Media Review: The Pink Panther

After church this afternoon a few of my friends and I went to see the Pink Panther.

We had been anticipating this movie for several months. I can't speak for the rest of the guys but I'm a big fan of Steve Martin. His humor might not stimulate my wit but he can make me laugh until my eyes get teary.

I think this movie is one of his best so far, ranking right up there with Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and Sargeant Bilco.

Martin plays a bumbling police detective who is appointed to solve a high profile murder. His machiavellian boss wants Martin's charachter to muck up the case so that when he takes over the case he will look superior by comparison. The results are hilarious.

As for the films morale fiber, it is comprable to Steve Martin's other PG titles. It contains several negative implications but there's no explicitly bad content.
