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.
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。
勉强3星，片名和剧情本身并无太多关联，算是对体制黑洞以及战争创伤后遗症的反讽，节奏过于拖沓，想看到一场精彩的赌局，结果看了个寂寞。
Absolutely underrated. Dense and tense.
虐囚事件和赌台之间戏码该如何权衡，似乎大成问题。披着赌片外衣的犯罪片。关于21点游戏规则介绍很科普。
ᐈ住旅馆，将房间内所有的东西都套上自己准备的白色套子，重度洁癖
这片子最先吸引我注意的竟然不是故事也不是迷人的镜头，而是音响设计。这沉闷、抑郁又孤独的音响实在太配这个故事了。
十分政治正确的老美电影，节奏表演本子都过得去，也是许瑞德正常发挥，但就是不喜欢…
一个比较好的题材被导演和编剧毁得只剩形式不见高潮与转折 旧时的伤痛没说好 打扑克也没讲到点子上 两相不连贯 结果平淡得有如催眠
比《第一歸正會》難看不少。尋求救贖的男人總喜歡在一塵不染的房間裡頭寫字自省哦！可真把WSOP拍得毫無競技性可言。那個USA真是牌技高超的白男沙雕，演員搭配和表演調度看得怪尷尬的。這片子各方面都人工且直白，賭場裝潢不洋氣，但電影不能這麼不講究的吧。
身体，灵魂，自我折磨（内疚、苦行、救赎...)，以及美国人的身份和对布列松的热爱：施拉德总在书写具有相似度的人物。美国先生几乎要立刻掌握了最高财富，在一个后911（居然在20周年的时候上映）、后伊拉克的时代，美国人将投入多少筹码到自己的国家？又或是伤害自己作为向国家的报复，酒店或许只是自我流放之地，获得救赎的概率微乎其微，去除了上一部的那些宗教因素，宗教之外的症结在哪？在最后，救赎只会以爱的形式出现，隔着监狱的两只手，在静态平面中身体在连续运动中暂停，这《创世纪》一般的姿势将某种自我意识神话化，试图集中所有唤起一些力量。在此之前的人物只是不会带来浸入感的空的容器，当然也是一种“布列松式的紧缩”—已经没人像这样拍电影了—如艾萨克工整清晰、纪律严明的手写文字，看上去没什么稀奇的也看似已经过时了。
很温柔的一种拍法，牌桌与现实并行的剧作结构，围绕压力转移的概念，战争创伤另辟蹊径的表达，把一场十分温情的戏放在一个看似五彩斑斓但是冷冰冰的数字化景观中，也无异于男主色调单一的世界。扭曲或者间隔暴力场面，遭遇无法被重现，置于现场才会真正理解，是电影永远无法抵达的地方。牌算得再好，人也拗不过情绪。只是觉得爱情戏过于跳脱
算牌只是份技能，但电影更多讲的是沉浸过去的痛苦回忆，复仇和救赎。
这电影的配乐看似和算牌不搭，却又带来一种恰到好处的美与伤感
确实不是我喜欢的类型，还挺斯科塞斯的。最后高潮没推起来，男主以为自己被救赎了那里跟小孩一样表演出问题了
6.9分左右。
不要被片名骗了，只是个复仇的故事，还是为别人复仇的故事。
优点和缺点都很明显的一部片子：从视听上讲，艺术程度不低，冷峻和疏离感塑造得很好；从剧情上讲，剧本实在不敢恭维，节奏也很拖沓。不过，奥斯卡在这部片子里也太辣了点，一头灰发冷着脸大吼着把男二推在床上那段我整个人都精神了。
在这个年代看到这种风格的片子，让人感动，节奏缓慢，却又娓娓道来，会讲故事的人，什么时候都可以讲好一个逼近真实的故事。
《第一归正会》中的喻体：环保议题本身与救赎主题无关，因此处理得游离且荒诞，拓展出黑色幽默式的修辞；这一部里的喻体其实就是赌牌，它仍然浮于主题的表面，却被刻画得抒情又板正，最终甚至导致了电影情境的崩盘——建议把《出租车司机》忘了吧！
