The Pink Panther is a comedy crime film released in 2006. It is directed by Shawn Levy and stars Steve Martin, Jean Reno, and Emily Mortimer. The film is a reboot of the iconic Pink Panther series and offers a new take on the character of Inspector Jacques Clouseau, made famous by Peter Sellers in the original films.
The plot of the film revolves around the murder of the coach of the French soccer team, who is killed by a poisoned dart during a game. The police suspect that the killer is after the valuable ring worn by the coach, which features a rare diamond known as the Pink Panther. The case is assigned to Inspector Clouseau, who is known for his incompetence and his tendency to bungle investigations.
Despite his reputation, Clouseau is determined to solve the case and prove his worth as a detective. His investigation takes him from the soccer stadium to the highest levels of French society, as he encounters a cast of eccentric characters who may be connected to the murder. Along the way, Clouseau uses his unconventional methods and his unique personality to solve the crime and catch the killer.
The Pink Panther also features a subplot involving Clouseau's awkward romantic relationship with Nicole, his secretary, played by Mortimer. The film combines elements of slapstick comedy, farce, and mystery thriller, and features a soundtrack by composer Christophe Beck. The film was a commercial success, grossing over $160 million at the box office, but received mixed reviews from critics. Despite this, it spawned a sequel, Son of the Pink Panther, released in 2006.
