This is an exciting picture with plenty of intrigue , killings , twists and turns . From start to finish action-packed , fast-paced , thrills , emotion and suspense are continued . A casino heist is carried out by a motley band of violent thieves , and one of them to take the loot kills his colleagues . Azucena (Maria Barranco) , the fiancee of one of the robbers , decides to seize the money for herself . On the run she stumbles upon Verónica (Kiti Manver) , the manager of an asylum who wishes to enrichment herself too . Along the way they stumble across some very strange roles and everybody wishes to take the cash at whatever cost , including executing grisly murders . Meanwhile , the Police investigation uncovers dirty maneuvers of others cops who also want to take the cash or pasta and they won't stop at nothing to get it . A cualquier precio, costase lo que costase... (Anyway, at any cost...) . Una película salvajemente cínica (A savagely cynical film)
A moving thriller with noisy action , disorder , mayhem , chaos , plot twists and loads of nonsense violence . As a hold-up about forty-eight million pesetas robbed from a bingo parlor erupts a series of murders and violence set against the backdrop of the blood-soaked Basque country , showing Bilbao city underground in the early 90s. The thrilling search for the loot will tangle up a misfit group of corrupt roles until an ultra-violent and really bloody final highlight . This is the sort of story we've seen many times before -ambitious delinquents and corrupt polices- but it is always fun when is executed with style and Urbizu certainly seems to have that . The cast gets passable performances though their characters have not much deepness to enrich the flick , as they're only led for greed and ambition. This film grabs our attention , beginning with a trilling heist and finishing in extremely brutal shootings and astonishing crimes at the climax. As the real protagonists are Maria Barranco and Kiti Manver providing acceptable interpretations . The main amusement of the movie turns out to be to discover the long list of familiar faces playing the varied group of secondaries , such as : Pedro Díez del Corral , Pilar Bardem , Ramón Barea , Caco Senante , Pep Oliva , Saturnino García , Felipe García Vélez , Álex Angulo , Maite Blasco, Klara Badiola , Chete Lera , Txema Blasco, and the usual and always sympathetic Luis Ciges ."Anything for the Dough" or ¨Anything for the bread¨ international title, results to be really incorrect , that's why ¨Dough¨is badly titled and ¨Pasta¨in spanish language is a slang of the word "cash or dinero", neither dough, nor bread .
It packs a colorful photography with juicy atmosphere by Carles Gusi (Torrente , Box 507 , El Niño , Cell 211), deemed to be one of the best Spanish cameramen . He displays an appropriate cinematography and photographs adequately the exteriors and interiors , being shot on location in Bilbao, showing ordinary sightseeing from the town . Moving and stirring musical score by the early deceased Bernardo Bonezzi . The motion picture was professionally directed by Enrique Urbizu who has won various Goya awards . In fact ¨Todo por la Pasta¨ won : Goya Awards 1992 Winner Goya Best Supporting Actress : Kiti Mánver , Nominee Goya Best Original Screenplay : Luis Marías , Best Original Score : Bernardo Bonezzi , Best Special Effects : Kit West . Director/writer Enrique Urbizu is a specialist on Thriller as proved in ¨Todo Por la Pasta¨, ¨Cachito¨ , ¨Caja 507¨ , ¨La Vida mancha¨¨and on comedy , such as : ¨Cuernos Mujer¨, ¨Como Ser Infeliz¨ and ¨Tu Novia Esta Loca¨ but especially Urbizu is the director of No Peace For The Wicked (No Habra Paz Para Los Malvados), an upcoming 'tough cop with big gun' movie coming out of Spain , this is his best film surpassing even "La Caja 507" and usually played by his fetish actor , Jose Coronado .
