve Martin remake, but still amusing and at times outright funny. Most of the humor consists of sight gags and slapstick, but there are some quite funny scenes such as when Inspector Clouseau interrogates the... Full review

This movie just doesn't have quality.Poor effort as to what is really funny.There have been far too many funny movies to have this movie work.If your going to make a panther film try to understand what made the panther films funny... Full review

I also didn't find myself hating it either.....That being said, this Steve Martin movie still turned out to be a clever and funny film.....When The Pink Panther 2 first came out, I read quite a few critic reviews saying the movie wasn't as good as the original..... ... Full Review

t a better film.....the true insult of this sequel is his inclusion in this horrendous sequel.....This film is just not good.....I hear rumors of a third film and I hope the poor box office performance of this first sequel keeps that from ever happening.....In the end, if you want to enjoy a film featuring the characters created by Blake Edwards you should ignore these modern updates.... ...

I didn't cringe once during Pink Panther 2 .....Pink Panther 2 is devoid of substance as a film, succeeding neither as a mystery nor a slapstick farce.....Although the most basic elements of the previous film are referenced they are not required viewing to understand or rather suffer through the sequel.....if it's nothing special, picture and sound being completely serviceable but not outstanding.....he neglects the rest of the film, which ultimately falls victim to a meager plot and an acute lack of jokes. ...

PopMatters
One of The Pink Panther 2's sole highlights is the talented cast....persuade younger viewers to give the classic films a first look.....The bonus features in this single-disc package are few and even less amusing than the mostly unfunny film.....Perhaps it could remind older viewers of Sellers' best moments....The gag reel is rather bland for something designed to showcase how much fun the cast was having during the production..... ...

If you enjoyed the original "Pink Panther," there's no reason you wouldn't like what Martin has cooked up for the sequel.....I must admit that on the grand scale of home entertainment torment, "Panther 2" is actually a slightly superior film than its forefather.....Of course, if you embraced the 2006 film in a distinctly yawn-inducing way, you've already seen the follow-up.....Granted, it shouldn't be a complete shock to find the actor (who takes a co-scripting credit) forgoing a chance to challenge himself ...
