Fritz Lang kétrészes némafilm-klasszikusának főhőse Dr. Mabuse, a húszas évek weimari Németországának jellegzetes intellektuális bűnözője. Ő nem erőszakkal, hanem komoly lélektani kutatásokkal dolgozik és ér el hatalmat embertársai fölött. Hipnotizáló képességét alaposan kihasználva, egész környezetét akarata alá hajtja, és legázol mindenkit, aki az útjába kerül. (Örökmozgó)

What Fritz Lang achieved in his two-part films is undoubtedly exceptional. To this day, I still vacillate between the mastery of Aud Egede Nissen and Gertrud Welcker, who dazzled me more, because only Rudolf Klein-Rogge is a definitive god at first glance. The brilliant story of Mabus continues to be overshadowed by the mere fact that his story was set in the 1990s (!), which really wasn't necessary. So back to the 1920s and nowhere else.

This film is clearly characterized by an interesting atmosphere, beautiful, sometimes incredibly dark images and a story that could be compared to any modern spy drama without shame. Fritz Lang already proved at this time how great of a filmmaker he is, and it is expected that we can look forward to more interesting pieces from him. And ultimately, this proved to be true. What may be sometimes hard to bear in the film are the overly theatrical performances, especially in the end where Mabuse becomes too theatrical. It is a part of silent films and his madness is prominently highlighted. However, Fritz Lang truly shows his filmmaking power with some of the images. "M" is still "M".
