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.
没有沉浸感，总是出戏，觉得这很假，都是演的，可能剧本太差了，小男孩演技也总让人出戏…珠玉在前，东木老了
简单真挚，但确实很多漏洞，墨西哥警长一秒变好人，老板娘任劳任怨，太扁平了
一直帅，希望这么优秀的电影人能长命百岁，不期而遇的美好！
牛仔大爷太老了，他刚一出场我都不相信自己的眼睛，全片充满了烈士暮年的感觉，也象征着牛仔精神的没落。
老爷子九十多了还自导自演，祝您长命百岁。
东木还能保持这么高的创作力实在是令人佩服。而且本身拍出来的东西也不差，确实很温情，也很治愈。

电影本身很淡很简单。能够看到老爷子还在拍电影就好温暖，

每一句台词不管是old还是macho都像是在说自己
情感上无比敬佩，理性上百感交集；那个深邃、坚毅、沉稳、笃信的老牛仔，多么不愿意看他老去，无论是精神上还是形体上，但是在这部英雄迟暮的电影里，所有的担心都跃然眼前，竭尽全力难掩衰枯。老爷子的眼神开始空洞无神，行走双膀后甩，心有余而力不足的感觉惹人生怜。其实，我们不能把它看成是一部戏，这是东木叔在告诉我们，一个91岁为电影而生的老人，正在刻不容缓的为自己灵魂的钟爱做着什么……
看着颤颤巍巍的东木，实在是太心疼了。但故事是真的挺无聊的
不忍看荧幕上风烛残年的颤巍巍老东木，对于他最后的作品，我的感觉就像片中老人对警长代理人老婆的狗所表达的话：I don't know how to cure"old"同样的意思。
好简单安逸又温柔的东木，最喜欢墨西哥小镇那段时光。
就我一个人注意到了开头东木年轻时骑着马的那张照片其实是他儿子斯科特吗😂😂😂
东木大神随便拍拍的片子，感觉没什么追求了己经

90岁的高龄还能演驯马的老牛仔，老人家实在是牛啊！墨西哥返美途中，将一个只想混在大街上谁也不相信的“弃儿”调教成一个有了明确认知的小牛仔，可谓内功深厚，呵呵。大公鸡在关键时刻太给力，不仅救命，还bonus了transportation，亮点大大滴。最后，老人家返回墨西哥老板娘身边，小牛仔开始闯世界了，you know where we are，可谓完美...
很难相信他老板会找一个这么大岁数的老头来执行这么危险的任务
雄鸡是硬汉，东木老爷子也是，从《黄金三镖客》到《廊桥遗梦》，从《不可饶恕》到《老爷车》，再到这一部，老爷子霸气，好电影便是如此，讲好一个故事，演好一个角色，老爷子做到了。
