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.
震撼人心的神作！印度电影太牛逼，《杰伊·比姆》是我去年观影TOP1，这部《宿敌》很有可能就成为今年观影TOP1了。
印度这些年的不少片让我们这边的观影者感慨：敢拍。我觉得更可贵的是，能审批通过，能上映让全国全世界的人看到——有了这样制度的前提，制片方到导演到团队，不存在“敢不敢”的问题。
故事很简单，一句话就能说完，但正因为这样能够有更多时间走进角色内心。虽然是Hanks的独角戏（依然是出类拔萃的表演），但机器人Jeff，勾勾Goodyear甚至是机器勾勾Deway都贡献了动人的表演。最后十分钟的音乐跟摄影都相当出色，末日废土只是设定，真正要讲的还是爱。
过誉，隔靴搔痒。视听感像电影，情绪煽动性极强的新闻专题片。配乐和歌曲不错，歌曲部分常速欣赏，其它1.5倍速飘过。以现实中印度强暴案的体量和深层根源来看，都改编电影直到看吐也难有改变的一天。电影其实是以谋杀而非强暴致死来规避风险，在没有原型事件情况下编拍并通过印度电影审查，国情不同，无需代入。2022·6·28 8.6/2189 短评889条 %83/13/4 【IMDb8.4/8300 全球票房313.51万美元】
第3630-故事是曲折的，直面问题是勇敢的，拍摄手法是商业的，改变是很难的。
科幻不是重点，重点在讲人的生命与存在。借用一句海子的诗：“活在这珍贵的人间，太阳强烈，水波温柔。”能感受世界，是人之于机器的区别，也是机器迈向真正生命的开端。故事舒缓平静，也确实乏味了些。
印度真的很能拍社会性话题的电影。虽然前半段拍的真的很浮夸，高频率的音乐和刻意煽动情绪，但是后半段的反转让我觉得前半段是必要的了。煽动情绪真的是肮脏的政治手段，你我他都逃脱不了。
同时信任也是生命力的根基。有个词，叫“生无可恋”，反过来说，也意味着，有可恋才是生的意义。所以人们才要通过各种方式——或感情或物质，或人性或神性——创造人生的意义，而这个过程就是去信任，信任“生有可恋”，我们才不会干涸。
应该拍成《爱，死亡，机器人》的某一集，搞成真人长片，着实有点浪费资源了。

法庭上的几段话真的精彩，振聋发聩！可是几千年的糟粕真的很难改变。
剧本很厉害，用一个案件包裹更大的案件，个体的丑恶撕开体制的丑恶。有金句有情绪点，但手法还是陈旧了些，最后二十分钟凌乱了些。但这样的“社会现实主义”电影也可以开发系列是我所始料未及的，印度电影掌握流量密码了。
印度正在发生深刻的变化，此片加上上周迎来的第一位底层女总统！
尽管电影本身有许多瑕疵，人物塑造刻板失败，法庭上用演讲代替举证让人感到非常混乱…但是，“政治通过媒体操纵民意、公众不关心事实更注重情绪宣泄”这两个core立得很好。
电影揭露了一通他们体质的弊端，可最后的结果是消灭这万恶的体质吗？不是的！
女主过于漂亮，印度种姓是刻在脸上的，女主和她母亲过大的视觉差算是选角不当。整部电影节奏、镜头反胃，BGM巨吵，由于庭审效果，两次反转没能带来任何惊喜，这部电影最成功之处是——它是印度电影。
故事B：种姓制度下寒门博士难改命50连跳；
电影—振聋发聩！现实—印度政府：你们尽管拍，有什么改变算我输。
让提出问题的人闭嘴的政治
絕望崩潰的世界，人性是通往希望的唯一道路。
