Trivia:
Still keen to feature the original Floris in this remake/spoof/sequel, the story was changed so that Michiel Huisman's Floris is now Rutger Hauer's grandson, enabling them to show Hauer in flashback footage from the original series. more

Not Flawless, Floris..., 7 March 2006
1/10
Author: boerelul from Netherlands

The biggest mistake was to make a brief reference to Floris-the-series by showing a 5 second BLACK and WHITE clip of Floris (Rutger Hauer)and his buddy Sindala. This ruined the whole movie, apart from what other IMDb-submitters have already written. The biggest blooper if you wish was the cheese-mill, in the middle of nowhere, full of cheese AND milk but with not a cow in sight. Mills were used for two things in Medieval Netherlands aka Holland: to pump water away and to grind wheat to make flour. Cheese was typically made in so-called cheese-farms, where you had the cows and hence the milk. This total utter stupidity to feature a cheese-MILL killed the movie for me. Add the reference to Marilyn Monroe singing 'Happy Birthday' to President Kennedy (A 'dragqueen' performing for the Duchess)and immediately all medieval aspects of the film ruined as well. I would also like to strongly criticize the film-makers for their reference to hemp-smoking (Pi (pronounced as (apologies) 'pee') who points this possibility with grass (marijuana) out to Floris already in the beginning of the film) and cruelty to animals (the killing of a rabbit by the Duchess of Gelre). The Dutch Film Board classified this film as '6', in other words suitable for year One Primary School children and up. A disgrace this film.
