6/10
This is where the ball got rolling but it still needed more refining
9 July 2022
While the first set the stage, this is definitely a league above in almost all regards, but still not the best in my opinion. Here we have a much richer (and convoluted, really a touch too far) and somewhat more intriguing plot, more interesting characters including 2 very important supporting actors in Cato and Dreyfus, and also importantly the writing allowed for much more action than the first much slower movie.

Cato and Dreyfus really add a ton here, but their characters are in "raw" form here and become more refined and better in later installments. Even Clouseau has a little more refinement to come and all this elevates some of the later flicks in the series above this one.

Overall a well done great mix of mystery and comedy. 6.5/10.
