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.
感动哭。心流与迷失的灵魂。人生最重要的是经历。
一碗新意满满的鸡汤，看似俗套但内涵非常成人向。本片颇具哲学意义，皮克斯用天才的想象力进行了一场灵魂与肉体的思考。
Try hard to find your spark/ocean in your life。
不记得哪一刻开始眼泪就止不住的流，就是会有一个点触动到你，人来到这个世界上太不容易，活着也不容易。值得二刷。
刚来日本头两年，我就像是“游魂”，我也不知道自己在干嘛，拼命找所谓的“人生目标”。
我也不知道我为什么就哭了，但我宣布皮克斯是全世界最伟大的动画公司，55555555555太好看了。
人生是一场旅行，精彩的是旅途的经历，而非最终的抵达。
「劳力是无止境，活着多好不需要靠物证」「风花雪月不肯等人，要献便献吻」太会讲道理了。
这部电影着重于两个主角的内心成长，其他人物都是工具人(o_ _)ﾉ
我只想看个2d，国内何必执着于非排3d不可？连晴雅集都不玩3d了，强行3d有意思？不是中国观众水平不行，而是利益操纵实在恶心
“那不是目标，那只是正常的生活。”
皮克斯的审美和技术无需讳言，开头那段生死之交的量子空间的视觉呈现非常棒，可惜有点短，回到现世之后就普通多了。成片的评价最终还是归于主旨和立意——比《头脑特工队》稍弱，比《寻梦环游记》强太多，依然还是立足于与自我的和解，从成功学、社会达尔文和黑暗森林理论里解脱出来，享受生命中闪光的喜怒哀乐与回忆，才真的不枉来人世走一遭啊。四星。
以及。生活，永远的生活。
用这部电影来给2020年收个尾着实恰当。过度执着于某一个目标，却也容易在过程中忽视日常的细微的美好。虽然剧情一下子就都被猜中了，但仍不失为走心的心灵鸡汤。没猜中的是，我以为主角（们）将找到的是成为导师/教师的幸福因而决定从教，而这恰恰是我自己的“目标”所形成的“盲区”，当然也更是我自己的体悟。
“The ocean? That's what you are in right now."
它说的不是拥抱平庸的生活，而是寻找生活的意义而非目的。拥抱日常点滴只是22号的火花，而主角的火花就是音乐，也就是他人生的意义。女爵士手说的故事的意思也是人要活在意义里而非目的中，不然只有实现目标后的虚无
瞎逛的时候一时兴起看的，比想象中好，前面说人要有目标，不能平庸地活着，然后引申出生命意义的问题，最终答案是类似存在主义的说法，去体验存在本身就好，强调活在当下，这是一种颇为佛系的心态，在精英化的社会主流价值观下比较让人放松。如果生命中的痛苦和焦虑不能带来更深层的意义，的确容易产生精神危机，我相信人在一定程度上可以选择自己的生活，也必然在整体上获得微妙的平衡，但最终，生命这条河得在洪流中趟过才行。配乐不错，结尾强行给男主续命扣分，如果进入光芒接受命运，这故事就没得挑了，不想太挑剔，瑕不掩瑜了。
和我的人生态度不谋而合，以至于觉得并没有什么惊喜。活在此刻，carpe diem.
哭成烧饼。短暂的治愈也是治愈。短暂的逃离也是逃离。
主角Joe的父亲名字叫Ray是不是致敬杰米福克斯自己的《灵魂歌王》？纽约尼克斯数十年如一日地躺枪。
