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.
看得要睡着了，没法聚焦。如果说出租车有着极强的隐喻和象征，那玩牌到底是在干嘛。。
满心期待想找，看下来跟扑克一点关系没有。 可能还是不够年纪看这种救赎的电影，压抑极了。
没想到是忏悔录 跟赌博其实没几毛钱关系 节奏是真的慢 剧情也是靠猜
又慢又平，或许结尾🈶惊喜，但现在看电影没人等到结尾。
7.5 导演拯救剧本。并非如通常般着重展现赌牌、监狱、报仇这样充满“男子气概”重头戏，转而聚焦情感的流动表达。
诡异迷幻的视觉风格，冰冷的超广角镜头，主角的呢喃，时而出现的呼吸声，一切都是那么的讨人喜欢，只是节奏慢的沉闷了。施拉德笔下的人物都是布满伤疤的，将镜头对准他们的时候就将是他们用得到的伤害去做同等的反击，完成自我的救赎
要说乏善可陈倒也不是，本片努力的在标榜我不是流水线爆米花，还夹杂了虐囚事件，PTSD等现实关怀，但是整体非常闷，看完也没有什么想回味的点，高不成低不就的样子（奥斯卡伊萨克太有型了）
救命 奥斯卡真的狠狠戳我xp😍😍谢谢老爷子 很好代真的 7.5 故事真是讲得不疾不徐啊
文本显而易见的脱胎于《出租车司机》，但老马丁slashing而富有delicacy的掌控力却是施拉德力所不及的。
想起了PTA的赌城纵横，故事简单却处处透着作者的气息。情节没那么复杂算计，也没有浮夸的爱恨纠葛，有的只是一个祈求宽恕的男人。最好的一点还在于不煽情。
可惜的是，畸变的画面将创伤展现得很好，理解和爱的说服力则没那么强。
监狱里用鱼眼表现是真压抑
又是布列松+救赎主题，施拉德好像一辈子都在拍一种电影。只是这种强烈的新教气质，真的不是我的菜

有當年看落日車神的觸動感，真男人的感覺。這部電影的影像語言讓我感覺他就是一部電影，影像克制但必要時直入心靈，編導演皆好，原本台灣的宣傳弄得像一部B級娛樂片似的，好險剛好趕上全台灣最後一場放映，幸福。
出租車司機變成了玩牌高手，失足少女變成了暴躁少年。主角對於救贖的認知和執行真是很上世紀的浪漫了。愛情線讓我滿頭問號。奧斯卡，好辣好辣。
老派的技法，正如老去的施拉德和他固执的布列松影像，影像成熟的让你会跟进，但是故事情节松散到我已经开始数我吃的葡萄有多少个籽以及这个葡萄籽放到枪里会不会打死人了。。。
“算牌人”的身份似乎并不重要，只是用来认识女主和快速筹钱的背景板。但这恰是全片最迷人的地方之一，我们等待男主一掷千金一夜暴富一雪前耻，我们等待牌局作为翻盘的机会，甚至我们就是在等待输或赢的结果。最后，轻飘飘的，他走了。
中段冗长而毫无调度的对话戏太多了，几乎毁灭掉了观感。其实亮点还是比较明显的，把一个高概念的娱乐性的元素解构成逃避内心阴影的手段，从算牌的桥段中得不到任何心理上的爽感，而唯一的释放恰恰是主角最终割弃牌桌直面痛苦完成自我的救赎。问题就在于后者也并没有处理得很好……
故作深沉，什么事情都没有讲好，ptsd，赌博，感情，犯罪，全都没有说清楚。
