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.
不愧是巴尔扎克超越时代的作品，电影的改编使其对新闻界的批评更为集中化。在这个网红遍地，附庸风雅，趋炎附势，理想幻灭的世界里，如今依旧有现实意义。
小说牛逼，男主演也牛逼！完全符合我对吕西安的想象。巴尔扎克真是看透了这个世界。
人类需要思考，大清都亡了百年，为啥还是会跪舔！因为大多数人仍然向往那些不劳而获的权利！
“一切有为法,如梦幻泡影,如露亦如电,当作如是观”
三点五星 肯定不难看 风格画面都很好 但也没啥太大惊喜 整个剧情太俗套了 每个人物的表现都可以在无数西部片或者动作片中找到
好看！虽然导演用了太多旁白有偷懒之嫌，但巴尔扎克的作品改编成电影可太优秀了！男演员也很厉害！
过山车的经历…来回摇摆，树敌太多，也算精彩过
人们都在追求着心中的美好，但太多的美丽事物只是丑陋的外套。
了不起的巴尔扎克，关于新闻的讽刺太应景了。本片也精心制作，不辜负名著。
很久没有看到过经典文学名著改编的新电影了，改编自法国作家巴尔扎克的同名小说，今年凯撒奖最佳影片，拍得即古典优雅又现代意识流，非常值得观看！
剧作干净的没有一点多余的水分 即使很早猜到结局也会很耐心的看下去 节奏和视听语言都很不错
“一切有为法,如梦幻泡影,如露亦如电,当作如是观”
剧本真的很老套，塑造主角从籍籍无名到声名显赫以至于最后众叛亲离的幻灭过程，背景和目光聚焦于党派争斗，在上层人士的翻云覆雨里，政治与媒体，不过是狼狈为奸的手段罢了
巴黎是流动的盛宴 这部电影就是盛宴的终末 揭示了浮华下的虚伪与残酷 他的品质，梦想，本性以及自我随着时间一起幻灭 整个地球就是一个牢笼 巴黎或许是枷锁最繁琐也最缥缈的一座
电影中的点睛之笔多来源于旁白，因为那是文豪巴尔扎克写就的。场景精美严整，演员表演也各安其分，就仿佛是一场精雕细琢的歌剧。主角的行为动作总是慢慢的，初期在乡间自矜于贵族血统的舒慢，进城后极力模仿和融入大贵族们的怯慢，投入名利场后放浪形骸的迟慢，万事皆空爱人死去后的痴慢。就算他最后走入湖中，泪也是慢慢的染开，水波也是慢慢的散开。卢西安就是这么慢半拍的度过他激荡的青年时代，也与他想要的东西都曾只差一步之遥，无论是爱、头衔或永恒的文学，而他最终“不再期待，开始生活”。巴尔扎尔人生中一定见过至少一个卢西安，而巴黎造就了很多卢西安，因为每个人都可能是卢西安。
不知天高地厚的年轻人闯巴黎，旁白很多，没有吸引人的演员，服装有质感。看了45分钟。
他是富于诗意的人，可不是诗人。他只管做梦，不肯思考。只忙乱，不创造。
好多熟面孔，包括été 85的男主。故事没有太多新意，但相关的历史背景还是蛮有意思的。
当时的法国社会是分层的，年轻人有光明而无前途，悲剧收场
原作有两个主角，电影砍掉了其中一个，只聚焦另一个，或许是出于篇幅的考虑，但也让思想性削弱了很多。作为名著改编，在影像上几乎没有什么令人惊艳的段落，而且大段的旁白让影片看上去又很像超长版的故事梗概。最大的价值大概是还算可以吸引观众去阅读原著吧。
