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.

五毛特效 看开头就能猜到会怎么发展的故事 表现太用力就有点假
剧情比较老套，跟期待的有落差。洪翼舟他们怎么出的山洞那些一笔带过，衔接不好。而且主角光环太过了……
二是心疼

在灾难面前，西方人的传说是诺亚方舟，我们祖先的故事是精卫填海，愚公移山。
“他知道的。”老洪救人掉到地下，小洪知道了那里我莫名其妙哭得好惨啊。
经历过这几年水灾、疫情、洪灾等等事件，我被这种中国人面对重大灾难不放弃任何一个生命的坚持感动数次。正是因为这些平凡而伟大的英雄们存在，我们才能生活得如此安稳幸福。
片子情节挺紧张的，演员都演的挺好的。给中国铁道兵、铁道建设者们的献礼，他们真是太不容易了，就是如果再多说一点建设者的剧情会更好一些。虽然有些刻意煽情，但还是挺感人的。总之作为国家宣传片，还算好看的吧。
铁道兵是和平时期牺牲最多的军人，即使脱下军装，仍然以军人的标准严格要求自己。铁道兵集体转业后成立的中国铁建，是新时代中国高铁的建设者，见证了中国高铁从无到有，直到世界第一。截止2020年底，随着银西高铁的建成，中国高铁总里程达到3.8万公里，占世界高铁总运营里程的近70%。
# 78 Venezia # 背景补充（每天四部排片坚持到第四天就会出现一个精神低谷期，所以此时看到的影片评价都会体现出非常强的偏差性，恰巧这部片就赶上了这个低谷期），因此虽然这是一部高质量具有各种业内讽刺梗的佳片，我却完全没有get到，因此给了三星是最保守的评价，克鲁兹和班德拉斯其实都发挥的特别好，需要院线上映后二刷
朱一龙滤镜也不能让我觉得电影好看
别的都还好，就……恶劣的大暴雨天气徒手攀岩悬崖峭壁+悬崖一跃精准攀搭上直升机……就……
5、作为中国电影为数不多的灾难片，还是要给四星。
是个拍的很好的片子。朱一龙和黄志忠演技都很到位，特别是黄演的老爷子，把那股当过兵的老人家特有的不服输和倔强演的真的好。就是觉得陈数不太适合这个角色。本来可以给五星的，但是电影就非得煽情到老爷子给儿子垫脚死掉来显示自己的贡献，还有就是在洞里没劲儿了走不了的电话，非要煽完情才炸，那起来的动作可不像已经虚脱了的。还能站在直升机腿儿上也没谁了。为了渲染情绪而渲染情绪
经历过这几年水灾、疫情、洪灾等等事件，我被这种中国人面对重大灾难不放弃任何一个生命的坚持感动数次。正是因为这些平凡而伟大的英雄们存在，我们才能生活得如此安稳幸福。
是有中国文化的主旋律电影，除了“主角不死”的光环过于宏大，大场面想要震撼却不达效果之外，可圈可点的地方还是很多的。父子情的刻画，人性的选择，甚至是父亲临死前说的那句你女朋友是个好姑娘，都很中国，值得三分的鼓励。
特效太让人出戏了，还是一样的套路和情节，基本可以猜到故事发展
演员好认真的演，导演好认真的堆，有一种“我们这么努力了，你咋还不哭呢”的感觉……倒是朱一龙女朋友说“认个怂会死啊”，朱低头，亲她一口说，“对你不会”，有点甜到hh
紧张，刺激，特效用在刀刃上挺好的。人物结局有点拉胯，加上有一点点的强行升华，瑕不掩瑜。
2、在暴雨中徒手攀岩比较假；跟父亲在山洞回忆那段太长；两次塌陷掉下去的几个人，都太干净了，不带怕的，那直播很尬，完全去掉吧。
