Dobermann review by Lazarus
A French 'Lock Stocks' but unfunny and unpleasant
(0) of (0) members found this review helpful.
This aspires to the same blend of comedy and violence as Lock Stocks and Two Smoking Barrels but as it fails to be funny the violence becomes pretty unpleasant. Vincent Cassell and Monica Bellucci, married off screen, fail to bring their real life chemistry to the movie as they did in Irreversible.
And although the violence in Irreversible is more extreme it forms part of a serious and far more successful film.
Vincent Cassell is unconvincing and unentertaining as hard man Dobermann and Monica Bellucci makes nothing of the potential in playing a deaf sidekick. It's as if she's asked the producer to make her character deaf just to avoid having to deliver any lines.
Dobermann seems long at 99 minutes and the transfer to DVD is grainy and shaky. One to avoid unless you have to see absolutely everything Monica Bellucci has ever appeared in ;)
