A brilliant and outragously funny satire of society, 7 December 1999
Author: Dave Joerg ([email protected])
"Flodder" is one of the funniest movies ever made and few people realise that it is a Dutch movie made by none other than the Holland version of John Carpenter, the famous Dick Maas, author and director of the thriller "Amsterdamned". The Flodder family is the reincarnation of the term a-social. When the whole family bunch, basically all bastards, criminals and sluts must be relocated from their City slum because of toxic waste under their house, the city council house no choice. The only available space is in the "Zoendal" - the "Sun Valley" the best area in Amsterdam where all doctors, snobs and businessmen can afford to live their lives. And where the central point of interest and politics is the tennis club of the community. The Flodder family brings devastation to the tranquil world that ruled before. They are simply unbelievable. The characterisation is incredibly funny, beginning with Ma Flodder who searches other people's trash cans for food or making illegal liquor in her cellar and ending with the eldest daughter who is the biggest slut on earth. Together they make the most horrible family imaginable, a sort of immoral mirror image to the Brady Bunch or the Waltons. When the City counsel of Amsterdam hoped that the Flodders would show their good will to be more civilised in their new area, it turns out that Holland's most famous family would rather bring out the worst in the rich people of "Sun Valley"-wonderland. The rest is a hilarious, brilliant and well made social satire that can be watched as a provocative movie as well as a straightforward comedy. Dick Maas at his best. I salute him! Flooder was the Dutch smash hit in 1986 and brought two sequels and a tv series. All of the sequels were nice but not as great as the original.
Flodders (1986) is available on DVD in Germany in a dubbed German version in Dolby Digital 5.1. under the name:
"Flodders -Eine Familie zum knutschen"
Why is First Floor Features, the producer of the movie not bringing the Dick Maas blockbusters out on DVD in the Netherlands, I wonder. The are not even available on video there. These movies have so much potential, still to this day and have a huge silent but true following.
突然发现了印度电影的法宝：通过宏大议题引发讨论，解决问题靠个别人良心，制度性问题完全隐形，满足了下层的宣泄，又替上层盖上了遮羞布。牛逼。
印度新片，直面社会犯罪案件，情节几次大反转，虽然漏洞很多，还可看。
很久没看过这么精彩的主旋律电影了，配乐尤其出彩，而且剧情也没拖后腿，看到结局的时候内心真是五味杂陈，没什么好说的，我只希望这部电影能进明年的豆瓣年度电影榜单。
科幻末世感的<一条狗的使命>，苹果出品的好莱坞俗套老陈旧就不是俗套老陈旧了？
虽然情节、设定背景都平淡且老套的很，但它还是能一步步把你引入陷进让你泪流不已。
女性安全、种姓问题、民粹暴力，该片虽然看似自揭伤疤，但是主角们仍是些高种姓，敢想敢拍的前提还是高种姓掌握话语权
后半段是跪着看完的。
印度电影也跟随韩国电影的脚步，安上了飞翔的翅膀
原来是阿甘、大兵瑞恩、幸福终点站啊。
新瓶装旧酒，换汤不换药。寡淡而俗套，总的来说就是——平庸。更令人郁闷的是，连起伏和历程都不甚明了，编剧在芬奇的都做得如此模糊，怎么又能希冀在杰夫身上做得很好呢？
过于脸谱化了。当然商业电影的目的就是为了满足尽可能多的人的观影需求。在印度具有广大的被种姓制度压迫的底层民众以及长期处于不平等地位的女性群体。这类电影很容易激发民粹主义，后半段的反转给予了警示。
只有印度这种打肿脸充胖子的「第三世界民主国家」才能勾勒出这样光怪陆离人格分裂的魔幻图景：永远蒙昧绝望腐败，永远自我纠偏热泪盈眶……
至少在电影这个行业，我们现在是被印度这个“拥有13亿人口的大国”远远甩在后边了，望尘莫及。
正义虽迟但到。不得不说，这电影挺牛的，既直白地揭露了某些社会不公的现象和讽刺了某些政客为了上位不择手段，又做到了多重反转。看到最后还挺解气的。
不知我们何时可以有这种自信。
汤姆汉克斯老师演这种温情小品真是手到擒来啊
反转还是可以的，就是慢镜头和配乐太抒情了，导致后面的反转风格不搭。
法庭开始非常精彩；很多社会和人性角度的思考，有破有立；印度社会能有这些反思还是蛮厉害的，300年colonisation功不可没。结尾有点仓促，瑕不掩瑜。
你遇到各种事 你无法控制的事 你会有原始的情绪 在这种时候 如何应对 采取何种行动 将定义你是谁
律师一句句的质问真的就像导演的满腔赤诚，对这个国家发出的一声声呐喊，每15分钟就有人遭受不幸，为何只有她被看见了？反观我们，那些被看见的是不幸也是幸，网络以秒在更新热度，又有多少被遗忘。我们满足于获得“即时正义”，而鲜有人关心与追究根本。说到这，又要自省，是老师说的：坐在观众席我们有评论的权利，那我们敢踏进去吗？
