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.

。没有强行反战反思，没有过于个人英雄主义，拍出了我们正义之师的精气神！但是压轴的长津湖之战反而流于程式化了，唉……
挺好看的，情节滴水不漏合乎逻辑，最后居然反转了一下，不是悲剧了。这马夫脑子挺好使的，还知道利用法国医生碎尸案来圆自己的故事
兰晓龙没让人失望！此片是中国电影工业的一大进步，三位导演，各把自我风格发挥出来了，突出的是陈凯歌的诗意景象，江村渔火，万里长城，还有在火车内对人物性格的展现，颇有大师之风范；徐克的动作美学,林超贤的军事戏，做的也非常具有观赏性。此片的剧作也是主旋律电影的一大进步，宏观命题与微观情绪的并存，小人物团体为主角，真是把好莱坞的优点算是学过来了，这点兰晓龙功居其首。当然，影片也有很多不足之处（个人认为黄建新让兰晓龙做了妥协）：家国生存与个人生存融合地不好、志愿军精神以及战争残酷性表达地不充分；宏观戏过多，导致人物性格没立足；结尾处理太差；特效一般，音乐铺的过满，三个导演的风格不是很统一。
终于看到了心心念念，期待已久的长津湖。无论场面，音效和特效都特别的棒，把抗美援朝这段波澜壮观的历史很好的呈现在观众面前。“没有冻不死的英雄，也没有打不死的英雄，有的只是军人的荣耀”，“如果我们不打这一仗，我们的下一代就要打，我希望我们的下一代能生活在一个没有硝烟的世界”，一句句台词震撼人心，引起共鸣。感谢前人的牺牲付出，才换来没有硝烟的和平年代。
想讲的太多，结果是一个也没讲好。剪辑混乱 ，特效低廉，情感线离谱，陈凯歌你还是把我对于你那点仅有的尊敬败光了。
讽刺了很多娱乐圈内幕，剧中剧，小姨妈的身材是真的好，旗袍美爆了。剧情从搞笑慢慢开始严肃起来谜团一层一层揭开，真相开始浮出水面，反转很惊喜，结局意犹未尽
话剧电影再添一员，不过有一说一这样兼顾社会性和诡计的讨巧剧本真不多。
寸土寸血的主题，满满当当的战斗，偶一细腻的情感，互不兼容的败笔。
7.5分，这其实就是一个《嫌疑人X的献身》的故事，女孩还活着，但如果让那些人知道女孩还活着，后续女孩肯定还会遭到报复，嫌犯之所以这么费尽心思就是为了隐瞒女孩还活着的事实，导演已经讲的很明白了，可惜我还是看到评论区有人说这是一个保护女孩名声所以才分尸的故事。更有甚者大谈阴谋论，你以为导演花那么多功夫辅垫的火苗隐喻是逗你玩的吗？可能我们中国电影缺乏的不是好观众，而是脑子正常的观众。
我觉得下次别设置这种任性小孩形象了，战争不是儿戏。
没有故事，没有故事，满屏的爆炸，满屏的爆炸，满屏的飞机，满屏的飞机，满屏的丢炸弹，满屏的丢炸弹，满屏的坦克，满屏的坦克。吊儿郎当的万里是个败笔，多余的人物，多余的人物。
7.6合理。可以看。缺点也有的。作为第一部作品很有诚意了。
拍戏的人疯，看戏的傻。反转多不一定烧脑，玩梗多不一定迷影。刘循子墨要不还是去看下精神科吧。
一部对绝大部分观众来说都非常有观影快感的影片。无论是紧凑的剧情、有血有肉的每个战士，还是震撼的场面和音效。从来没觉得电影院的时间过得那么快过，结局依然意犹未尽。四字弟弟饰演的伍万里眼神戏精准，从小混混成长成不屈战士的过程让人动容，不愧是新生代扛把子。吴京胡军发挥精彩，对手戏看点十足。
——“知道这个世界上什么最可怕吗？”——“记忆。”
真的很精彩了，一波三折，把我看进去了，而且很剧本杀，虽然小成本，但是很惊喜！
确实是很符合评分的片子，整体观感充实、离奇曲折，但又刚好差了一口让人拍案叫绝的气儿。但总之，能在这个超级无敌片荒的时节里遇到此片，我很高兴。
还挺好看的哦，全程一直在找白客，结果他一出来我就知道自己还是脸盲的可以。
从火车出逃的隐蔽戏和第一场村庄支援战太棒了，盖过了后半段的总进攻。整体而言，就特别博纳——主旋律，老面孔，秃如其来的口号式台词，虽迟但到的煽情，不过这次的惊喜角色是胡军饰演的雷爹。一场艰苦而伟大的胜利，来之不易的幸福。
沂蒙山小调一响，啥也别说了，作为一个临沂人，直接泪崩。😭😭
