Steve Martin as Insp. Jacques Clouseau. This remake is okay for what it is. There are a few laughs in it. It’s always a pleasure to see Lily Tomlin in anything. She always brings some class and quality to any comedy. I would not say this is a good example of Steve Martin’s best work. He’s a good actor and a great comedien, but this is not a great movie. It’s full of slap stick and one liners, and most everything is entirely predictable. This movie feels like it’s trying to have the same flavor that the comedies of the original Pink Panther had, but it simply doesn’t happen unfortunately.
It’s light hearted and mindless, and good for a smile and chuckle.
