Review

After the huge success of the first Pink Panther, and my absolute adoration for it, I had high hopes for the sequel. They had the right ingredients, a great cast, and a huge history to create a good story from but too my great dismay this sequel isn’t even slightly entertaining.

Filled with slap stick comedy and an extremely boring plot line the movie fails to take off before crashing miserably with a horrifically predictable ending. There’s no presence in the film because the actors are totally underutilised and diminished to stupid conversations about nothing. Gone is the originality and unpredictability of the first film. We know what’s coming and this time, it’s not funny.

The Pink Panther 2 can’t hold it’s own for a diverse audience anymore. It’s taken a step down and began catering for young kids with repeated pie in your face jokes that anyone over eight is officially sick of. I would like to speak to whoever came up with the script; they must have some serious form of writers block.
