Review of A Shot in the Dark (1964) by Jim H — 12 Oct 2012
Jacques Clouseau investigates a murder in an upper class Parisian residence, protecting the prime suspect for whom he has a crush.
Broad comedy at its best, A Shot in the Dark features Peter Sellers reprising his most famous role. Sellers is great as Clouseau, and many of the physical gags are well choreographed and fun. If nothing else this film proves that the nudity-hiding bits in Austin Powers were thoroughly unoriginal.
The film doesn't say anything, but it doesn't try to.
Overall, this film is fun to watch, and that's about it.
