Continuity mistake: Closeau gets tripped by a man walking his dog while on the way home from the market. He starts spilling either salt or sugar all the way home. As he gets of the elevator at his home he leaves a trail out of the elevator and to his door. His neighbor lady comes into the hallway and he performs a little softshoe. Now the problem is, when he left the elevator he hadn't spilled much if any in there. When his neighbor makes her way towards the elevator, there is a big pile of the sugar/ or salt in the elevator that wasn't there just before the camera angle change.

5/10. Honestly it's hard to watch this movie knowing Peter Sellers isn't in it. He made the Pink Panther series what it is and this one's not the same without him.
Deputy Comissioner Lasorde: Read this most carefully and give me your opinion.
Insp. Jacques Clouseau: I will read my opinion and give you yours most carefully.
Trivia: Trail of the Pink Panther was made by editing together deleted scenes and outtakes from five previous Pink Panther films and is widely regarded as a tasteless attempt to cash in on Peter Sellers' death. Sellers' widow, Lynn Frederick, sued MGM, United Artists, and director Blake Edwards, accusing them of tarnishing her late husband's reputation and seeking to have the film banned. She was awarded US$1,000,000 in damages, but her application to have the film banned was dismissed.
