In Revenge of the Pink Panther, for the final time, the bumbling but impeturbable Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) maddens his long-suffering boss Dreyfus (Herbert Lom), sharpens his wits and martial skills with his manservant Cato (Burt Kwouk) and foils the bad guys without ever having a clue… More In Revenge of the Pink Panther, for the final time, the bumbling but impeturbable Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) maddens his long-suffering boss Dreyfus (Herbert Lom), sharpens his wits and martial skills with his manservant Cato (Burt Kwouk) and foils the bad guys without ever having a clue about what he is doing. In the story, Clouseau allows a gang of drug racketeers to believe that he has been assassinated and dons a series of disguises as he travels all over the world in order to apprehend the culprits. He is assisted by Simone Legree (Dyan Cannon), the former girlfriend of the drug-lord Douvier (Robert Webber). Though it received a very mixed reception from critics, this, the sixth of the Pink Panther series, did very well at the box-office. Sadly, it was actor Peter Sellers' final Pink Panther performance before his death in 1980 (the later film, The Trail of Pink Panther was composed of outtakes from previous Pink Panther films). ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Critic Reviews

Charles Cassady, Common Sense Media
Okay, but not the best in the series.

Stefan Birgir Stefansson, sbs.is
wasn't he insane?

Widgett Walls, Needcoffee.com
The later films in the series...are...just excuses to let Edwards and Sellers get together and create completely out of control situations for physical comedy.
-
Bill Chambers, Film Freak Central
Sellers' off-screen brutishness really registers this time
-
John J. Puccio, Movie Metropolis
...both Sellers and the series looked tired. But even second-rate Sellers is better than no Sellers at all.
