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.

在市场这么冷清的时候，需要有一部大片来撑场子，月球陨落绝对值得！工整规矩的灾难电影，场面特效绝对一流，只不过剧情流水线。不过他们进入到月球里面了！我还能说什么呢！
不新鲜。且套路也没打好。。把亲情辅线加入大量的动作戏调味，以掩盖过期腐坏的主线构思。
灾难艺术家罗兰又来了23333333
Literally a disaster 当然是指电影本身。Jesus，RE导演是怎么把灾难电影拍成真灾难的啊？！（damn尤其考虑到他以前的classic灾难片，就…..无语了），不过想了想，毕竟是独立日2的导演，不奇怪，晚节不保了，早点收手吧，真的。考虑到钱和时间，别看，当然了，要是说“我不带脑子，就想去看看特效大制作balhblah，而且我还比较失眠”，那当然推荐了
煽了一个多小时的情；剪辑稀碎；很庞大的构想，很老气的套路，很多的漏洞。
我觉得特效还行，达到了独立日2的水平。如同反派的智商一样....
You fight for the people you love.
抢钱不专业，逃跑真一流！爆炸贝真是爆的一手好炸啊！
既没有蠢到让人觉得可爱，又没严肃到使人信服，就是一般的弱智而已。不过看到Patrick Wilson演主角还是蛮开心的。
在太空文明面前人类还是十分渺小和知识有限的群体。与其他太空灾难片相比，从斗外星生物变成斗外星智能体，还算与时俱进，但人类祖先的背景设定确实有点离谱，如果文明同源为何科技差这么多，而且一个智能体发现目标为啥不通知其他智能体非要单打独斗十几年。（多一星给IMAX的特效，看灾难和科幻片还是挺带感。）
文戏和节奏一塌糊涂，因为知道艾默里奇的文戏就是垮主要看特效，我强撑到一小时再也撑不下去。老头啊老头，2012收官不是挺好的么，搞这部出来砸招牌干什么？还是说他们给的太多了？

作为一部科幻灾难动作爆米花大片，在看的过程中居然昏睡过去三次，也说不清是片子太烂还是人太累了……
想要表达的东西太多了：1、首先这摄影就让人很不舒服，用一两次就行了，老是用就晕了；2、废话太多，语速超快，对剧情而言可有可无，完全可以精简；3、各路配角，要么半路死亡，要么半路才出现，这样设置不对的；4、小女孩林赛的片段完全可以不要，只是为了提现冈萨雷斯的仁心吗？5、杰帅这么聪明火爆的人，抢劫的备选方案没有，逃生路线没有，几个劫匪说死就死，半路求助阿爹的老部下？而且放炸弹那个傻儿子，竟然是一路跑回去，自行车都没有嘛？不死才怪呢？综上所述，我严重怀疑电影一开始没有完整的剧本，一边拍一边编写的，或者说是改写的。一言以蔽之：卖拷贝快要过时了……
三人驾驶飞船冒险进入月球深坑的时候，还算部好片。
挺傻逼的，但是好莱坞灾难片不能没有艾默里奇老师啊……（语重心长
Hally Berry怎么都不带老的？！男主角也是大熟脸。凑合吧，灾难片的老套路了，但跟《2012》没法儿比吧，各种逻辑不通，就看个视效。开头想起前几天馆里看的《加加林》，都是人类进太空主题。强加进去的中国元素中国女孩和中国话一样生硬！最近真是各种大片儿突然来扎堆儿。看完也不是那么想要海报了。今天最大的电影娱乐话题就是94届奥斯卡-威尔史密斯打主持人。看完开手机发现资料馆4月排片也出来了。with F.英皇影城1号IMAX厅19:25场，40多人不到50人。
本以为是末世的科幻大片，实际是爆米花爽片，无论是逻辑和表演都比较拉跨，最后20分钟的反转有一点脑洞大开的意思。属于6分的科幻作品。
艾默里奇不仅跟地球有仇，而且跟前妻的现任丈夫有仇哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈啊哈。看得还是挺欢乐的。1080P 22/03/30
哈哈，简直是小时候看过的各种关于月球的阴谋论的大杂烩，倒是挺有意思。可惜没好好发挥脑洞，拍出了不伦不类的烂片。
