The second installment of the Mabuse story.
Fascinating, chilling account of the most vicious criminal mind you ever will see portrayed. You think terrorism is new? Mabuse had a master plan making OBL's seem like a child's.
Outside of the heroine's complete inability to act and her physical ugliness... highly recommended. You will be treated to Fx which make our current computer stuff appear dated. You will also see many original scenes which have been borrowed ad nauseum.
How many crime movies do you see nowadays that boast memorably evil (not lip-smacking caricatures such as Lector) villains AND intelligent, humorous, multi-dimensional detectives?
As you will see, Lohmann is Mabuse's equal... or is he?
