* EnsembleDarkHorse: Creator/HerbertLom gives the role of Dreyfus just as much justice as he did in prior installments, and finally gets to play the role ''without'' being driven to the nuthouse by the end. He remains an ally to the end, even [[spoiler: becoming Jacques' stepfather before the credits roll.]]

* {{Sequelitis}}: Like ''Film/TrailOfThePinkPanther'' and ''Film/CurseOfThePinkPanther'', the film was the yet another failed and the last attempt of Creator/BlakeEdwards to keep the franchise alive after the death of Creator/PeterSellers. The result was the death of the franchise for thirteen years, before Creator/SteveMartin rescued it briefly with two films made between 2006 and 2009.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Gambrelli. Either he comes off as an aloof but charming detective or completely inferior to Clouseau. Some appreciate the NarmCharm from him, while others consider him even worse than his predecessor [[Film/CurseOfThePinkPanther Clifton Sleigh]].
