Renata Adler New York Times A comedy so uninspired, so relentlessly awful that one occasionally laughs for it-more like a moo or a snort or a gagging noise-just to interrupt it a little or help it out of the room. May 9, 2005 Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Unhappily, Arkin has been given a script not quite up to the two Sellers-Clouseau films. Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 23, 2004 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Alan Arkin is OK as long as you pretend he's not playing Clouseau (actually easy to do). Rated: 2/4 Nov 7, 2021 Full Review Christopher Null Filmcritic.com Rated: 2/5 Oct 15, 2006 Full Review Ken Hanke Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) Gee, what a bad idea. Rated: 1/5 Aug 14, 2003 Full Review Read all reviews

Alec B Truly embarrassing on all fronts, especially for Arkin who gives a performance that is entirely cringe worthy. Probably for the best that this unfunny fiasco remains forgotten. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/10/24 Full Review Audience Member Truly embarrassing on all fronts, especially for Arkin who gives a performance that is entirely cringe worthy. Probably for the best that this unfunny fiasco remains forgotten. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Liam D Well it sucked this Comedy should be forgotten even Shout Factory (when MGM got the rights back to return of the pink panther for the Blu-ray set) was the only film that wasn't included and It will be disappointing entry and forgotten in the sands of cinema. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/25/20 Full Review Audience Member Mon Dieu! Quelle meh! This film has its moments and Mr. Arkin tries his best. Most interesting bit: 46:52... look at the grave marker, then look up why. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member The most overlooked entry in the franchise. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member The inspector must battle thieves in this tired comedy. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
