Review: "Dobermann is the sort of hyperviolent, uber-stylized film that is incredibly entertaining while being utterly frightening (to those with weak stomachs) at the same time.
The lead cop exemplifies this - he is an avenging angel - a pure creature of violence who rampages through the movie, leaving more destruction in his wake than the title character. Every other character in the film pales when compared with this character's nastiness... there's no way they could hope to keep up.
The action is used in short controlled bursts [a small opening piece, a robbery in the middle and the obligatory climatic violent orgasm] and is perhaps most notable for its slick camera work and high degree of violence [not splatterfilm level, but definitely competitive with John Woo]. Curiously, the director is at his best with explosive weapons... [particularly the Dobermann's pistol grenades] something most American directors have forgotten how to do."
