In Curse, Clifton Sleigh (Ted Wass) is a New York retread of the bumbling Inspector, chosen to look for him by Clousseau's former boss because Sleigh most certainly will never find him. Although peppered with a few inventive stunts, Curse still falls short of the Sellers classics. In a bizarre side note, David Niven was himself terminally ill at the time of his appearance in Trail of the Pink Panther and unable to speak adequately. His voice was dubbed in by impressionist Rich Little. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Charles Cassady, Common Sense Media
One of the weaker entries in the series.
-
Christopher Null, Filmcritic.com
there's more to Clouseau than just making a mess of things
-
Stefan Birgir Stefansson, sbs.is
may God have mercy on Blake's soul
-
Steve Crum, Kansas City Kansan
The curse is the absence of Peter Sellers. Poor Niven is dubbed.
-
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
The magic is gone without Peter Sellers.
