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.
很好看，演员的气质和表演把一个快要分崩离析的家庭矛盾演绎的绝妙，叛逆期的女儿，心理素质面临崩溃的癌症妈妈，隐忍负担的爸爸，天真无邪的妹妹，加上海外归国的各种格格不入，文本囊括了时代和人生的诸多变故，每一位都承载着变故后带来的压力，拥堵和夹杂在这个几近破碎的家庭里，充斥着火焰般的张力，与焦灼又力不从心的悲伤。镜头借姐姐的成长来见证家庭关系的升华，用妹妹的大病初愈来给予重生的希望，爱与恨的一体两面，都在文本中开了花，才让这个故事处处充满力量。★★★★
很好理解的小故事，说不出哪里好，但看完的确会被感动。
背景和故事内容相似，却比瀑布流畅太多了。结尾仓促了些。
关于成长阵痛、中美文化身份认同、中式家庭关系之中矛盾与爱的无解，剧作处理其实有些浅了。整部想讲的事情杨德昌在《青梅竹马》已给出了答案：美国也不是万灵丹，跟结婚一样，只是短暂的希望，让你以为一切可以重新开始的一种幻觉。
1、中美文化冲突的部分，有几处确实挺锋利的。妈妈说“我把你们送到美国是想让你们更好”，而女儿却说“更好就是不一样”。很长一段时间以来，我们都坚信“外来文化”的魅力，但出国潮，留学热褪去后，我们才发现，不管是先进还是落后，大家在人类发展本质这件事上，似乎没有太大区别。而且，说实话，我们急于摒弃的未必就是坏，急于拥抱的也未必就是好，任何事物都有两面性。2 、家庭冲突的戏份不够细腻，使得这个原本特殊的家庭，不够落地。主角人物的语言和行事没有逻辑性，不能引起共鸣。3，制作粗糙，疫情下的《倾城之恋》，功力不及《倾城之恋》十分之一功力。疫情电影，没能完成成拯救家庭的任务。
生活啊，总是容易以爱的名义错过着
情绪很重也很实，不知不觉就进入到这个家庭里了
5.0/10.0。浅尝辄止，我觉得这部电影是拍给青春期少年看的。
有一些压抑和不认同 仿佛是人为的 好在演员可爱啊
感觉讲了好多，回过头看又什么也没讲。如果电影和生活一样，那谁还会想去看电影呀，过生活就好啦。
女儿芳婷最恨母亲之处，不是母亲一厢情愿地把还在进行文化认同阶段的她带到美国，而后又不由分说地被现实击败，把她拽回母语之地任由适应，而是母亲不肯好好活着，母亲就要死了，恨一个人总比爱一个人容易。
家不是总围绕着爱展开，爱与恨是一体两面的存在，时恨时爱。导演的细腻深入家里的每一处，妈妈的悲观脆弱把家庭搅成一锅乱粥，在移民的文化背景下大女儿的水土不服再添加一把火，生活不断下坠，下坠的过程让彼此才能联结的更深。
Lady Bird讲，love and attention或许是一回事；“如果这已经是最好的我了呢？”
可以说十分的细腻了，不煽情的情况下把家庭成员之间的情感关系描绘的这么有看头，有矛盾有对立，也是彼此相爱的
点开拖进度条看了两眼，受不了：1.林嘉欣气若游丝躺在病床上问老公要不要买房（what？你们没买房就生了2个小孩？）；2.老公给小孩煮饭，小孩嫌难吃，老公生气——真的是烦死这种无能爹了，2022年了ball ball各位导演不要再描述男的的无能了，非要写的话请把他们统统写死
视听普通。故事其实并不复杂，但也没有交代清楚。零星几场戏的细节还可以看，但整体故事起落就是莫名其妙。
7.9，抑郁心情不好可能是因为家里光线不好。这个屋子里幽暗潮湿，重新装修一下房子换个心情会好些的
第3452-影片可看，演员表现都不错。
叛逆期的孩子，环境改变后无法融入新的地方。与母亲的别扭和冲突只有等着长大才发现自己的任性不懂事。
爸爸辛苦养家，妈妈得了癌症，女儿想回美国，一家人似乎永远处在“一切人对一切人”的“战争状态”中。在一个四口之家，生动地上演了一场有关代际冲突与文化隔阂的家庭战争。最为悲哀的是，其实互相都是有爱的，只不过以争吵的形式不适当地表达了出来。
