This was... a masterpiece. Sit back and learn how to make a film.

In my opinion The Testament of Dr. Mabuse is better than Dr. Mabuse: The Gambler, but it still isn't perfect. However it packs a lot of thrills in a short two hours and there's a lot to love here. Lang was at his peak of his powers when he made this film and it's so gloriously expressionistic, dreamlike and beautiful. Also it's great to see Tubby Lohmann again. Mabuse's piercing gaze will forever haunt me.

Another great film. A part of Lang's Dr. Mabuse film cycle and I think the best one. Well worth the time. In fact any time Lang is behind the camera is time well spent. Criterion has a fine edition. I'd love to see it in a theater again and missed it when it recently showed. Agony!

I like Lang's USA edit, "The Crimes of Dr. Mabuse" more than this original cut

****1/2. Scenes that belong to Movie History: the first five minutes in the printing-house, the murder of Dr. Kramm, the car chase in the forest, every scene played by Rudolf Klein-Rogge and Otto Wernicke. Indispensable.

Watched this back to back with Dr. Mabuse: Der Spieler. Great follow up to the original and inspired use of Klein-Rogge as Mabuse. The real delight though was to find the return of Inspector Lohmann from "M"! Wernicke's portrayal is spot on and compulsively watchable.
