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.
片里那种宏大bgm的半喜剧效果真的产生奇异的效果。我们对这种黑暗习以为常，对希望却表现出各种不适应
罪犯不精明，案件也并不惊天，但是印度推进剧情的能力太厉害了，节奏掌握的游刃有余，急缓张驰有度，慢的唱歌，快的燃爆的BGM，让你两个多小时视听都被牵着走！
为啥少一颗星呢，紧张程度还是少一些。全靠剧情支撑。印度黑暗，一点点再改变，希望我们也是。
印度版的辩护人。很有力量的一部电影，讲述为了底层人民的正义和公平而反抗压迫。另外，印度好像可以随便游行抗议，而且是可以挥着共产党旗抗议的啊……
就……真的很中规中矩的一部电影，没有情感，没有悬念，没有期待，结果也如料到的一样正能量，这种电影真的很像我看主旋律作品的感觉，台词配音太出戏，而且剧情超级琐碎，感觉乱七八糟，尤其对脸盲的我来说开头几十分钟真的煎熬，最大感触还是基于真实人物改编这一点吧……

越是落后越多压迫，越是卑微越多苦难。
印度版《辩护人》，剧情真实，但依旧非常不习惯歌舞。当然，不敢对比。
好看，但影片铺垫有点太长了。事件比较值得称道，但也是不幸中的理想化状态了。这种类型影片的影评真是没眼看，精印都有😅
这是我看的第一部印度正剧吧。现在想来，印度电影给人最深刻的印象是一贯的喜剧风格。我喜欢那样的印度电影，有欢快的舞蹈和音乐，要表达的主题也自然地呈现出来。
你可以有一百种理由嫌弃印度，唯独印度电影不行！我们在印度电影中看到了人生的深度，也看到了这个国家的贫穷与残酷，但总有那么一丝光温暖着人心，这可能就是印度电影最大的魅力。
罗马不是一日建成的，希望人类世界越来越好。
在以前的印度电影中很少看到的政治派系斗争的影子，不断描绘的令人发指暴行与无耻谎言，让人感到这世界上没有安全的地方。
片子还行，主要是题材优势，这种肯为底层人民发声的律师都很值得敬佩
五颗星给题材和原型，忽略主角光环和歌舞外挂。
电影里用几个月赢来的胜利，现实里用了十年。
故事确实不错，各种有背后深意的镜头语言，要是歌舞再少点就更好了
真惨。不太想看下去。都知道是怎么回事了。整个村庄就好像原始人一样。
尽管我软弱凑合提不起个，但每每看到这种故事，整个人又都支愣起来了。追求正义的人那么耀眼！
印度政府虽然与我们水火不容，但是他们电影的优秀常常让我无地自容，电影的瑕疵就是结尾一个给了一个人正义，这个人却是个死人，活人却只有一个道歉，这也可能是创作组给我们深深的暗示。
