La gang dei doberman

Crime planner Byron Mabe is tired of having his beautifully worked out robberies loused up when one of the books fails to follow follow the plan or tries to double-cross him. So he hires a dog trainer and buys a bunch of Doberman Pinschers to execute a bank robbery.

It's almost a Disney film, with its love of animals and twangy, country-western score, except for the implied sex out of wedlock, blood from the Dobies savaging people upon command and, oh yeah, the fact that a bunch of crooks are the heroes of the movie. Most of the movie is taken up with the planning and training stages, and by the time the robbery takes place, the audience pretty much knows how it will go. Yet the wackiness of the entire scheme more than makes up for the lack of well-known performers.

Director Byron Chudnow had spent much of his career up to this as a TV editor, and it does have the pacing and look of something from that medium. Certainly, he paces the movie very well, and it was sufficiently successful to result in two sequels; a 'reboot' is currently scheduled for release in 2022.

I first saw this in the late 80s on a vhs. Revisited it recently on a pirated dvd, it is vhs ripped but a clean copy. It is available on YouTube but I bought the dvd for my collection.

It is about a gang of robbers who after a failed robbery, train dogs with the help of a professional trainer to rob a bank.

This movie is the first n d best film about dogs robbing a bank. Of course it is a far-fetched one but with lots of humor n solid tension. The best part is the training n minor details like putting a spiked collar to prevent strangulation.

When I saw this movie on IMDb I remembered it from my childhood. At that time, It had disturbed me in someway but I couldn't remember why. So I decided to rewatch.

The story is simpler than I remember. I liked it this time. Although the quality is very very low and acting is looking so cheap, anyway, the idea is original. Maybe it should be remade with a better execution.

Finally I solved the reason why I was disturbed. It was about the final flick. I thought that was not fair in that time, but I changed my mind. It is very cool.

I recommend it in your free time for killing time.

I seem to remember this film being a pretty big hit when it came out in 1972 and it's easy to understand why. It's a fast paced tale of five doberman pinschers who hold up a bank and get away with the loot. There are some rather dull human beings around but pay them no attention--this is all about the dogs.

A group of clever criminals train a six Doberman Pinchers to rob a bank for them in this low-budget crime caper film. Director Byron Chudnow doesn't display a great deal of finesse, nor does the cast of unknowns for that matter, but he manages to get the job done. One of the better B-caper films of its time. This is a guilty pleasure I return to time and time again.
