8/10
Not great, but enjoyable

I believe that this effort was very good considering that the star of the series did not appear in it(due to his passing) Ted Wass almost grows into a Clousseau like character as the movie goes on, yes we miss the horribly funny accent and antics of Sellers, but we watch movies like this for the visual comedy and there is plenty of that, And of course what you tune into any "panther" movie to see it how does Dreyfuss get shot, blown up or nearly killed, and Sleigh does his best at accidentally taking Dreyfuss to the edge of Insanity just like Clousseau always did. The overall Plot is actually kind of clever, and keeps you wondering how it can possibly unfold knowing that Sellers character is not available...those who do not like this film, I believe are of the "you can't replace Sellers' "clousseau" ilk. that may be true, but give the master of adult comedy "Edwards " a chance , open your mind and be entertained
