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.
不得不说越来越多的印度电影和电视剧出现在我们的视角里了，有些电影真的值得我们导演和编剧学习。
剧本相当漫长，“部落民”的苦难怎么也讲不完，印度难以相信的落后和司法腐败。有许多问题，敢于表达是让人了解的最好办法，也是推动社会良知的关注力量。尽管有觉得庭战上正义的扬眉吐气过于理想化，但作为电影戏剧表达来看，实在是酣畅淋漓！
影片的现实意义非凡，几乎可以忽略其艺术性，不同地域、不同时代、不同环境，却能让大多数人感同身受，除了来自真实事件的震撼，本片主创人员的专业素养也扎实过硬，其实难的不是敢不敢拍，而是在一部电影的时间内让人产生共情。
真实事件改编？女主和人权律师都很了不起……
speechless... but there is hope and justice. ironically though, in blackwater, it takes years in a modern western world. and then there is also
很欣赏监察长这个体制内角色的刻画，
印度电影和韩国电影敢于刺破黑暗的这份勇，真的令人肃然起敬！
人性的公平和法律的公平是世界的希望！影片用力还是有点猛，和辩护人还有很大差距。敢于揭露黑暗的影片，以后也许只是奢望了。
我是快进看的，故事确实很针砭时弊了，但是情节推进太慢，时长太长，实在很难坚持看下来
制作上其实不算很精良
无论你是达利特还是婆罗门，在外界眼里都是阿三本三，没有任何区别。
如果没有人能够站出来，还会有千千万万个受害者，我们要勇敢地为底层人民发声，希望我们国家的法律法制能够更上一层楼。印度整个国家都是种姓制度无法改变，妇女更是生活在水深火热当中，悲哀！
将近三个小时，有些冗长了。电影本身拍的也就那样吧，分数有些虚高，印度底层贱民遭受种姓制度的荼毒之苦。只是敢于把家底里那些糟粕的社会顽疾一股脑的呈现给世人，就这一点勇气来讲，还是很值得肯定的。
罗马不是一日建成的，希望人类世界越来越好。
好人，坏人和法官都过于符号化，但至少这样的题材人家敢拍
如果法官也没有良知呢？每个国家都有垃圾，中国也不例外
重要的不是你有什么才能，多大的才能 而是你用你的才能用于何处
不要再叫阿三了，如果他们是，我们就是阿四了
有一种作品，看完之后让人久久不能平静，只是呆呆的愣在那里；一种伟大的力量注入灵魂。从各种方面来讲，观者被作品全面带领，进入一个更高的世界。这是一部伟大的作品，电影无比精彩，我看过的所有电影中最好的那样一种。不止电影，它所包含的内容太多了，没有一处是无用的。阶级；暴力；社会平等；马克思列宁；法律；良心；执法；种族……太多了。
印度分为4个种姓，婆罗门是原人的嘴、刹帝利是原人的双臂、吠舍是原人的大腿、首陀罗是原人的脚。前面3种是征服者雅利安族，他们肤色白，主要从事脑力劳动，是统治阶级，像影片中的高等法官、高级警察、政府律师，级别越高往往肤色越白。而最后一种是印度原住民、被统治者，肤色普遍较黑，他们主要从事体力劳动，为前面3个种族服务。还有20%的人是贱民，属于不可接触者，像拉贾坎努就是来自于伊鲁拉人部落，他们原来都是印度南方的原住民，肤色最黑，他们是社会最底层，被印度所有的种姓欺负。印度宪法之父比姆拉奥就是贱民，他终身反抗种姓制度，但有人扮演甘地、尼赫鲁，就是没有扮演他的。警察们为了结案，就故意抓无辜的贱民顶罪，钱德鲁一个人的力量毕竟是有限的，他无法推翻印度社会根深蒂固的种姓歧视。
