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.
一名大学教授的残忍谋杀案引发了学生骚乱，临危受命起来调查的警察，再抓捕到4名罪犯后，由于愤怒，在押送途中枪杀罪犯，随即受到审判。在法庭上，面对4名前科累累，底种族肤色人种罪犯，舆论一边倒地指向警察为正义英雄。但是在最后关头，却被“铁拐李”拿出的证据所击穿，原来所谓的英雄也不过是参与其中的一颗引导舆论的棋子，而且还是以妻女为要挟的棋子……【真相：正义英雄把自己犯罪的证据偷偷给对方律师】
影片用反转又反转抛出了印度社会的根本问题：制度性腐败，可惜并没有在影片结尾给出我们答案，甚至当观众以为律师是理性的化身之时，又通过一次反转告诉我们这一切的动机是为了复仇。影片最奇怪的地方在于，它用一种煽动式的电影语言告诉观众：不要被媒体煽动，不要被政客煽动。但是它的核心观点之一还是勇敢的，大概可以总结为八个字：去你妈的种姓制度。
前半程之冗余也让节奏崩作一盘稀泥，
可以剪的更好看。
除了羡慕只有羡慕。
也太drama了 克制点冷静的讲故事不好吗 非得整的跟印度歌舞似的那么热闹 //片头那一大段把死的活的在朝的在野的这个邦那个教的现实的精神的都摘了个干净 那么强的求生欲有些人看不见非得搁那夹枪带棒叭叭叭
太冗长了，而且学生会那个女的，还有那四个罪犯莫名就让人痛恨，以至于后面揭开了幕后，还是感觉前面那几个人可恨，观感不好
印度人对自己社会问题反省和批判的力度让我们汗颜，虽然表现手法直白幼稚了一点，还是给个高分支持。
大尺度爽片，令人那啥的是，印度也是什么题材都能拍啊……
中国电影不仅在剧本讲故事的能力上，更在国家社会议题的反思和讨论上，离韩日以及印度电影差的越来越远了
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
口号谁都能喊，难的是如何做。这种题材电影，那个国家电影工作者都能拍，难的是是否解决了现实问题，而不是一而再再而三的拍。重视对方，才会想尽办法控制审查；当达到了蔑视的程度，谁管你，反正也掀不起大风浪，你想怎么拍就怎么拍。我并不希望以后我们国家这种类型的电影遍布，如果真的到了那个时候，说明真的烂了。任何人都以为自己了解真相，然而你看到的却是别人要你看到的。
印度文艺工作者的尺度和表达程度我们已经望尘莫及了。但这部电影本身我可真喜欢不起来。
学会做减法是印度电影百尺竿头更进一步的最大难关。
一开始就故作紧张的音乐也吸引不了人看下去。
这是一个13亿人都在追寻的真相。
给国人带来巨大震撼！这就是操控舆论的下场！当法治变成人治，当舆论左右司法，这时，你以为你看到的就是正义吗？PS：看到结尾感觉学生真是最好煽动的群体，青春热血又自以为是，政客们应该挺喜欢的～
可能为了避免激起观看者强烈的情绪，配乐都是很缓和悠长又哀伤的，没有什么很强律动的配乐。
一个现代社会，居然一宗凶杀案究竟是恶意车祸还是qj案都分不清就开始定罪，真是太可笑了。影片主旨不是案件而是种姓制度和严重社会问题。
Jana Gana Mana-人民的意志-印度国歌，译为宿敌意味减半，原意恰到好处，人民的意志被政客玩弄股掌之间，主导社会舆论，引导人民情绪，自以为伸张所谓的正义，终究难逃棋子的命运，影片将印度种姓制度以及引发的性别、党争、司法、暴力、犯罪、教育等一系列衍生痼疾作为内核，再披上悬疑的外衣，通过设置特殊人物、多重反转达成，节奏和叙述则掌控不足，缝合拼凑感明显。
