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.
7/10。私心喜欢这部多于同为金马最佳影片的导演前作《阳光普照》，华语影坛有了自己的疫情电影。日常惊悚化处理偷师不少黑泽清吧，但仍带有杨德昌之后台湾电影的温情。“瀑布”比喻家道中落，The Falls与fall，狡黠直白也有命题作文之嫌，尤其是结尾扣题的突发洪水，但我就莫名爱它的任性，同理那条真实出现在电视机后面的蛇。蓝色布幕太像《蓝》了，而贾静雯比不上朱丽叶·比诺什。“不要一直问我你还好吗？”
最近的确流了太多眼泪了，谢谢钟孟宏，谢谢电影。我也相信阳光会再照进来，糟糕的抑郁会过去，然后不时会再下起雨。晴晴雨雨的，人生就是这么一回事。
摄影还是台湾最强，但拍女性人物总觉得抓不到痛点，或者说，痛苦仍流于形式。不知道是表演的原因还是剧作的关系。
放在钟孟宏电影序列里不算出色，但当成一部疫情电影看，相当别致。
don't sweat it.everything will be fine.新年看这一部，很棒！
黄信尧和刘冠廷的串场很不错。
和《阳光普照》同样描摹家庭内部的矛盾、裂痕，疫情题材只是外壳，母女俩由隔绝到治愈的轨迹脉络才是真正的表达所在。片中的不少隐喻值得玩味，结尾贾静雯的表演令人叹服。
看完后，陷入一种哀沉的心绪之中。全片是一个拯救的过程，母亲在精神世界里“溺水”了，女儿跳下去费心费力地拯救她，好不容易把她托出了水面，女儿自己却真的溺水了，可以想象得到母亲最后彻底坠入黑洞中。贾静雯真不错，很有质感的表演。饰演女儿的王净有一段我以为是徐娇。
中国好同事推荐，还硬说生活就是这个样子的
由疫情带来的经济危机是整部电影的背景，所有人都陷入一种离轨的困境，精神的失常与世界失序是交替行进的，但是路数有些老套。后半段渐入佳境，特别电视之后真的有蛇这一下很妙。
电影的文本意向是很深厚的，但是感觉有点造成叙事的轻微断裂感！ 视角难得放置在女性身份上，也是不错的片子！
比阳光普照要散太多，魏如萱的情节完全败笔，配乐还是林生祥的风格，但没有他老辣贴合。但我个人要更喜欢，女人总是让我流泪。
我从小到大每次发烧的时候都会做同样一个梦，梦里的世界是暗红色的，头顶会有几乎看不到边际的巨物降下，伴随着低沉的压迫的嗓音。今天我总算知道那个噪音是什么了，瀑布的声音。
很喜欢王净，演的好。她怎么那么像年轻时的范晓萱……钟孟宏的作品，每次都有暗涌，这次变成明浪，直击感官！ 疫情下的病态躯壳，家庭缩影的生活压迫。在挣扎中喘息，总要乐观的活着……责任与爱也许真就是“他只是一个提供精子的男人”。对于女性很多时刻终归是宿命。人总需要喘息的出口，对于母亲角色，女儿就是出口，还好这出口是“通”的。 当灵魂被肆虐，大浪会冲走一切，水壶总会浇息燃气……自然会冲破一切，人却总会隐忍。这也是宿命！
经过了一些撕裂与阵痛，过去的生活被断然切割，但是新的生活还在继续，“重要的不是痊愈，而是带病生存。”
我很喜欢。无论是表演，内容，抑或是剧情，和温吞的节奏。
我感覺這絕不是鍾孟宏特別好的一部，但是鍾孟宏開竅的一部，雖然前後斷裂，導演跟編劇還是有點分離，但我覺得以前一直覺得鍾孟宏空空的地方，開始被填滿，他往另一階段去了。而在觀影過程中，也不無聊，演員與攝影俱佳。
关于主题的阐述，还是有些不明确了。尤其最后那场戏。到底要展现什么呢。他们凭借什么，在这场瀑布/洪水中活了下来？仿佛是因为运气。
喜欢瀑布这个意象，且好喜欢电影里有人唱了蔡琴的歌：“也许雨一停我就能再见到你，也许雨该一直下不停。”
片子还是有些刻意，最大的收获是听到了《抉择》。“偶尔飘来一阵雨，点点洒落了满地”。真好听。今天听了一整天蔡琴阿姨。
