The comedy scenes (when I say 'comedy' I use the term very loosely) in The Pink Panther remind me of a crappy program called 'Didi's Comedy' that used to air on DD2. Typical scenes would include someone carrying a ladder horizontally and knocking people down when they turn carelessly, opening car doors in traffic and sending cyclists flying, and so on. It wasn't that funny then, and it's not funny now.
Pink Panther only has slapstick comedy to offer, never mind the poor attempts at making fun of the French language. BTW, the only joke I enjoyed in the whole fricken movie was the Is it hard? What is? exchange in the New York hotel bed between Steve Martin and Jean Reno. Not even sure whether this was meant to be a joke. Go figure.
