Filming has begun for Us, BBC One’s four-part drama adapted by David Nicholls from his hugely popular novel of the same name.
Tom Hollander (Baptiste, The Night Manager) will be joined by Saskia Reeves (Luther, Shetland), Sofie Gråbøl (The Killing, Fortitude), Tom Taylor (Doctor Foster, The Dark Tower), Iain De Caestecker (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, The Fades) and Thaddea Graham (Curfew, The Letter for the King), with casting by Sarah Crowe. It is produced by Drama Republic and Bandstand Productions.
Douglas Petersen (Tom Hollander) is blindsided when his wife Connie (Saskia Reeves) tells him that she’s not sure she wants to be married to him anymore. Agreeing to still go on their planned family grand tour of Europe, Douglas vows to win back the love of his wife and repair his troubled relationship with their son Albie (Tom Taylor).
Reflecting David Nicholls' signature mix of humour and heartbreak, Us brings the Petersens' poignant and often hilarious story to life, taking viewers with them on their once-in-a-lifetime journey through some of the most beautiful cities in the world.
David Nicholls says: “It’s a huge thrill to see the novel come to life, and with such a wonderful cast and production team. We want to make something funny, touching and beautiful, to really explore marriage and family life, all against this incredible backdrop.”
Tom Hollander and Hannah Pescod say: “We are delighted to be working with Drama Republic and the great David Nicholls in bringing his beautiful novel to BBC One. The trials of the Petersens will strike a chord with many - a family tale for our times.”
Piers Wenger, Controller of BBC Drama, says: “We feel so honoured to be bringing David’s beautiful novel to BBC One and to have the brilliant Tom Hollander and Saskia Reeves playing the leading roles. We are thrilled to work with David and Drama Republic once again and also with Bandstand Productions on their debut drama for the BBC.”
Greg Brenman and Roanna Benn, Executive Producers for Drama Republic, say: “David Nicholls is a unique and rare talent who miraculously manages to intertwine profound emotion with full-on humour. This glorious adaptation has attracted an exceptional cast in Tom Hollander, Saskia Reeves and Sofie Gråbøl. We couldn’t be more excited to begin filming.”
Us is executive produced by Greg Brenman and Roanna Benn for Drama Republic, Tom Hollander and Hannah Pescod for Bandstand Productions, Jo McClellan for BBC One and David Nicholls. It is directed by Lisa Siwe (Temple, Modus) and distributed internationally by BBC Studios. Filming will take place in London, Amsterdam, Venice, Barcelona and Paris.
嘲讽很到位 最后结局太有趣了 给了观众很多想象空间
拿《魔幻时刻》的内核，致敬《喜剧之王》《杀死比尔》《荒野大镖客》《雨中曲》《教父》《天堂电影院》等等经典，夹杂带着东北大碴味的低级笑点，融合做的特别恰当。但剧本仍是开心麻花的一大问题，幕与幕之间的衔接太过生硬，整体走向仍然流于俗套，影片最终立意不明确、模棱两可。
西方讽刺的已经在我们看来见怪不怪了，他们当个黑色幽默，我们的生活偷着乐吧
演员也是惊喜，从来没太注意过魏翔老师，就是眼熟的麻花的经典配角，没想到是宝藏演员，致敬《雨中曲》的桥段很有感染力。后面的花絮看到他杀青后的感言，也能感觉到他是真的热爱表演，希望好演员发光发亮。
影片中保持天秤的平衡贯穿始终，回看现实中，无论职场中还是职场外，几乎所有事情的发展过程都可归纳为，产生冲突，相互妥协，实现平衡的不断循环。世上本没有绝对的平衡，就看我们如何调整支点。
片子节奏很慢，但讽刺性十足，一个伪君子老板用尽手段把自己的天平工厂做到绝对平衡。
资本家：我真心实意是把你们这群拿糊口工资为我们每天卖命12小时的员工当成最亲的家人的 (只不过我家狗的花园比你们全家六口住的地方大得多罢了)
一部含腾量为零，笑点密集的电影，恭喜麻花，恭喜魏翔老师。片尾他拿着花的自白，也像剧里魏成功的杀青感言。
全程没有低级趣味，这一点真是太好了。以此起步，继续加油吧。
就像中国的制造业起步一样，拿过来、删功能、减成本，俗称“山寨”降级版。跟三谷幸喜当然没法比，《魔幻时刻》（电影节观看）所能达到的影院全观众magic hour的气场，这部完全不行。抛开前作不谈，前半部分相对顺理成章且好笑。后面加进来的元素，像是春节档定制。魏翔和马丽的演出令人印象深刻。P.S. 马丽的身材原来这么好
西班牙 喜剧 黑色幽默 电影 2021 讽刺
老套而无聊的剧情，但挡不住文艺青年高潮，借题发挥装逼
嘲讽很到位 最后结局太有趣了 给了观众很多想象空间
嘴上都是情谊，心里全是生意，伪善的人真就皮笑肉不笑，利益面前翻脸不认人，男主演得惟妙惟肖，不过这样圆滑世故的人好像越来越多了，也符合内卷的客观规律，电影本来是比较无趣的，导演加了段刺激的伦理偷情，整体看添色不少，最后被炒鱿鱼的人说的话挺有意思的，本来没有发生的事情双方都默认发生了，那本身就是逢场作戏。
希望大家不会因为这部电影是翻拍的而主动降低评价，毕竟本土化的改编不应该成为原罪！我感觉今年杀手真的有黑马成色，现场观影氛围也太好了，大家真的是全场爆笑，笑到前仰后合～我旁边的几个观众简直快笑抽了，我也是笑得脸都僵硬了。所以这部电影影评人评价的好坏已经不重要了，因为现场获得巨大快乐的观众们一定会成为这部电影的自来水，相信能很大程度抵消开心麻花这些年自带的招黑体质。今年的魏翔有点儿去年张小斐的感觉，我还挺期待接下来的票房走势的。而且魏翔这个第一个男主角的戏份完成了戏里戏外的完美契合，片尾彩蛋令人感动！如果明年魏翔上春晚的话真的是完美复刻张小斐的李焕英了。魏翔，“在不久的将来，一定会得到观众的认可”！片中的台词或许即将变成现实了。
3.5，题材很有趣，如果艺术源于生活又高于生活，描写资本家的电影那远远低于生活，设计很巧妙，天平工厂，平衡，很棒的隐喻，男主演的很棒
结尾手里的冲击钻很有趣
哈维尔·巴登可塑性简直太强了。演这种黑色喜剧真是大材小用。以前看过一部《恶老板》，也是妙趣横生、恶趣味不断。本片叫《好老板》，本来想看看有多好。结果发现是反语。只有更恶，没有最恶。简直太不做人了。万万没想到的是，貌似接受潜规则的女实习生才是以猎物形象出现的猎手。不知最后算双赢么？
又是半部好戏。前面错位的笑果非常好，但到了黑帮老二知道杀手是演员那一刻就完全泄气了，后面的叙事好似在不断打补丁+攒段子+卖情怀，失去了笑果。
就是听了那个豆瓣影评人的年前的夸奖才去看的……悔啊，悔啊。
