In this crime comedy, Herbert Zaenker (Martin Held) is the retired judge who is called on to monitor the movements of a shady criminal masking as a boxing promoter. Bruno "Dandy" Steigler (Mario Adorf) has just returned to Berlin and plans a series of robberies with his criminal cronies. Herbert uses his experience to recruit former criminals to thwart the efforts of the gang, who manage to stay one step ahead of the puzzled Dandy. Herbert continues to befuddle the crime boss as the legal dragnet tightens around the gang. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi
