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.
the whold world is watching！堪比当年看悲惨世界的 do you hear the people sing！但是，怀揣美国梦的爱国者们，我替你们的理想感到可惜，现实的灯塔国用过去这差不多一年的种种，彻底打脸了。左或者右，这是个永远无解的命题，但我相信，自由民主，始终会是对此有所追求的理想主义者们，心中的向往。
预料中的年度群戏。这角色也太适合Mark Rylance了，跟一群男子混在一起，可以发脾气，教训人，还有点神经兮兮的。
哈哈哈哈哈哈哈，对不起，我不该笑是嘛，恩？这不是荒诞现实主义喜剧嘛

法律是神圣的，并非其生而神圣，而是因为在制定与解读法律的过程中，会体现出人性中神圣的一面。
另外让我很不舒服的一点，这也许也是美国六十年代嬉皮士运动他们的局限性，追求反叛和自由的他们究竟是为了全人类的和平和爱，还是仅仅为了反叛父权，反叛父权代表的政府。究竟是为了越战牺牲的所有无辜的平民（无论是参战的士兵还是当地的百姓）还是为了自己和身边的人免受战争的征召，这种没有被逼到绝境的革命也许从开始就充满了软弱性。难以信服了。
小小的法庭，完整描绘了整个社会的撕裂感，老法官代表了极其迂腐傲慢的美国官僚制度，年轻一辈繁多的面孔都让人振奋不已。
美国的一些总统，一些议员，一些法官可能并非善茬，美国政府制定的外交政策也常常不符灯塔之名。但美国的宪政，民主，法治将会万古长青，美国的建国理念和国体原则将永垂不朽
这部片的剪辑和配乐绝对是我看过最强的之一。尤其剪辑，让此片的带感程度上升了好几个档次。有关内容，只能说观众以为自己在看电影时打开了上帝视角，其实那只是导演安在你身上的视角。现实生活中更是不存在上帝视角。所谓的“追查哪边先动手”，只是为了寻找个可以拿来定罪的细节而已。惟有反战，才是真正尊重生命的做法。
导演和编剧大写的厉害，这种高频对白的电影实际上非常不好处理。再加上巨星云集，真是太鸡血了！
"Inside the bar, it's like the '60s never happened. Outside the bar, the '60s were being performed for anyone who looked out of the window."
艾伦索金的台词像子弹，字字句句冲击到脑门。政局的荒唐、司法的不公正、流血冲突到底为了什么……一遍遍质问。当最终海登念出4572个牺牲在越战泥坑的士兵名字时，答案揭晓：就是为了最初的正义，反对战争，一切政治手段不该到良心面前扯浑水。

本片要抗争的东西我感觉离七君子原本的诉求还是有点区别的，他们原本的诉求是反越战，但是本片实际争取的是发声权、抗争的是政治打压。
给6星。今年白宫暴动又上演了。1.在麦卡锡出现前黑豹党没有被肃清时，也是难得一见的想要copy我们国家红色政权的革命组织。2.爆炸头其实非常聪明。3.居然看到了金斯伯格出境。青春期最喜欢他的诗《howl》了。4.美利坚想要缓和资本集团利益和无产阶级的矛盾，就对外发动战争，把无产阶级搞到前线去牺牲，然后抢夺来的利益部分分配给无产阶级以缓和阶级冲突遭到了强烈反抗。5.以列侬为反战斗士被枪杀落幕的时代。垮掉的一代。6.穷命贵。7.在西方的海洋强盗文化里永远找不到答案，在东方文化里有了回答。
电影表现方式能激荡人心。而故事本身再一次证明百无一用是书生，情绪不稳，易被煽动
喜欢小雀斑饰演的汤姆海登这个角色，有克制，有理智，有热血，有情义。
但尼克松连任说明了美国当时的真实情况
这种熟悉的密集对白节奏和爽感又回来了 是艾伦索金了
民主平衡政府，无论是以citizen assembly还是什么其他的形式，尤其是在恶人当政时
