Closseau.He is an error maker indeed.Cause of that shame news

in

public

,all

members

of

Dream

Team

decide

to

dismiss

Closseau.Finally,Laurance Milliken is dead.That is good news

for Dream Team members.Closseau doesnt believe that Laurance
Milliken is the thieft of pink panther.He is being cautious
someone else.But they ignone him and announce the public that
they have found the Tornado,the legendary thieft.Dream Team
members hold a celebration party.All the members gather except
Clousseau.He finds the real thieft of the pink panther,she is
Miss Sonia Solandres.But no one believes him,just his lovely
girl friend,Nicole Durant who belives him.She asks Sonia to
check her purse.She is suspicious toward her.Suddently,Sonia
Solandres takes her gun and shoots Closseau,but the bullet is
slip.Finally

the

riddle

of

the

pink

panther

theft

is

solved.Closseau is the winner.He solves the problem with his

self confident.He declares his marriage proposal toward Nicole
Durant.And then married in a church.
Actors and actresses in the pink panther are absolutely
good

in

acting.The

most

astonished

actor

is

Steve

Martin(Inspector Jacques Clouseau).He can act as Jacques who

need

extra

ordinary

internalization.And

the

acting

of

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan(Sonia Solandres)is very great.She can

play her role and interact with western and eastern actors.
The pink panther is a film that takes a beautiful scene
at some well known country.It is very interesting and not
boring enough.But,in this film the background music is not
support with the act.
You

may

get

something

after

you

watch

this

one.Maybe

joke,big smile,happiness,and advice.Yeah,although it is just a

comedy and full of humor,your eyes may be opened.We can see
that there is two sides people in this world.A good one and a

bad one.They are in your surroundings.Maybe he or she is your

friend or your enemy.We can not guess whether he or she will
betray us.Just giving the best for each other and be a good
human also never underestimate another person.

Thank You...........
