Once again, Peter Sellers makes a mess of everything as Insp. Jacques Clouseau. This time, a gangster sets up a trap to assassinate him, but kills the wrong person. This sets in motion a few things: Charles Dreyfus (Herbert Lom) is elated at the news of Clouseau's death and leaves the mental institution, and the real Clouseau decides to find out who tried to kill him. Naturally, we have to wonder what's going to happen once the two men meet.
Burt Kwouk returns as Cato, and the female lead here is Dyan Cannon. As is the case with every movie in the series, the whole thing is really an excuse for Clouseau to be a doofus. Also, "Revenge of the Pink Panther" was the last Pink Panther movie released during Peter Sellers' lifetime. It remains to be seen how Steve Martin will stack up.
