Dobermann and his depraved gang of misfits are the most ruthless group of bank robbers Paris has ever seen, but when they successfully execute a daring daylight robbery, they land on the radar of Commissaire Cristini, a brutal and ruthless Policeman who happens to be crazier than the bandits he’s chasing. Leading the charge in extreme French genre filmmaking, Dobermann remains one of the most deranged and aggressively violent films to come out of France. (Fractured Visions)

Unmistakable comic book origins, a jittery camera supporting an aggressive audiovisual style, long gun barrels, and characters with a trace amount of goodness. Cassel, channeling his inner Michael Madsen, deserved much more screen time, as aside from the grenade-blessing abbot, the others were of little significance. Of course, except for the corrupted Karyo, who, after all the misdeeds, decided to do something good at the end by repainting the center line on Parisian streets. P.S.: Monica Bellucci with tendencies towards nymphomania is probably every man's dream wife. The fact that she can't hear you when you want to grab a beer from the fridge for the football on TV might start to bother you over time. ()
