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.
不畏强权为民请命这才是一个人权律师的正义之举，扎心的剧情，写实的手法，真心敬佩印度电影人的勇敢和专业，只有民主的宽松的审核机制才能拍出伟大的作品，任何艺术只要没有政治的介入都能大放异彩。
漂亮国还给印度戴上了最大的民主国家，若这样的垃圾国家都是民主，民主真的是被滥用了。
前段有点拖沓，但总体还是精彩。 印度电影真的太长了！
电影里只有逆袭成功的童话，现实中看不见咸鱼一生的平凡。
宁愿做个总会被俗套剧情感动得稀里哗啦的人，也不要扮那个老是唱反调的人间清醒逼。好看！
speechless... but there is hope and justice. ironically though, in blackwater, it takes years in a modern western world. and then there is also
至于麽，真的至于麽。
如果说大陆电影这么多年有一部最接近“周星驰”内核的电影，反倒是这一部。影片对于小人物下手足够狠，明明以为到了最底层了，发现还有下下铺。而最后的励志一方面很燃很痛快，但另一方面，它并不会真的解决任何问题，它只是一种纯粹精神上的飞升。
电影里的整个警察系统都烂在根里里，黑漆漆的，官官相护，从高层到警察的一线人员都已经没有心了，只能说印度真敢拍啊。
（三星半）它的现实意义比电影本身重要得多，在解决问题之前最重要的是正视问题本身。
这个场景，应该被载入中国影史。
音乐太会啦，情绪完全有被调动起来。眼距宽又怎么样，我觉得很有特色很可爱啊，某些网友真是奇怪，一定要对标日漫式大眼吗？大赞场景和人设，有中国特色，也是我所认识的村景。最重要的是，被平凡人的故事打动。
全片正是一种周星驰叙事与一种现实叙事的反复激荡，正如阿娟一次次得到又失去、戴上又摘下的狮头，正如每个小人物都曾在脑海中发生过的挣扎。
看得我一肚子愤怒，人怎么可以如此没有人性？
影片结局出狮头的残缺、阿娟的落水以及最后彩蛋处阿娟又重新回归生活去到上海打工，都让影片立足于朴素英雄主义，给予每个现实人生活的指引，并克制地留下了“传统文化亟待挽救”的命题，意蕴悠长。
台詞極其低幼，情節極其套路——對五條人歌曲的大量運用，不過是借用一點廣東縣城的感覺，五條人同影片直露傳達的好鬥進取、艱苦創業進而逆天改命的理念不說截然相反，也可以說毫無關聯。當然，結尾對跳最高樁的結果和植物人父親醒來的表達收了一下、顯得模糊，彩蛋則顯示舞獅並未真正改變主人公打工人的命運，約可讓人善意地理解整部影片的正能量或許未必完全出自編導的自由意志。此外，暫且不論廣東社會的實況究竟如何，影片的表達對於女性可謂極度不友善：社會和舞獅行業堵死了女性的上升空間，技能再高超也僅可充當花瓶並早早退居二線；男性舞獅明星則將中年後的泯然眾人歸咎於以妻子為唯一代表的回歸家庭和事業的壓力，其重整旗鼓則建立在女性痛徹心扉的“悔悟”及全然擔下他的那份家庭責任的前提下。2021年12月4日14:30於太古倉3號廳，點映。
其实我们身边有比这还精彩的剧情，只是没人敢拍
这又从另一个侧面触及了“周星驰”式的残忍。
就这样抄周星驰，都抄不好。
很让人震撼的电影，直面社会中的丑恶一面，剧情也是层层推进，正义战胜邪恶的杰作！不过别指望在国内能拍出这种题材了。
