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.
反战思潮、嬉皮文化、五月风暴，那是“整个世界都进入了青春期”的六十年代。
那個時期青年反抗運動的訴求在於，不希望看到同胞們為了當政者的意識形態，而去參與一個不屬於公平正義、不屬於維護自己國家安全、不知為何而戰的戰爭行為，當然還有更重要的……Make Love Not War。
有民事诉讼，有刑事诉讼，这部片拍的是政治诉讼。片长两个小时出头的庭审片，艾伦索金拍得比很多片长一个半小时塞满打斗追逐枪战conspiracy 的惊悚片都精彩。我不明白大家所说的匠气是什么，我觉得这部片拍得太精致紧凑太有戏剧张力了，现实世界很难是这样的。尽管如此，仍是我今年以来看过最好的片。我喜欢这样多元的社会，希望生活在这样的社会，尽管这样的想法已经不合时宜。

如果你判决所有人的藐视，那只能说明你正在被判决
对话没有含金量，较量不精彩，制作水平中下，剧情拖沓。
又经过一场高信息密度台词的洗礼，开篇惊艳，叙事无闲笔，猪肚豹尾，还是熟悉的艾伦索金，谁能说不精彩呢。美国五六十年代波澜壮阔的民权运动，联想当下blm，fishingvilla，thailand的运动又多了很多分敬重，权力豢养出来的狗腿子哪儿都有，但那些勇于抗争又正直可敬的人民才是民族的希望啊
歷史的最大作用就是給人警醒，可惜人們擅長遺忘

“你们俩认识多久了？”
尤其当他最后扣上扣子起身致敬
求同存异，真的很美好
两个正面双男主都是英国人演的，这要放到中国不得被骂死。这类型的历史最好还是看纪录片。看完电影后在维基百科翻阅半个小时，得到的信息都比看这部电影多
恰逢美国政权交迭时来看这部电影真的是一种很奇妙的观影体验。艾伦的剧作相当扎实，有条不紊的理清了复杂的人物关系和历史背景，并将其紧凑成2个小时左右，最后在老道的交叉剪辑中一步步将剧情推向高潮。76
🐂🍺，有意思的是虽然最后他们被判了刑，但是这个刑的力量真是太弱了相较他们而言。法律仿佛成了一个被人操控的小丑，渺小的可怜。权利之人想展示他们的强权地位之力，却自损八千，着实可笑。
同时观《One Second》，为何不能让人们知道，我们也是一步一步艰难地走到现在。每一次思想的审判和前进的背后，都写满了人生的哀伤与无奈。而这些牺牲与进步，也符合事物发展的基本规律。不能给孩子们灌输一种价值观，让他们误以为我们美好的今天是躺着被恩赐的。

很符合艾伦·索金的风格，大段的对白和凌厉的剪辑，几乎不给观众喘息的机会，对于一部庭审戏占据大量篇幅的电影来说，这种风格非常适合。五个月，七个人的庭审，稍微处理不当就会显得极为混乱，但是艾伦·索金居然还在庭审中穿插了大量的前情介绍，而且也没有刻意去把案件中的一些噱头写进来，也没有去渲染情绪，这场庭审戏写的十分完美。不过剧本很好，但是拍的相对就差了一点，而且这么大的信息量拍成电影也确实有些难为导演
如果说在这个背离真实的年代，有何可称之为良心的话，我想那只能是过去的发生过的良心——也即这部电影里重述的故事。
艾伦索金式爽片是真的爽，爽到想再刷一遍news room。曾经的故事还在世界的大地上发生着，但好像这样的“反抗”越来越少。
