Review of The Pink Panther 2 (2009) by Kaustav — 03 Feb 2018

PP2 is a bit on dryer and less humorous side of its prequel. The incumbence of bigger supporting cast who are seemingly quirky are just nothing as comfortable and enjoyable as Martin slipping into the skins of French accenting-Oddly Spying-Incapaby-buffoonish-at-being-best-at-his-job character de Closeau. Special mention to John Cleese for filling in as the new Chief Inspector Dreyfuss - for even though the accent and obscure idiocy that the previous actor brought is gone, this is The Cleese we are talking about. This man was the heart of great comical masterclasses such as Monty Python and Fawlty Towers for a good reasons and he shows that when he butts his reddened face into the washroom wall ;p.

All on all, leave behind logic, mostly, and lower your expectations of the last time when you start through it and keep guffawing in mirth till it ends.
