Hey everyone, it’s me Nicholas, and welcome back to another movie review today i’ll be talking about the pink panther strikes again.

the plot: after being released from a mental hospital Charles Dreyfus played again by Herbert Lom intends to off inspector clouseau a former underling whose blundering drove the lawman around the bend. Dreyfus captures a scientist ordering him to create a weapon that’ll destroy the planet and threatens world leaders with annihilation unless they hand over his old nemesis. meanwhile Clouseau heads to england to look for the vanished scientist and, his obliviousness turn out to be an asset.

My Thoughts: this is perhaps the Zaniest pink panther movie i’ve ever seen heck, one of the funniest comedies ever made pure simple. there’s a lot of good jokes, and clever ideas for example, there’s a scene where clouseau tries on a hunchback disguise and he goes flying out of his apartment, spins around then lands in the water. another where he tries to break into Dreyfus’ lair, and my absolute favorite scene in all of comedy, the laughing gas scene which is the most hysterical moment in the entire film it’s so amazing, i couldn’t stop laughing at every joke in the film it brings me a lot of joy.

Final Thoughts: The Pink Panther Strikes Again is a humorus, funny, and entertaining film to watch.

Overall 8/10
