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.
现实中依旧乡贤横行办事靠钱。。。
非常赞同一个哥们的回复，一个蛆爬出来说大家都在粪坑里，恰恰表明大家确实都在粪坑里
看完本片，不由得对坚持正义的律师心生敬佩。每一个国家，都需要这样的人，为手无寸铁的民众举起对抗部分邪恶公权力的法律武器。
片里那种宏大bgm的半喜剧效果真的产生奇异的效果。我们对这种黑暗习以为常，对希望却表现出各种不适应
一个90年代发生在泰米尔纳的邦真实案件，从中几乎可以看到所有印度社会顽疾的展现：警察的权力不受监管，警察“遭遇”行为成为常态；种姓制度根深蒂固，不可接触者住在村庄边缘，他们甚至都不允许走入村庄中，在盗窃案件发生后却成为了最先被怀疑的人；身份政治主导民主自由，没有身份就不是选民，政治人物都不会来理睬你，原住民的权利缺乏保障，他们得不到公平的对待，还要被抓去给有钱人顶罪，代替他们坐牢，电影聚焦了90年代中期南印度各种政治势力的争夺，农村成为了一地鸡毛的战场，电影中多次出现的歌舞场景是原住民们日常生活、劳动的画面，配上欢乐的音乐和美丽的风景，在这些美好之下却隐藏着危机，警察的邪恶是如此令人发指，他们成为了自身利益与权力机器勾结的怪物，用泯灭人性的手段来掩饰犯罪，律师形象也非常生动
对标《辩护人》足以说明本片的优秀，在这种着重体现底层疾苦，展现个人对抗体制的电影，印度这方面属实有些技艺。当然了，对于细节推理这些展现，就确实有些牵强了。尤其到最后的判决戏份，猛然间出现的侦破证据，就会显得比较啰嗦，和画面上的多余。因此我是觉得，电影可以稍微删减点，把重点全部放在体制对抗上，少点悬疑——尤其是这点悬疑早就埋不进观众眼里的时候。
【7.0】豆瓣评分老毛病，题材好＝满分。印度电影通病，用大量洗脑神曲配合琐碎剪辑来交代故事进展，严重影响叙事节奏。所有表达都用最直白肤浅的方式呈现。讲的是低种姓人群对抗警察的故事，但表现警察凶恶的方式只是刻意拖长的刑讯场面和受害人的哀嚎。每到展现主角和女配正义光环的时候就是慢镜头+配乐，有点尴尬。辣椒粉的线索挺重要，但先期药店和诊所不在一个方向、谎报打电话的时间的伎俩太愚蠢了，完全显示不到律师的能力，只能看到他的意志和敌人的蹩脚。中间的转折也很突兀，扫盲课老师和农家妇女一样无知吗？明知道受害人不可能打电话为何不在第一次庭审后直接告诉律师？非要刻意制造本不存在的困难吗？是用笨拙技法拍出的有一点社会意义的故事，仅此而已。
印度版的辩护人。很有力量的一部电影，讲述为了底层人民的正义和公平而反抗压迫。另外，印度好像可以随便游行抗议，而且是可以挥着共产党旗抗议的啊……
律师还点兼侦探...
走投无路的小民，在正义律师的帮助上走上维权之路。
这部片子和孟买酒店深刻让我认识到了印度警察。种姓、母性、人性。
这是真实事件改编吗？前半段真的太绝望了，钱德鲁正义之光。
豆瓣评分虚高的片子里很多都符合几大因素：外国片，鸡汤多，少数群体，白左等 占两个就可以无脑五星。
最近平顶山刘玉琨事件。。。痛心
为低种姓穷苦人伸张正义的真实事件，很感慨，人类和世界纵然有很多的黑暗，但仍因有他们和他们所争得的正义而值得热爱。同样学法律出身的我很惭愧。
律师真是一个神圣的职业。尤其是那些为底层人民摆脱冤狱，痛苦的律师。无论哪个国家，无论案件大小，都值得大家的敬佩。
其实我们也能拍出这样的电影 只是没人敢拍也没人敢过审
7/10
不受约束的公权，因傲慢而愚蠢，因愚蠢而傲慢。
半夜本打算分两天看完的，但剧情还是吸引了我看到结束。虽然还是避免不了一些印度电影的通病，无法融入剧情的歌舞之类的，可整部电影带给人的只有震撼。受害者妻子的塑造我非常喜欢，坚强的女人虽然贫穷但坚守信念。
