Reasonable film in which Inspector Clouseau tries to solve a diamond heist. The film certainly doesn't have to have a plot. Certainly some funny moments, but some scenes go on too long (something that also applies to most running gags). Peter Sellers is returning to his most famous role for the third time after a 10-year hiatus.

This movie wasn't in the Pink Panther box set because United Artists wasn't involved in the movie at the time, it's certainly not that the movie was so bad that they left it out.

Clouseau has evolved a bit after the previous films, in the beginning the man was even more subtle who could solve a case without realizing it himself. Now he has become more of a destructive inspector leaving a trail of destruction behind him. His humor is somewhat double, I caught myself that it is quite laughable. And the timing is very good, not obvious with visual humor. But at the same time you feel the joke coming. It's wonderful how Catherine Schell as Lady Claudine Litton is laughing all the time at Clouseau's stupidity. It does work contagious.

The film can still count on a (albeit thin) story, a common thread that carries the film. Characters like Cato and Dreyfus are even more magnified as characters, which is more common in sequels. But you know what you're getting and in The Pink Panther movie series, this is one of the better movies.

When Inspector Clouseau moves his field to the luxurious ski resort of Gstaad, the increasingly desperate Dreyfus lets out: "Gstaad is beautiful. Soon a wasteland."

He was right because Clouseau is clumsy like never before.

Still a bit too much throwing and throwing in this "Return" where the better moments were where our friend explains his methods or in scenes like this one with the suitcase at the revolving door of the hotel.

I did laugh.
