Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - They're master criminals AND they're house broken!
The doberman's are the "gimmick" in an otherwise average movie. However they are an impressive gimmick.The trainers get the dogs to do some amazing things.

If you are interested in animal training or dobermans, you'll like this movie.

Highly recommend again

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hammett for the '70's
For me this is one of those great, underrated movies that I end up watching whenever I'm channel surfing and I find it's on.

My personal favorites are Edmond O'Brien as the owner of the local liquor store and Arthur O'Connell as the proprietor of the town coffee shop. The ... Read More
