Sequel to the 2006 The Pink Panther, Steve Martin returns as the clumsy bumbling Inspector Clouseau as the Pink Panther has once again been stolen. The stakes are higher as The Tornado, a thief who has stolen high profile artifacts from other countries in addition to the Pink Panther. Clouseau leads a team of detectives to find out the identity of this famous thief. Like the first film, the mystery and plot takes a backseat in favor of the humor involving Clouseau. These usually involve some sort of accident by an unknowing Clouseau. Unfortunately, this starts out outstay its welcome as your patience is tested from the stubborn near-stupid actions of Clouseau. Furthermore, there are a few sections where it strays towards the objectification and racist humor, but luckily it does not cross that line. The predictable resolution of the case by Clouseau was expected, as well as the identity of The Tornado, so The Pink Panther 2, while still enjoyable, is a somewhat cliched and tired film.
