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.

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.

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.

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.

Chicago Sun-Times

Unhappily, Arkin has been given a script not quite up to the two Sellers-Clouseau films.

Rated: 2.5/4

Alan Arkin is OK as long as you pretend he's not playing Clouseau (actually easy to do).
