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.
本来还在琢磨为啥把背景铺垫得如此详尽，甚至到能说冗长的地步。突然灵光一闪—我看你个陀螺就是单纯想拍马戏团！(当然确实也很适合拍
“You don't fool people Stan, they fool themselves.”
关于怪物的养成和轮换，一切有为法，如梦幻泡影，如露亦如电，应作如是观。
前面讲Carny的部分好喜欢，用三十年代嘉年华做背景真的很棒，全程怀念【Carnivale】，后面么就。。。不过noir当代化反正也一直拍不好，因为本来就没有什么情节，那种特别的氛围感又很难现代化，虽然色彩布景服饰和女主角确实都很好看
大魔王演精明女就像汤姆汉克斯一样已经没有波澜了……
偽善未必不是一件好事，維持著天平脆弱的平衡，表演著對善良些微的敬意。但是，偽善不能真正解決問題，只是不斷堆高的河堤與河床，當洪水爆發時一切只會變得更糟糕，需要撕破偽裝讓邪惡張牙舞爪再次創造平衡，然後埋下更大的地雷，不過表面依舊優雅，當燈亮起，依然有人會起立鼓掌，下一次潰堤也安靜地開始進入倒計時。和《裡卡多一家》比起來，《好老闆》中的Javier Bardem才是當初令我折服的表演，演技之神又一次將光照向了他！
前面在嘉年华的部分特别喜欢，让我想起了当时看《巴斯特斯克鲁格斯的歌谣》的快乐。充满文艺色彩又满足猎奇。后半部分的故事逐渐拖沓，把时长拉到两个半小时，有点太长了。
原作看得我迷迷糊糊的，陀螺改编版人物造型更加多元，太适合我们脸盲患者了。geek形成了闭环，场景安排和光线色彩很有陀螺特色，但表演其实不及原作。
对不起，欧洲人对公平的追求超越了对效率的渴望。也有可能我被美式管理术PUA了。
6.5/10 两位女主全程没互动，这不是纯浪费卡司？
当酒精作为致命的药引勾连起geek和年迈的读心术表演者，你就知道库珀一定会继承他的命运并最终踏进混杂着鸡屎和猎奇目光的牢笼。绕是如此，看着他笑着喝下那杯配方自己也心知肚明的酒，依然感到被一种强烈的宿命的力量击中。
陀螺又把自己最喜欢的那些东西拍成了一部电影，但这个剧情确实差点意思。
就这？浪费了我宝贵的两个下半小时！就这么一个故事拖拖拉拉讲了这么久，节奏太差了，前一个小时令人昏昏欲睡，当然后面也没好到哪去，白瞎了这么多我喜欢的好演员
再次验证对陀螺的欣赏无能。只可惜了一票超级大牌。
好看但好老套，就和这个海报一样老套！这是21世纪的第2个十年了，我不想再看到一个乐色一样的人通过小聪明和野心走向高峰又跌回怪物的故事。
怎么说呢，陀螺拍非幻想类题材的电影的成功率与他能否克制住自己的恶趣味正相关。如果马戏团的部分稍稍克制些，成片会好很多。
为什么不是魔兔联手玩男人？不过那也不是什么新点子了。比如马特狄龙经验丰富，当年玩过也被玩过
前半段实在太过冗长了，以至于煎熬了一半的时间，剧情紧凑起来突然觉得轻快了。
中间确实有点冗长，但还是喜欢最后结构上的一个闭环
三星半。其实整体上还算有模有样，陀螺也很适合这种洞悉人心式的暗黑风格题材。前半段马戏团部分的美术风格也颇具观赏性。就是每次表演之后都自己揭秘，或者先说谜底后表演，这种感觉不那么ok.
