Pink Panther
Added 1/27/2010
No reason to listen to me... if you love Peter Sellers it is a must to own. Pink Panther series is a classic and probably will never be matched. Too funny.

pink panther review
Added 12/17/2009
I guess my tastes have changed. Used to love all the Pink Panther movies. Now, Peter Sellers just doesn't seem as funny to me. But they are still an enjoyable set of movies to watch.

Peter Sellers IS Pink Panther +++
Added 10/12/2009
This series of movies is almost sure to give anyone a belly-crunch workout via waves of gut-chuckles. The humor is of several types -- instant and ongoing -- noisy and quiet -- fast and slow. And, it uses sight, sound and touch to express all the fun. The spy crime mystery adventure action itself -- and the plot-twists -- and the settings -- is all fine, vivid and colorful. Then, there's the nostalgia factor -- Pink Panther is an easy way to visit the now-ancient non-pager, non-cellphone, non-computerized world. I even very much like the Pink Panther cartoons. The jazzy swing theme-music is unforgetable. But, it is Peter Sellers [and the other great actors] that really make this series so special. BTW "Return of the Pink Panther" is NOT in this particular set -- Get the Peter Sellers Pink Panther movies however you can +++

a poor box set!
Added 9/15/2009
I am a huge Pink Panther fan, and this box set isn't a great box set.
First off, it is missing "Return of the Pink Panther", which is one of the better Pink Panther movies. Instead it includes "Trail of the Pink Panther" which is basically the outtakes that didn't make it onto "Revenge of the Pink Panther". Sellers had died before it's making, and so you are stuck with a sloppy thrown together movie. The first movie (the Pink Panther) and Revenge of the Pink Panther are fair, and Trail of the Pink Panther is brutal.
I would recommend buying Pink Panther Strikes again (Without question the best of the series), A Shot in the Dark, and Return of the Pink Panther. These 3 movies are the true stand outs, and you won't be wasting your time watching a ton of fluff.
Just my two cents!

I have seen most of the other ones. I really liked this one. If you are in to the Pink Panther movies, this is a must have.

Blu ray is superb!!
Added 11/25/2009
First off, this is not a comparison of the The Pink Panther with Peter Sellers versus the remake with Steve Martin. There is no comparison. One is classic comedy at its best -- the other a cheesy remake.
This blu-ray edition is superb. I judge my blu-ray discs with "Mamma Mia" as the standard of excellence. The color and clarity of the PP are first-class. Considering that the movie was shot in 1964 they have
done a marvelous job.

The Pink Panther - Peter Sellers - always a classic
Added 9/12/2009
The Pink Panther with its excellent cast remains an original classic and a great film to watch over time because of its nostalgia of the mid-1960s and the chemistry between this blend of interesting characters. The zany humor of Peter Sellers, introduction of two beautiful women, Capucine and Claudia Cardinale, and a brief scene-stealing performance by the lovely Fran Jeffries dancing and singing are gems that make Blake Edwards' original version of this film impossible to replicate with as much success and popularity as this film has maintained over the last several decades. David Niven's performance is also very entertaining as is Robert Wagner, and an unforgettable musical score by Henry Mancini make this a timeless classic.
