There is something of an imbalance still in the film – Sellers’ Clouseau is an island of clumsy incompetence among a cast of distinguished actors trying to play a sophisticated crime thriller. It’s like setting Charlie Chaplin loose in a Bond film. Frankly, the film is rather dull and tedious but for the presence of Sellers, whose every movement is pure comic genius and in many ways the semi-serious tone of the film works in his favour UR - http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt0108895/ ER -
