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.
画面氛围还不错，7分
一个人、一部半机器、一条狗的公路片，伴随着生存、回忆、信任、救赎式的历程，外景很美，情节缺乏渐进式的层次而显得寡味。
本片涉及的尺度全面突破，见血的金句频出，讨论了众多议题，完美地将阶级压迫、程序正义、政治阴谋、体制谋杀、舆论煽动、媒体愚弄、乌合之众等等，通过一具被焚毁的女尸，逐步串联起来，格局由小见大，剧本架构成熟，叙事手法高超，悬念在猝不及防间，带来了极强劲的反转，呼应了前文一切镜头伏笔，最重要是升华了故事主题的广度与深度，深入分析社会劣根，探索上层意识操控，彻底剖开政客与百姓之间根深蒂固的矛盾。
法理和人情的平衡永远摄人心魄，尤其是议题还涉及女性公知，强奸，烧尸等，就更能点燃公众的愤怒和道德感。然而结果正义的前提要有基本的程序正义和事实基础。不然大众的善良就会成为被煽动的工具。印度很多影片都聚焦法律制度，种姓制度等社会议题，具有很强的社会责任感。不过影片前期的铺垫太长，前四十分钟都在铺垫学生造势和反抗热情，虽然为剧情反转蓄力，但仍然显得过于冗长，有后面紧凑的节奏会更加分。
片子本身问题很大，前面卖关子整整两个钟头，看得我昏昏欲睡，看到 20 分钟就看不下去，今晚再看。2小时开始才揭开大幕，情节错综复杂，40分钟压缩太多东西了，主题太多，完全讲不完，重点不明确，又是革命又是政治又是贪腐又是校园政治，核心就是印度自上而下都完了。感觉印度这个国家就是个戏场嘛，就是给印度电影提供素材的
💯 电影，致敬 Tom Hanks，演技无可挑剔~
我还记得在马上要到达洛杉矶的时候，芬奇快不行了，他们在车下晒着久违的不会被紫外线灼伤的太阳，杰夫说自己做了一个梦。芬奇惊呆，他一个机器人竟然做梦了，，这个时候芬奇才意识到杰夫不单单是机器人，他是一个人了。
补标 一人一机一狗 人机相托 心光助前行
所有国家都在与问题的斗争中进步，只有我们在没问题的自嗨中坠落
题材非常棒，160多分钟里讨论了好多内容，虽然气氛有点刻意煽情，但真诚地努力和勇敢地发声就值得尊敬。啊…我们还在各种悬浮到奇葩的浪漫轻喜剧里奋勇挣扎，希望文化教育能早日跟上经济的步伐，无知傲慢的人终将自食恶果。
怎么说呢，前半段节奏冗长且慢镜头铺音乐强煽情，后半段庭审的程序正义和结果正义的辩论作为引子刚调动起情绪后最终落脚点依旧还是印度自身的种姓制度和社会问题；可我转念一想，电影是作者自己的表达，而且影片反映出的难道又仅是印度独有的问题么，很多时候打高分还是电影以外的东西。
反转再反转，结尾有点仓促，律师那条线信息量好大，可以展开拍个续集
【6.5-】看完回想这个故事一开始到底起始于什么主题，女性主义、社会movement 、法律与正义、后真相、种姓制度、政治阴谋…无数次剧情“反转”的背后也是主题的反转，大部分问题讨论到一半就被另一个问题所替代，两个半小时的篇幅仍然没有一点让人喘息的空间，导演似乎想把整个印度社会都放进影片中，放大每一个相关者的情感，但终究在一次次的抒情、闪回与反转中再而衰三而竭。就像片中法庭戏上的那句台词说的，问题太多，每十五分钟就要高血压一次，直到最后疲惫到无力关心人物与事件的结局。凭借剪辑与叙事诡计造就的人设反转又何尝不是一种后真相时代的叙事常态呢？最遗憾的其实是，这些我们一个都拍不了的主题他们都能拍，但大多都只浅尝辄止了。
这是拍给印度人看的吗？不止，这是拍给人看的
也许不能解决所有问题
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。
前一小时纯属铺垫，后面开始精彩。按这个程度应该还有续集可以拍。
今年又一部伟大的印度电影诞生
前面和中间都还可以，结尾太假了，幼儿园老师来帮调节这种国民级案件？？反方根本不会给你这种机会，其次证据也太假了，全靠一面之词。
印度电影在亚洲已经攀上顶流！
