Set to broadcast in two one-hour films, this family treat is inspired by the classic books of Barbara Euphan Todd and is pegged to be the TV event of the season. Mackenzie Crook has taken Scatterbrook farm and the infamous characters of this well-loved tale and injected them with a tender and authentic charm. This is the perfect family adventure, packed with a fun, mischievous spirit and delivered with an environmental message.
Mackenzie Crook, (Pirates Of The Caribbean, Detectorists) who has written, directed and stars as Worzel Gummidge, has gathered a host of both accomplished and brilliant actors who are set to appear in this eagerly anticipated adaptation.
Playing The Green Man, creator of the scarecrows, who arrives to Scatterbrook in episode two, is comedy legend Sir Michael Palin. He says: “It’s a lovely part for me, but the whole script is very memorable and touching, and very funny too. It quite skillfully weaves in something for everybody all the time.”
Zoë Wanamaker (My Family, Harry Potter And The Philosophers Stone) will play the eccentric local aristocrat, Lady Bloomsbury Barton in episode two. She says: “The whole thing is so charming and inventive. It’s the sort of thing I’d watch. I’m sure it will be a huge success. I know it will - it’s divine.”
Vicki Pepperdine (Getting On, The Windsors) takes on the role of the formidable Aunt Sally in episode one. She says: “There’s something for everybody. It’s got this heart to it, and you’d be hard pushed as an adult not to engage with it.”
Steve Pemberton (League Of Gentleman, Benidorm) will play Mr Braithwaite, the farmer. He says: “This is the kind of show the whole family can enjoy together. It has a lot of humour, a lot of visual humour too, and I think kids will enjoy watching the children being central to the story.”
Rosie Cavaliero (Gentleman Jack, Cleaning Up) will play Mrs Braithwaite, she added: “It’s a story about the imagination, and children escaping into this different world. Mackenzie’s version is totally contemporary.”
Ones to watch India Brown (Hetty Feather) and Thierry Wickens (making his TV debut) will play Susan and John, two city children spending their summer at Scatterbrook farm who quickly befriend Worzel and begin a summer of adventures.
The first episode, The Scarecrow Of Scatterbrook, sees two young strangers arrive in the village of Scatterbrook. It’s not long before Susan and John encounter Worzel Gummidge, the Scarecrow of Ten Acre Field. Their world is sent spinning into confusion when they realise Gummidge comes to life. The only person more shocked is Worzel, when he discovers that the children are not in fact fellow scarecrows but humans.
Their worlds should never commune but fate has conspired to create an extraordinary union. The seasons have stopped and the harvest hasn’t arrived. The rhythm of the natural world is out of kilter and this unlikely trio must try to put it right. Magic, mystery and mayhem unfurl.
The second episode, The Green Man, welcomes another mysterious arrival to Scatterbrook. The Green Man is the creator of scarecrows and keeper of scarecrow lore. He isn’t at all happy that Worzel is consorting with humans. Elsewhere, local aristocrat Lady Bloomsbury Barton is holding a fete, with a Scarecrow competition that Worzel is determined to win. What will The Green Man and Worzel's most competitive rival, Soggy Bogart make of it all?
Worzel Gummidge is written and directed by Mackenzie Crook and is a Leopard Pictures, Treasure Trove Productions and Lola Entertainment production for BBC One. It is Executive Produced by Kristian Smith for Leopard Pictures, Lisa Thomas for Lola Entertainment, Mackenzie Crook for Treasure Trove Productions, with rights holders Patrick D. Pidgeon and Eric S. Rollman executive producers for Pidgeon Entertainment, Inc. It is produced by Georgie Fallon and Alex Moody is the Commissioning Editor for the BBC.

Thanos did nothing wrong...漫威的题材走向或许映射了现实世界里人类从科技和 AI 的恐惧演化为对灭绝的恐惧吧。无论是否有这个企图，片子点到了一些存在主义和人口伦理，甚至还有近年越发受争议的 longtermism。这么多沉重的话题本可以严肃地说，却被强加的难笑的片段冲淡了。许多陈旧的设定让习惯于美漫题材的观众觉得几乎没有什么惊喜。最惊讶的反而是在卡司里见到了比尔弟弟。请好莱坞放过他，不要让他和 Andy Serkis 抢饭碗了。
看睡了……………golden experience？？
当神话故事来看还蛮有那个意思的。那些金色的线条流畅优美，最后片尾将它们与那些古文明的壁画雕刻的线条重合的时候就很divine. 这几位角色可以说每个人都顾及到了。看预告还以为朱莉的角色Thena至少是个领袖之类的吧，原来她这么神游这么可爱呐，and she is the best just love her. Ramin Djawadi的配乐和这金色阳光沙漠的画面搭配起来很妙。The truth will set them free. Free to choose. Free to know other path.
3.5。1.宏大的摄影完全可以撑得住主题表达，是毁灭一个种族去制造新生，还是进最大的努力保护种族？是破坏自然的更替规律，还是人工干涉破坏规律？无奈的是故事拉胯，完全的内讧编得如此小家子气。2.永恒族各个角色都没有落成弧光，朱莉、马东锡等等完全是用来打酱油。3.彩蛋1是灭霸弟弟来复仇，彩蛋2是《刀锋战士》，或许值得期待。
是真的看不下去，整套设定实在太楞太der了，就您这姿势水平就先别搞什么人类文明巡礼了。还有这套选角也是绝，永恒族就这么几个人，男女弯直、高矮胖瘦、各种肤色一应俱全，还有位聋哑人。。。大数据算都算不到这么全乎。另外这片子拍砸了然后ZT长ZT短的其实属于跑偏了，如果一定要给她分一口锅，那她最大的过错在于不该这么轻易上了漫威的船。
这真的是muti-culture梗片啊！迪士尼故意选了基特哈灵顿来报复华纳HBO的吧！囧know nothing和rob一起和瑟曦谈恋爱，囧还有复杂家族史，你那剑不是铁王座烧化之前偷摸拽出来的？囧一句i love you cersi真够恐怖！小孩开头上课就狼狮子的，还有拉民的配乐，权游还没完然后就直接肝DC了够直接！全片世界各大文明历史风情全领略一番，还不忘来一个讲阿拉伯语的boyfriend可以啊！结尾再用西游记穿起来，就文化大融合了呗，哦对还有大洋里石像提亚穆特好像变5沙漠里传输一半的赛博坦，正好还有嘉玛陈！就把这部当梗片看还能增加点乐趣吧！整体就是个纯纯的ppt元素堆砌，各种正确大集合，白男就必反派，不该正确的瞎正确，该正确的...连老美一起得罪，最后说一句，插曲品味太差了，而且不搭！
ps.对比一下亨利·卡维尔的超人和伊卡洛斯，md你就知道扎导对于绝对力量的视觉呈现有多牛逼了，不用多看，就起飞一个动作就相差十万八千里。。。
抛开文本，画面的塑造还是很棒的。一种全新的视觉风格有意凸显与以往角色的不同。
MCU已经沦落到纯堆设定的地步了。故事节奏全无，废戏铺天盖地，人物薄如蝉翼，连笑点也异常生硬。如今很明显的一个事实是，赵婷的叙事能力无疑是有问题的。《无依之地》也存在类似的缺陷，只是被她强烈的个人风格很好地掩盖了。一拍这样的爆米花电影，顿时就全暴露了。
没看过漫威电影，朦胧感觉这是一部大杂糅的片子，不仅是导演自己的风格与漫威宇宙观的艰难磨合，也闪现了近年来好莱坞各种权利议题比如种族、女性、性少数等等，还仿佛是轴心时代文明的拼贴，包括古希腊神话、基督教末世说甚至还有点中国道家的味道（五指山不知道算不算佛教）。有野心了不起，能不能驾驭则是另外一回事了。不过，个人还挺能接受这种剧情薄弱的叙事，连结尾打新神都能这么出奇得平静，可真是love&peace呢。被篡改记忆这招《银翼杀手》也用过，超级英雄的接受能力果然高于普通仿生人啊。
这哪里史诗宏大了啊，就是一正常的超英片的模样。无聊段子莫名尬笑，以往的漫威该有的全有了。另外漫威上映前能不能说一下嘉玛陈是主角，她真的完全撑不起来一部片。
有顺滑舒适的观感，细腻饱满的感情和画面，但故事实在单薄，场景和妆造都不是很精细，复古感与科技感的融合上做得没有很好，几度看出来克洛伊赵想要拍出维伦纽瓦的感觉，最后只沦为了低配版的扎导正义联盟。
强行把一堆宗教历史社会议题塞进一部爆米花类型片里，结果只能是两边都不讨好。还有人类进化是靠着高等外星生命帮助的这套理论，有点简单粗暴，还有点蠢，消解了人类进化本身的艰辛，明明是漫长的时间、不断的试错、付出无数代价的过程。当然进化到今天，也依旧是个人类而已。。
上一次看过这么流水账的爆米花电影还是上一次。
你说凯伦费奇，一部一部的换了多少个导演了?改过的吗？换汤不换药啊，人家赵婷也有理由说的“我拍的什么电影啊?我拍的文艺片呀!你这批演员什么人啊，这剧本什么水平，你让我拍?”漫威电影现在什么水平啊？那么多演员，你刘思慕，奥卡丽菲，都在演主角，他能演吗？演不了，他没这个能力知道吗？再下去漫威电影要掉到4分了，4分完了，掉到3分，接下来粉丝都不看了，还有人说“漫威电影是在铺垫，为之后的大决战打基础。”哦呦，谢天谢地，你像这样的电影都拍不好，你能跟我保证在复联5复联6这样关键的电影能拍好?务实一点，我劝漫威，先把故事，拍法，电影的这个理念先搞懂，滚导拍的挺好的你把他开了干什么你告诉我，人家去dc拍个8.0你到告诉我怎么解释?脸都不要了。
至于日裔编剧书写，华裔导演力排众议加入的广岛原子弹片段，Chloé Zhao可真行（贬义）
即使抛开最争议那部分不谈，这片也着实差劲。全片充斥着表达与妥协的拧巴感，使它既没有完成商业电影可看性的任务，也没有说出任何言之有物的内容，空洞、乏味、虚假、自以为是，可看性0，存在意义0。
When you love something, you protect it. It's the most natural thing in the world.
算是比较有意思的一部漫威了。文本一如既往的弱，莫名其妙的搞笑段落让节奏有些失衡，人物情感转变略生硬，但整体低沉又宏大的气质还是打动到我，在大银幕看应该会加分很多。选角方面有些让人出戏，两个狼家的仔同时喜欢上一个叫Sersi的女人，中世纪家族徽章戒指和“一个复杂的身世”让我以为Dane要说：其实我是北境长城的守夜人。
第一次看进去赵的电影，她和漫威还挺配的……
