Stop what you're doing. From the musical composer of Avengers: Infinity War, Back to the Future, Predator, Practical Magic, and Forest Gump I present to you...the Doberman Gang. A sort of children's film that is part crime thriller, part slow TV, and part trained dog videos.
After multiple botched robberies, Eddie is done trying to rob banks with humans because there are too many errors. Eddie wants more control...How 'bout robots? No way. Doberman Pinchers? Yeah let's do that. After enlisting a serviceman to help him, Eddie and his group of friends slowly plan the perfect bank robbery, complete with six trained dogs.
This movie is very unusual…
This movie makes me want to be a dog trainer. 🤣
For real. This movie is really cool if you like dogs (like me) you will enjoy it most of the time because they really show how to train this gang of dogs.
There is the story of a group of guys that failed robbing a bank, putting the money in the wrong car 🤣and after that Eddie decided to get dogs and train them to rob a bank.
We can see all the process until they are ready to make it happen.
The idea is already cool, just the ending changed a few times and I didn't like it. In the last 5 seconds I was like Wtf but maybe because they wanna make me watch a second part, and yesss there are two more movies about these guys (dogs).
A group of dobermans are trained to rob a bank. I'm sorry, let me rephrase the premise:
DOGS ROB A FREAKING BANK.
My favourite line in the film, and possibly in movie history:
You know, Dobermans were the real killers in Germany.
Thanks to BHachacha for turning me on to the existence of a movie only the seventies could have produced.
Fun bank caper movie with an absurd plot. I wish my dog knew how to shake hands, these ones rob a bank. Its dated and corny but fun
DOGS ROBBING A BANK DOGS ROBBING A BANK HOLY SHIT
I don't want to alarm anyone, but this movie is about a gang of dogs trained to rob a bank. That is the best premise I have ever heard of, and likely better than most I have not.
It's like 70% dog training sequences, but who gives a shit. It's about dogs robbing a bank.
I am not exaggerating when I say that the trailer has everything worth watching. Nothing happens, and I mean NOTHING for an entire hour. It is only in the last twenty minutes when we see the dogs in action. And again, it's everything you saw in the trailer, only edited horribly to stretch out the scene. Think about it, dogs robbing a fuckin' bank and they somehow managed to make it boring. The premise of this movie sounds a bit better than it actually is. What we actually get is about 10 minutes of set up, an hour of dog training, and a ten minute heist.
Im just a cat person. 🇺🇲
Dogs robbing a bank! You hear me? Dogs robbing a bank! The type of film you watch for one scene and one scene only, dogs robbing a bank! Otherwise its a laid back mostly inoffensive likeable enough hang out comedy heist film. Mostly kid friendly with jarring shifts in tone with sex, misogyny, and my favorite graphic bloody violence. There is a delightful theme song the film plays at least four times over footage of dogs running.
The first film to feature composer Alan Silvestri and to feature the "No animals were harmed" copy pasta. I can not believe I get to watch three more of these doberman films.
Four stars out of five.

I’m currently training six dobermans to kindly convince Steven Soderbergh to reboot this forgotten masterpiece as Ocean’s K-Nine.
In the vaunted pantheon of movies about bank-robbing canines, THE DOBERMAN GANG must be considered a blue-ribbon winner. The first narrative feature directed by television editor Byron Chudnow (F TROOP), THE DOBERMAN GANG was a surprise hit for Dimension Pictures and led to three (!) sequels.
Byron Mabe, a producer and director of softcore films like SPACE THING and THE BUSHWACKER before settling into a career as a television guest actor, stars in this PG movie as the leader of a gang of shockingly inept bank robbers (after a heist, they accidentally lock the loot in the trunk of the wrong car!). Believing he could pull off the perfect crime if he could eliminate the human factor, Mabe gets the…
Such a fun movie! It's essentially a heist film with an amazing hook - a gang of dogs are trained to rob a bank. While this plot could have easily have belonged to a terrible made-for-Hallmark Channel movie, the film manages to escape from its logline and become something special. There's a warmth and breeziness to the film that would have made this one of my favorite films if I had seen it growing up (the awesome soundtrack by Alan Silvestri wouldn't have hurt either) but there's this dark undercurrent running through the whole movie - dark enough to give me pause before I would show it to a kid.
See this film!
