I wanted more scenes with the dogs.

"The Amazing Dobermans" is a harmless bit of fluff. While the plot makes no sense at all, the actors try their best AND you get to see some wonderful trained doggies.

James Franciscus plays Lucky...an undercover Federal agent whose actions NEVER make any sense during the course of the story. He is out to capture a bookie but his methods all leave you confused...especially when he insists he needs to join a circus AND use trained Dobermans to complete his mission! Along the way, he's assisted with the likes of Fred Astaire, Barbara Eden and Billy Barty.

Again...the story makes no sense when you think about it. It's a shame as I really wanted to like the film since it featured Fred Astaire...one of my favorite actors. The only plus are the dogs, though they aren't seen enough in the film to make it worth my time. Kind of a dud.
