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.
8/10.
Don’t know which is the worst, the music, the singing or the story #134
同为LMM的作品，比起《In the Heights》，我更喜欢这部（好多重合的演员），不仅剧情跟紧凑，歌曲也更好，加菲的表演很加分。ITH中只有一首印象深刻的歌，这部则太多了，最喜欢的还是Therapy，特别是歌词，笑死我了：I'm saying I feel bad, that you feel bad；About me feeling bad, about you feeling bad；About what I said, about what you said；About me not being able to share a feeling。
这么点破事拖了两小时，歌挺好听的
3.5 音乐很行，剧情比较割裂，人很可惜。
没有共鸣 唱的也感觉不咋好听。 6.5/10
非常无趣，只剩导演的一腔热情。加菲演技有点过誉，他适合演自带圣光的角色，某些时刻很动人，但没有辨识度，和其他形象没什么区别(如《血战钢锯岭》)。歌不好听，因为Larson的那首Come to Your Senses勉强给及格分吧。
噢，还有一句台词得送给我自己。
不错啊，不过可能更多才华来自原版音乐剧？加菲我觉得演的很好，艺术家的癫狂，还有一点可爱。不要看到一点不太写实的表演就说演的太过，是适配电影风格的。

片子和演员都没什么问题，关键看观众能不能投入感情，可惜观看过程中我的感情无处投放，可能音乐剧粉丝感触会更深吧。
用Jon自己的音乐剧《Tick, Tick...BOOM!》改编成了他自己传记片，形式很妙。电影形式的紧迫感非常明显，LMM本就是把握节奏的一把好手。只不过感觉，好像还是情绪不够。原版《Tick, Tick...BOOM!》音乐剧live单独拎一首歌出来，都比电影里表现的情绪强烈得多。或许是因为电影有一个情绪递进的需要？还是因为加菲在唱歌的表达上不如音乐剧演员？或者是一切的表现都还过于流于形式？||给三星完全是因为在一个好片的要求上看这部有些低于预期了。但是跨到四星去的话，以这部电影的呈现感觉尚不够。
3.5分。好就好在剧中大量的独白，但相比于爱乐之城差的有点多。音乐并不出彩，故事普普通通。
银幕和舞台的玩法很难兼容，还是放回舞台上吧……
从In the Height到这部，大概真的跟林曼威无缘了。穷困潦倒不被理解的艺术家故事早已被拍烂，本该突出的社会背景几乎完全就是背景，廉价的绿幕更加让影片的时代感大打折扣。听完伯恩斯坦紧跟着再听这部真的太不够听了
加菲尔德演得还是挺用力的，可总觉得他还是《血战钢锯岭》中的样子，没法跳脱成音乐人。另外对原型人物Jon也没啥了解，不知他好在哪里，影片中的歌曲，说实话，没有一首好听的，都比较一般吧，难以让人感到共鸣。
其中辛酸，也许身为创作者更感同身受吧，想起自己三十岁前焦虑到离职去写自己的作品，以及现在，废了三年心血的作品还在漫漫无期的打磨中，早已明白了要不停地写下去写下去，已经开始了下一部和再下一部的构思，但意识到自己不能再像曾经一样孤注一掷，必须向现实妥协养活自己。tick tick boom，就是创作者的那份对流逝时间的恐惧和燃尽自身追求一刻灿烂的创作热情吧。
不熱衷音樂劇，也不關注百老匯，很多隱藏彩蛋get不到。當勵志故事看三星半。
以为奋斗，其实是故事
滴答，滴答……嘣！
