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.
监狱闪回的痛苦 要"以你我的方式终结"拒绝了大男主路线
三星半，救赎情节类型电影，主角能玩牌的设定可以换成任何其他技能，身边的小兄弟几乎就是他内心的样子，在寻求复仇的同时完成自我救赎，失去了现在的一切却又拥有了全新的自己和感情，漂亮的完成了正面反讽主义的影片，伊萨克越来越像克鲁尼了
5/10给我这种观影体验的今年只有两部，一部是《算牌人》，一部是《热带往事》。自带一种迷人的氛围，但这种氛围究其根本却让人觉得冗长无比。影片有一股日式黑暗的氛围（导演曾拍摄过《三岛由纪夫传》），由一个糜烂的创口开始过往，一切如图鱼眼镜头般变形成不可逆转。扑克牌牵扯一种连锁反应，和故事形成轴转体系，但故事如此朴素真不应该。
他的这个造型真的有时候看着太奇怪了，感情线也很潦草，吻戏也要嘴角往下撇，像鲶鱼，哈哈哈。男二演的也不好。
两块磁铁没有吸到一起啊 因果殊途不能同归 奥斯卡还能接这样的片子？ 老马丁制片人也不行啊
男主演技相当不错，几乎一个人完成了一部电影，还能不分神的看完。只是以我的肤浅认识还是以失败而告终，不免充满遗憾。

我觉得把最后34分钟截掉，反而是个比较完整的故事～～
没懂到底想讲什么，Oscar真的好daddy🥰才反应过来这是Tye和Oscar第二次搭戏了吧，虽然天启里他俩都没怎么见过
非常内心的，情绪化的一部片，不论是回忆的镜头还是主角独处时的野兽的喘息，配乐，包括片的的明暗对比，都是主角内心感受的映照，把奥斯卡的娇憨去除得干干净净，全片弥漫着沉默的强大的苦痛的男性气质，却异常地单纯，当单纯和残忍结合的时候，人物是格外迷人的，就像《老无所依》里的巴登一样，只是这里的奥斯卡是善良的，所以只能表现痛苦。
各方面都干净克制，也就用这么点干净对抗肮脏了。监狱的单一生活，牌桌上的简单数字， 写日记的习惯……终究避无可避，如同主角的名字谐音“Will Tell”一样，真相在鱼眼镜头下扭曲的梦魇里窒息，年轻人的复仇被杀和主角的复仇都在画外，没有给观众一丝释放怜悯或者快感的机会，只留下五彩灯带里牵起的双手和隔着玻璃触碰的指尖。
本质上我觉得是过去创伤与自我救赎外加提了一下美军逼供，披了个打牌的皮。主人公很挣扎拧巴，看的我也很挣扎，在还可以-一般-其实还可以-真的一般之间来回挣扎。
【4】延续了《第一归正会》的观感和主题：过往伤痕、毁灭与自我救赎。片面地说风格像更迷幻的布列松。一些堪称“奇观”的调度太迷人了。
一个人，极其想远离过去，远离自己犯过的错，又希望做一些美好的事物来回报这个世界，但是事与愿违，最终还是逃不过命运的捉弄，而这个世界就是美国。主角在生活中，被美国的所谓反恐策略所利用又被抛弃，在赌桌上又被来自乌克兰的所谓“美国人”蚕食，下一代又被这个国家自己酝酿的仇恨所害……不过导演还是给了一段唯美的感情，没让观众一down到底。那场霓虹里的漫步和最后的隔屏对指还是能触动人的。
想看施拉德拍《出租车司机》……性冷淡的表演搭配性冷淡的配乐营造出一种虚无的迷幻气息，而先验性的影像恰让观众看到了布列松新世纪通过数字媒介所延续的一种可能。Oscar Isaac可以说是年度最迷人的男性银幕形象，在存在主义的救赎中竟创造了反传统的皈依，而罪恶永远无法抹除，在审讯的囚牢中我们仍旧看到收敛的刺激感以及来自地狱深渊凝望人性的恶魔
极简调度带来的张力几乎只维持了开场的二十分钟，之后就全面崩塌。难以想象保罗施拉德这种级别的创作者会做出这等简陋的分镜，所谓奇观时刻不及琳恩拉姆塞的尾尘。政治议题的融合较之《第一归正会》更加生硬。年度最失望之一
PTSD片….我以为是看打牌电影，结果？？？？？？
7分，无处排解的对过去的痛苦回忆，不同于出租车司机，这次有了明确的指向，关塔那摩虐囚事件，拍的犹如“亡命驾驶”一样逼格满满，难以移开视线；装扮成满身美国国旗的职业赌徒，每赢一次就大喊一声USA，而且一直在赢，滑稽的明喻。
7.5 lol Paul Schrader....
馬丁團隊的四不像劇作，似曾相識的專業賭戲+出租車司機翻版再翻版；編劇不適合當導演重要的事說三遍，被一幕幕“杯中酒”支配的感覺太詭異了…
