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.
这实际是一个关于救赎他人和自我救赎失败了的故事。男主是阿布格莱布监狱虐囚门事件的一名士兵，因为拍了虐囚自拍照，被判刑了，坐牢时自学成为赌神。出狱后成为职业赌徒，收益不错，但精神世界还在坐牢和赎罪，然后遇到了前战友的儿子，儿子一直想找虐囚的上司报仇，男主想帮助男孩精神解脱，最后给钱让其还债回归正常生活，没想到男孩去报仇还死了，男主放弃比赛亲自上阵杀了虐囚上司，然后报警坐牢。影片展现了战争，暴行&PTSD对美军及其家人的伤害，当男主以为自己及男孩获得了解脱的时候，却又发现自己已经无法摆脱心里的阴影，反而在牢里才能获得暂时的平静。这片子我不喜欢，我给3星6.3分，删掉了！
理解把Oscar拍得帅得没边了，但拿拍太空戏的劲儿拍小赌场牌桌和廉价霓虹灯花园是不是太过了，“他不仅又帅又神秘还很有深度，真的很深哦（配乐起）”，最后一幕做作到想掀桌。
不知为啥，我还蛮喜欢这部尴里尴尬的电影的。
问题应该有两点：一可能是制作成本上预算太低；二是施拉德导演天赋太差
Great story, 同时有一些让人毛骨悚然的细节(USA!)。质感层面实在太糟糕了，基本在保全故事角色和美学制作上只取其一，拜托谁去再给他点钱（和时间）吧！
2021第116部 根本根本根本看不下去😅
想赎罪，换个别的行业呗，选德州扑克干鸡毛啊！整那气场跟赌神似的，我TM人都码好了，你给我看这个。
讲自我救赎的公路片，男主角的人设细节设计的很好，剧情拍的太平淡了，观感有点闷
从头喊到尾的usa，最后监狱成为归宿，一边反思一边讽刺，像是没有力气了。
[2021.09.29 @K11AH] +，摄影、构图、色调都挺好的，剧本太弱了。
部分桥段的镜头处理跟《第一归正会》一毛一样，当然这部更无聊也更陈旧
极简调度带来的张力几乎只维持了开场的二十分钟，之后就全面崩塌。难以想象保罗施拉德这种级别的创作者会做出这等简陋的分镜，所谓奇观时刻不及琳恩拉姆塞的尾尘。政治议题的融合较之《第一归正会》更加生硬。年度最失望之一
往事虽然过去，但是记忆过不去;暴力已经成为往事，但是躯体里已然充满暴力，想要达到心理平衡是多么困难的事，打牌赌钱，奔波往来，都无济于事
又慢又平，或许结尾🈶惊喜，但现在看电影没人等到结尾。
奥斯卡太辣太帅了，剧情比较平淡，但是结局还不错
可能我对算牌也没啥兴趣
770｜不知为何，这种冷峻压抑的风格很吸引我。除去尴尬的情感线，这个故事是施拉德《出租车司机》《第一归正会》的延续，而算牌和白布等设定让整部电影更神秘，更迷人。别人不喜欢就算了，反正我很喜欢。

明知一副好牌却不屑一顾，不为赌，只为爱好，规则明确适时抽离。影片有一种孤勇的气质又不乏男性魅力，形式感强化，酷。
85/100 整部電影以牌局和復仇兩條簡單的線索同時推進，不過施拉德對兩者都進行了大篇幅的留白處理，我們既不明晰牌局的規則，也不清楚復仇的細節，更不知道用白床單籠罩整個房間的意義，換言之，我們是這部電影的旁觀者，只能遠遠地觀望，並非直接參與者。施拉德有意地簡化了過程（牌局的部分幾乎是符號化的），只向我們展示前因與後果，這種布列松式的抽離設計貫徹全片，給人的感覺如同男主的撲克臉那般沈著冷靜。男主無疑是在牌桌上振臂高呼的美利堅先生光鮮外表的反面，他的過往代表了美國最不堪入目的陰暗面，但真正有權勢的階層是無需上桌的，是隱身的，就像背後支持的金主與全身而退的上校，手上沾血的永遠不會是他們，抱屈含冤的永遠只會是我們，因此這也是一部關於剝削與被剝削者之間博弈的電影。
