The 1,000 Eyes of Dr. Mabuse

Final part of Fritz Lang's Mabuse trilogy.

Least interesting of the three, this one is a crime drama/spy thriller/Cold War chess game. The plot is intriguing but unfolds like a rather tepid French New Wave movie. Elements of the psychic and astrology aren't very interesting, meaning to disprove skeptics.

It only heats up in the last 5 minutes, with the biggest twist in the story rather suspenseful. And I liked the depressing alternate French ending better. Meh.......
