Pink Panther 2 : A Must - Watch Movie!

Pink Panther 2 is definitely a movie worth - watching. This is the second movie after the Pink Panther Movie but the Pink Panther 2 has not lost the first movie's brilliance. I watched the first movie when I was on a flight back from New Zealand and you know what? I laughed all the way since for me it was just so funny. Steve Martin, the leading actor was so smart and incredible that he could transform himself from an English-man with a British accent into a French guy who could barely speak fluent English.
In the first movie, the main story was about the Pink Panther diamond which was presumably stolen by a Chinese mafia. But the story then proved that it was not stolen by a Chinese but it was given by its rightful owner to someone. No stolen ring actually!! Now, in the second movie the story was about a master thief who could steal anything he wanted. The Magna Carta from the British Museum, The Shroud of Turin from the Museum of Turin,  the Royal Japanese blade stolen from Kyoto, The Pink Panther Diamond stolen from the Petit Palais in Paris and also the Pope's Ring were all things that the Tornado, the thief's name, stole. That's why these nations form a group of super - detectives called the Dream Team and they had asked the clueless, yes that's right CLUELESS, Inspector Jacques Clouseau to be the leader of the team. Sweeping from Paris to Rome and back to Paris, the team actually couldn't find anything. In this journey from Paris to Rome and back to Paris, Inspector Jacques Clouseau behaved stupidly. He accidentally burnt a restaurant, which he had burnt a few years earlier. He also messed up a lot during the journey, destroying places and goods. HIS TRADEMARK. 
But once again, his wild and sometimes stupid instinct proved to be the key in solving this mystery. When all of the members of the Dream Team were absolutely sure that they had caught the master thief Tornado, he was the one who was pretty sure that the thief was still on the loose. He was laughed by the world for making such stupid conclusion but still, he was the one who laugh the last. 
He solved the case when the rest of the Dream Team were having a dinner party at the Petit Palais, celebrating their 'success'. Out of nowhere, Inspector Jacques Clouseau came out and said that the thief was actually a member of the Dream Team itself. He said that Ms. Solandres, a writer of many Tornado articles, was the thief. For one moment, it appeared to be a joke but  a moment later it was the fact. Ms. Solandres was actually the thief and you can guess the rest. Inspector Jacques Clouseau managed to arrest her and he showed the evidences that lead him to her. Also, he managed to deceive the master thief by replacing the Pink Panther diamond with its replica. Again, THE PINK PANTHER DIAMOND WAS NOT STOLEN! It's just great and my jaws dropped when I saw this scene. We were all made to think that the Pink Panther was now stolen but yet, it was not! 
For me, this movie still provided me with a lot of things to be laugh about. The actors, the mustache, the scenes and the stupidity in this film still make this film worth watching. Believe me, if you're a man with sorrows and you're looking to end your sorrows, watch this film and when you come out of the auditorium, I can be pretty sure that you have a smile on your face.
