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.
剧本质量不错，表演只能说一般水准吧。换个牛逼导演，这片子应该会更好看。
《白宫风云》20年后，艾伦索金依然然激情。我被审判因为我带着思想穿州过府……
一场长达151天的审判，艾伦索金通过聚焦庭审过程的某些天将审判前的暴乱与庭审现场巧妙地结合在一起，清晰地展示出那一段历史。编剧出身的艾伦索金在片中依然是金句频出，尤其是艾比霍夫曼作为证人出场的那场戏，让我热泪盈眶做了好几次深呼吸，释放了之前观影过程中的为他们感到不平的委屈。之前看了黑豹党的一个纪录片，看完本片后找了找，好像被我删掉了。
最后的结案陈词说得人心沸腾，政府并不能代表国家本身，国家真正做主的应是人民本身。抛开电影回到反战这个点，美国人反战反的是他们的士兵与钱财在战争中受损而非战争的本身，这大家都知道的吧，毕竟“the whole world is watching”。
索金的剧本就不吹了，但他对于自己的剧本依然无法进行取舍，整部电影仍然是被剧本支配带着跑，铺陈满密集对白和庞大信息量的法庭辩论、会议演讲、示威游行以及纪录片段，没有给予片刻让观众停下来思考喘息，你知道它所批判所要表达的，但影片结束后并不会被感染不会被煽动不会去反思，这是电影技法和视听的失败不是剧本的。在看的时候一直会想要是大卫芬奇、贝尼特米勒或者原定的绿草或老斯来处理这个剧本会是什么样？
外国的月亮圆不圆也不好说，但是起码能把月亮给你看呀。
the whold world is watching！堪比当年看悲惨世界的 do you hear the people sing！但是，怀揣美国梦的爱国者们，我替你们的理想感到可惜，现实的灯塔国用过去这差不多一年的种种，彻底打脸了。左或者右，这是个永远无解的命题，但我相信，自由民主，始终会是对此有所追求的理想主义者们，心中的向往。
作为在沙漠里渴了很久的人，确实没办法再去挑剔一瓶水是否纯天然是否营养均衡。感受到的只有畅饮的爽快。
这世界上根本就没有所谓自由和自由的天堂 motherfucker
在这个时间点很难有什么东西让我对美国的未来重拾信心, 这部电影做到了.
期待错了方向，以为庭审是重点然而只是线索。耗时冗长甚至可笑的审判过程带出了事件的回顾，人物形象也建立得很好（主要是Sacha Baron Cohen）。戏里与当代的美国变得如此相像，但结局方向却很难猜测。
- 与我的政府对我的蔑视相比, 我的蔑视不值一提。
Be rational, be spiritual, be devoted, be strong, be inclusive, be righteous, be a man-- u see, the world is watching!!!
相当具有煽动性 看得一身鸡皮疙瘩 Aaron Sorkin用两部电影证明他不仅是个顶尖编剧 还是个极为优秀的导演 从「Molly’s Game」的传奇人物经历进化到本片激烈的民粹选题 每一场法庭戏的调度都极具水准 神速的剪辑也能给到观影者人文关怀 实在要挑刺是强大的剧作压缩了表演空间
发现我还是很吃索金的！灯塔坚持住啊别倒！！
感受到索金大神找到了自己的节奏，输出爆炸却张弛有度，内容多到这个地步却没有落入冗杂。撕开黑夜的人在结尾都渐渐露出了另一个自己，Tom的强硬、Abbie的肃然、David的挥拳、Schultz的敬意，只有傲慢与固执从一而终，永不变形。2020看起来很适合这部电影，50年后世界，侮辱与损害还在，壁垒与龌龊还在，硝烟与热血也还在。
剧本极好，好几处台词都如金石之音掷地有声，可惜索金的导演功力还是远逊于他的剧本功力，很多地方的力道没有完全发挥出来，芬奇/斯皮尔伯格来导的话，节奏和力度都会更准。小雀斑演一个尚有热血的建制左，表演分寸感极好。而关于题材本身，很多时候我并不认同白左的具体理念，但在每一次以卵击石的情境里，我都没有办法站在石头那边，不论左右，首先是人。眼泪为所有流血的人而流。（前不久恰好看完悲惨世界的影与剧，也有小雀斑，与本片恰可遥相呼应
开场叙事非常高效，虚实混合剪辑暴动也非常有震慑力。可惜索金的剧本影像化并不成功，自认为信息量巨大却让人抓不住重点，廉价的情绪渲染让人想起我不是药神，除了abbie以外的所有人都缺乏人物弧光，看完也无法引发任何共鸣。结尾仓促马虎偷换概念，最为败笔。
艾伦索金的法庭戏真的好看，把原来史上一笔糊涂账拍的条理清晰，电影和现实交替剪辑的抗议戏最为震撼，现实永远比电影最为刺激
“Do you have contempt for your government? (你是否蔑视你的政府)” - "It's nothing compared to the contempt my government has for me.(与我的政府对我的蔑视相比, 我的蔑视不值一提)” | 这个时间点上映真是太应景了，整个2020魔幻一年啊，如果当选最佳是不是也太表明奥斯卡态度了？虽然感觉奥斯卡也没在怕的。最后一幕太鸡血其实有点莫名。
