Der rosarote Panther 2

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 watchable movie. As far as humor is concerned, one gets the feeling that there is an overlap of far too many elements – the stereotypes, the action sequences, the warped logic, the karate kid family create sequences that are delightful but in certain instances a trifle too much. Good to see Aishwariya in a substantial role, not the least towards the end. The ending is definitely not guessable, though I am not sure whether it is entirely logical. Well, all is fair in Clouseau's end-justifies-the-means-and-hilarity world

We enjoyed this film from start to finish. The audience was roaring with laughter at all the right times. Money & Time well spent one can't ask for more. Thanks for the entertainment to all those who had hands and ideas in the film.Keep making films. Helpful info: Get there early to get your popcorn/treats and beverages you don't want to miss any bit of it. I find if you sit up higher in the audience one's eyes relax and are able to take in the whole film without feeling you are pressed against a window shield in a smart car. 10/10 STARS. I do hope parents will convey that stunt people were used and if those things ever happened there could be deadly consequences.

OK after reading through a few pages of these so-called "reviews" I gotta say this, Peter Sellers is dead, get over it.

He has been dead for longer than a billion people has been alive, and most wont remember him or even know about his Pink Panther movies, so stop comparing them.

If you can't watch the movie without bias to a guy who has been dead for nearly 30 years, then PLEASE don't bother posting a review, 10 pages of "Steve Martin is not Peter Sellers" don't review a movie.

OK rant over, for the review.

The movie is actually both quite good and quite fun for someone who has never seen more to The Pink Panther than the cartoon, now I'm not gonna lie, it's not a super-box-office-hit or anything, it wont make the Top10 or even Top50 list, but it's definitely not a 1 or a 2 or any of these things the Peter Sellers fan boys are giving it.

If you go in expecting some fun comedy and without previous expectations concerning past movies you will not be disappointed, and if you are a Steve martin fan then it will get a bit better than that.

Even though I knew the movie had been panned by the critics, I still agreed to go along with my friends to watch it. As the credits rolled in the end, I sat wondering what were the critics expecting from the movie...

Of course the plot is stupid, the end is predictable. But the movie delivers what every comedy intends to deliver...lots of good laughs ! If the reviewers were expecting a thought provoking plot, Oscar winning performances, or a great achievement in "moving image"...perhaps they bought the wrong movie ticket. Also, I have not seen the original Peter Sellers movie. Looks like every Peter Sellers fan hates the new series. But I really don't see why shouldn't I enjoy the jokes in Pink Panther 2 just because Peter Sellers was funnier.

This may not be the funniest movie of the year. But its 1.5 hours well enjoyed ! Don't get swayed by the critics...go and have fun in this movie !

The only person connected to this movie that showed any sense has to be Kevin Klein, who did not reprise his role as Dreyfus this second time around. Watching this movie, you have to wonder about the sense of everyone involved, from the actors to the director. The script is absolutely terrible - there's barely a plot here, and it moves at an agonizingly slow pace that will show even feeble-minded audience members that there's not much here. But I think Martin has to accept much of the blame - he co-wrote the script, and his various pratfalls show absolutely no comic timing or comic surprises - you'll see just about every gag before it actually happens. The whole movie actually makes the original remake look good, and that was a terrible movie!
