Pink Panther Of all the memorable characters in the history of movie comedy, few are as revered as one Inspector Jacques Clouseau as played by Peter Sellers in The Pink Panther films that were directed by Blake Edwards. These films featured Sellers at his improvisational best, mixing physical humor with garbled dialogue in a mock […]
Pink Panther Strikes Again The relationship between Peter Sellers’ Inspector Clouseau and Herbert Lom’s Chief Inspector Charles Dreyfus is really and truly unlike any in the history of cinema: A famous, respected French police detective (who is thought of by most people to be a genius) and the man who knows him best, his boss […]
Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World’s End After all the negative talk I’ve heard about this, I must say I came out of this pretty surprised and a little overwhelmed.

Planet Terror Considered by most to be the more over the top half of Grindhouse, Robert Rodriguez’s effort sadly still doesn’t live up to the more subtle and effective entry by Tarantino: Plot holes and lack of exposition clog up the film nearly from the beginning, starting with the confusing opening shootout at a military […]
Platoon Among movies about the Vietnam War, there are four that stand out in cinema history as being the absolute best, not just about Nam, but as war movies in general, since obviously THAT war made for the most dramatic, cinematic content, and given the glut of lame, boring, whiny, preachy, and overly political films […]
