If The Young Girls of Rochefort was Demy's attempt at making a big Hollywood-style American musical, then Dobermann is Kounen's attempt at making a big Hollywood-style 90s trash action film. It's got all the sleaze and style of one complete with the homophobia and misogyny to boot, nearly over-the-top to an extent where it feels parodic. Like, I'm not offended, as a queer person, here when a police officer says, "the reason your son keeps farting isn't because of your cooking but rather because his ass is full of cum", I'm genuinely laughing
