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.
6.gogogo，早点搬家不就没事了，当然可能那小男孩的小女朋友就没法了，最后的告别还算好结局，爷爷死了，就就奶奶一个人在那儿
电影拍得不错。但就是一段个人的童年回忆，即使配乐美丽如斯，也无法共情。
看完感觉听辨爱尔兰口音的能力变强了。影片由多组日常生活片段构成，又不乏对北爱尔兰新教与天主教冲突的历史背景勾画，暴力与混乱被孩童的视角柔和，依赖门窗街巷自然形成的框架进行构图，体现对立与和解的关系。互文性作为点缀，将发生在他处的文化和故事穿插其中，比如电影中出现的几部电影、奶奶幻想中的香格里拉（还提到了《消失的地平线》）、小男孩看的阿加莎克里斯蒂等。有几处很动人的瞬间，最喜欢的是母亲气急败坏地拉着儿子把趁乱抢来的洗衣粉（？）送回商店，却恰巧被劫为人质的桥段，每一个转折都很精准。
1.作为对故乡的私人回忆，从孩童的角度以黑白影像展开，就差不把Rome的tag打在credit里了，可惜这两部电影在段位上没法比较。但是相比之下这部电影对于情怀可能更拿捏地到位，这也解释了影院里很多Old White ppl都非常沉浸 2.从六十年代末开始，北爱尔兰的暴力冲突问题就一直没有完全解决，直到98年，动荡年代里也贡献了很多流向外地/海外的migrants。电影approach了关于离开还是留下的dilemma,最后选择了从以小见大的家庭故事展示一个相对温暖的怀旧出口，可能最让人动容就是影片结尾的几行“献给”了 3. Judi Dench stole the show.如果没有她三星妥妥的，但是有她的scene都如同在发光一般，成为观影中印象最深刻的部分。
作为一个前不久刚读过《什么也别说》的人，我是能够理解导演在这样一个命题下所想要表达的一些东西的，也能够理解有一些问题现在仍不便提及。

蛮喜欢的一部作品，导演用充满幽默、感人和充满活力的视角，在动荡的北爱尔兰书写一出成长和情感，而黑白影像的处理让影片更具时代质感。每一个人心中都有一处属于自己故乡的地方和城市，致那些依然留在故土的人
“what do you want？” 爷爷那一段有点好哭。（3.5）
今天刚出炉的金球奖提名入围最佳影片导演男女配等6项大奖。"For the ones who stayed. For the ones who left. And for all the ones who were lost."最后结尾的这三句话让我鸡皮疙瘩一下子就起来了。这个电影的主题就是这三句的浓缩，贝尔法斯特是家乡，有留下的老人，伦敦是新世界，有前往的年轻人，离开和到达在那个年代不光是远距离的牵绊，更是感情的遥望。这是北爱的导演自己的一封家书，也是感情复杂的一封情书。男女配作为一线大牌的顶级超模双双入围金球奖最佳配角可喜可贺。
讲故事的方式和故事本身都中规中矩，一部传统而温柔的电影，四星。然后：作为一个不停地搬家的，习惯背井离乡的人，时而不时地被各种细节打动，加半星。片尾朱迪丹奇的大特写额外再加半星。（这是一条纯粹出于独断和偏见的短评）
黑白质感很棒，很多帧拿出来都是优秀人像照，但除此以外没看出一家人到底在struggle什么。
故事剧情有点普通，好喜欢爷爷奶奶的部分，最后一段太好哭了简直。一颗星给摄影，一直在猛截图
英伦三岛一直就不平静…屁大的地方，争来争去～配乐真是不错，黑白的太差劲

漂浮的情感，Too much songs。donan的男配Buzz我不懂。
影厅里时不时传出笑声｜妈妈好美｜影片播放之前看到Downton Abbey的预告片，本人作为Judi和Maggie奶奶的粉丝真是双厨狂喜（又想去再刷一遍《女爵印象》lol）
片中所寄予的乡愁在可说是虚无缥缈的典型。看似精致的背后，是空虚的内核。卖力的煽情也很难达到共情的效果无非感觉抓马罢了。
罗马拿奖才几年啊，就这么迫不及待地抄袭？布拉纳没有任何想法和深度，就靠糊成灰的黑白摄影，廉价笑话和毫无意义的长镜头给自己贴金
独属于导演的童年回忆，感觉肯尼斯·布拉纳希望像卡隆一样拍出一部属于自己的Roma，但各方面都与之相差甚远，不过胜在足够真诚。(里面小男孩看的是雷神的漫画，这个点就很私人了。
想起狗脸的岁月和昇哥的《美好的哲学课》
