'The Pink Panther 2' ***

'The Pink Panther 2' starring Steve Martin as Inspector Clouseau, and backed by some greatness like John Cleese!!! (Not to mention Jeremy Irons, Andy Garcia, Jean Reno, Alfred Molina, and Lily Tomlin!!! What a cast!) Steve Martin is an amazing Jacques Cousteau. What a comedic genius! (Did you guys know that 'The Jerk' is my all-time favorite movie? It doesn't matter how bad things are. If you just put that in, you are going to laugh.)

This movie is another tribute to the long lost art of physical comedy. We don't see it much anymore. People don't appreciate 'The Three Stooges'. But alas, we get a bone every now and then.

This Pink Panther sequel delivers plenty of the stupid, bumbling Jacques Clouseau. It takes me back to my childhood with Peter Sellers. I didn't 'get' all of the humor, but there was always something going on to laugh at. Some idiocy that he found. But then as always, in the end, Clouseau always ends up being the smart one?? You'll be giggling the entire time. The plot? Yes, there is one and it's put together quite well.

Now it's true that watching 'The Pink Panther 2' will probably not change your life. But if life's about the journey, I'd prefer to get there giggling.

Totally OK for the kiddies. They probably won't get it... all of the humor that is, but you should at least try to explain it to them so this artform doesn't die! And they'll have to be laughing right along with you as Inspector Clouseau falls into all sorts of mischief.

Here's how to get it:
