Inspector Jacques Clouseau (Steve
Martin), a name that strikes fear into the
hearts of criminals everywhere--and anyone else
he comes across as well. Maybe it's because his
deductive powers are so inadequate, his grasp of
the obvious so elusive, his command of the language
so severely limited and his physical coordination
so completely lacking. But while his approach may
be unorthodox and often confounding, he always manages
to solve the crime--in his own fashion. At least
until now.
World famous soccer coach Yves Gluant has just led
Team France to victory over Team China. Surrounded
by grateful adoring fans and his beautiful lover,
the international pop star Xania (Beyoncé
Knowles), Gluant is felled by a poisoned
dart. In the ensuing panic, Gluant's priceless diamond
ring, "The Pink Panther,"
mysteriously disappears.
The murder becomes a media sensation and a national
obsession. Cracking the case falls to Chief Inspector
Dreyfus (Kevin Kline),
who is up for the prestigious Medal of Honor--for
the seventh time. Aware that he cannot afford to
make a single mistake--at least none that can be
attributed to him--Dreyfus presses the indefatigable
Inspector Clouseau into service. Closeau and his
new assistant, the steadfast, stoic Gendarme Gilbert
Ponton (Jean Reno),
follow a tangle of clues that leads them all over
Paris and, eventually, New York City.
In the Big Apple, Clouseau and Ponton and travel
to Times Square and the nearby diamond district,
as well as to the city's posh Fifth Avenue and the
renowned Waldorf Astoria Hotel. Along the way, Clouseau
and Ponton are waylaid by elusive diamond cutters,
would-be thugs, notorious bandits, smarmy casino
owners, secret agents, mysterious trainers and an
exotic beverage called "The
Flaming Mojito."
One by one, Clouseau narrows his search and tracks
down the most likely suspects. They include Xania,
a spurned soccer star, a millionaire casino owner
and a flirtatious P.R. publicist. Clouseau's process
is fascinating, if harrowingly circuitous. But he
never loses his focus, his purpose or his pride--much
to the consternation of Dreyfus, who may or may
not have Closeau's best interests at heart. In the
end, with the aid of Ponton and his devoted secretary
Nicole, Clouseau must unmask the murderer and keep
Dreyfus from taking credit. |
