Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Funny, but PG
I truly enjoyed Alan Arkin in this film, and found some of the scenes absolutely hilarious!
Deserving of a "G" rating it is not, however. "PG" would better inform prospective viewers.
Rating:  - Inspector C-lose-owwww!!
Despite the presence of screen great Alan Arkin in the title role, INSPECTOR CLOUSEAU mostly falls on its face. I think the problem with this movie is that the character of Clouseau was still in its infancy - leaving Arkin (and the writers) little to go on. There is no Chief Inspector Dreyfus. No Phantom. No Cato. No Pink Panther.
It wasn't until THE RETURN OF THE PINK PANTHER that Inspector Clouseau became a huge success. And that was because he became more of an overblown - but lovable ... Read More
Rating:  - Arkin, Not Sellers, Created "Real" Clouseau
All that is factual about this film has been stated well in the other reviews--but one thing has been missed even by critics. Alan Arkin, not Peter Sellers, "created" the Inspector Clouseau that we know and love.
Arkin gave Clouseau much more comic depth, yet managed to convince us that he really was an inept French detective. Without the silly gags which were so abused by both Sellers and Blake Edwards, Arkin delivers a picture-perfect performance.

Rating:  - Did Arkin even watch the other versions?
I had not heard of this film until I found it in a bargin bin at one of my local DVD shops. For a few dollars I thought it might be worth a go,......wrong! This had to be one of the worst spinoffs that I have ever come across. It makes me wonder if the script writers and Arkin had even bothered to watch any of the other versions. Arkin comes across as an arrogant tot, not like the much beloved fumbling fool as we have come to know in other films. The language he uses it nothing like what we have ... Read More
Rating: - Brave attempt
I'm a great fan of the Pink Panther series and a great fan of Alan Arkin. Some reviewers make much of the fact that Arkin doesn't attempt to recreate Sellers character bringing his own take to the film. I, however, believe in not following the formula more closely than he did as created by Sellers in the first two movies, some of Clousseau is also lost. The opening segment of the Inspector disembarking the plane is about as close as the character gets to the one we know so well. Sure, there are flashes ... Read More
