 One of the best film boxsets. August 26, 2008

My Dad had shown me a few of the Pink Panther films when I was little, and when I got The Pink Panther (2006) on DVD, it was only natural that I'd go on and buy this, and I wasn't disapointed.
What you get is 5 Pink Panther films featuring Sellers;
The Pink Panther, stars David Niven as The Phantom, who sets out to steal the Pink Panthern Diamond. It is up to the bumbling Inspector Clouseau to stop him. This film is weaker than some of the others in the series and has a distinct 60's feel to it.
A Shot in the Dark, finds Sellers in the lead role trying to solve a murder. The action and comedy is much stronger than the first film and this is reguarded as one of the better one. It also marked the first appearance of Kato and Inspector Dreyfuss.
The next film is The Pink Panther Strikes again, which technically is the 5th film in the series. In it you find a crazy Dreyfuss trying to take over the world with a laser beam. The plot is very sureal and far fetched, but there is plently of laughs provided along the way.
Revenge of the Pink Panther was Sellers last film and is probably his weakest entry. The script isn't that good. The film starts of strongly where the mafia beleive they have killed Clouseau, but Clouseau goes under cover to find out who wanted to kill him. It's ok, but not as funny as the others.
Trail of the Pink Panther was made as a tribute to Peter Sellers. The start of the film uses old deleted scenes of Sellers. Suprisingly they are used to good affect, to show Clouseau going on a mission and then dissapearing. It is up to a french reporter to track him down. The script is very dire. The only thing that keeps this going is the guest appearances of past characters such as the Phantom.
All in all a good selection of films. It would have got 5 stars if it included the other Pink Panther films, especially since it is called the Pink Panther Film Collection.
The films that are missing are Inspector Clouseau, which stars Alan Arkin, The Return of the Pink Panther, Sellers return to the role, Curse of the Pink Panther, a direct follow on from Trail of the Pink PAnther featuring a new detectivez and the Son of the Pink Panther.
The films without Sellers aren't as good as the others, but are still part of the series and should be included. They can be bought on DVD seperatly though.
Worth a buy!
A Blast from the past June 28, 2008
Sean P. Scully (Northern Ireland)
Having been a big Sellers fan from childhood I decided to invest in the pink panther collection as the price for the box set was now much lower than when first released. I agree it is a pity that all the films are not in one box but that's not really a big deal to me. Picture quality is good but obviously not at today's standards hence the 4 stars. A big laugh for little money.
 For The Complete Collection in one package May 24, 2008

It's a shame they haven't included Return of the Pink Panther in this set, so what I have done is to buy the tin version ( not much more money if you look round) then buy return of the Pink panther seperate.
This poses a problem because I found it would not fit in the tin with the card box set as well, so I used a 7mm thin dvd case,scanned the cover and used somesoftware called undercover xp to get the cover just right with the reduced spine. This will then go nicely into the tin and you then have all the (best ones) pink panther movies together in one Package. Sorted!
I am not bothered about the other inferior movies that came out later, so this is my method of doing it. Hope it helps - follow this and hunt out the Tin edition while you can still get it

I got this as a Christmas Present and am using it to introduce my children to the delights of Peter Sellers - and they are finding it a delight! Return is not here because the rights in the UK are owned by Universal and not MGM. 4 out of 5 stars as a result (and the over-pretentious DVD artwork).
The Pink Panther Film Collection September 1, 2007

Again, as previous reviewers have said its a good collection but why miss out 'Return of' which is arguably one of the best in the series.
I have been a lifelong fan of the series & received this as a christmas present. I was absolutely delighted to finally have, what i thought was, the complete collection. Gutted that i had to spend more money to complete the series.
