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.

多主题、多人物，赵导演是真用150分钟踏实在7000年人类历史里塑造10个人物角色，想要的非常多，所以势必不完美，可能最大的意义就是给MCU破局，过去20多年来，MCU就像全世界电影的天神族，不断创造，也不断毁灭。。。
前面插叙插来插去的降低观感，整体剧情中等，结尾场面太酷了，巨物爱了。另外某电影公众号说的真对，现在观众们看电影之前先给自己预设一个政治立场，天天这样累不累啊？
看起来感觉像美版西游记
政治正确走火入魔啊。曾经的漫威：美队与巴基的情义润物细无声，冬兵上映后观众都磕疯了。如今的漫威：快看我们的主角团有亚裔！有黑人男同！黑人男同还有个拉丁裔儿子！天神族装逼装得不行但是造物中还是有个哑人妹子！反派是白人男！救世主是妹子！我的天这么简单粗暴地把政治正确糊到观众脸上，就算是国产烂片也不至于这样吧。
这个黑人（永恒族）活了几千年，目睹了黑人和华人被贩卖被奴役的过程，目睹了印第安人被残忍屠杀的历史，目睹了法西斯在全世界肆意侵略屠杀平民，然而到了法西斯被炸死的时候，他崩溃哭了
漫威宇宙又扩大了。阿灭真的是很有远见，怀念阿灭。
《永恒族》还不错，大量用自然光的场景，各种致敬泰伦斯·马利克。。。
霓虹色调；想喝boom boom lemon
杀手都是悲剧的，不冷的杀手更悲剧，里昂是，凯特也是。很好的杂糅了《杀死比尔》和《这个杀手不太冷》。
华裔拍板
设定挺有意思的，思考的东西也是站在人类文明史而不是基于国别的那点子大小事（拉踩美队2/3的政治惊悚片路线），哆啦A梦有一集剧场版也是这个立意。不过闪回有点故弄玄虚了，悬念也没啥新意。原子弹那段罢美国站在反战的角度倒也没啥好说的，点打在科技创造大面积杀伤武器上是自洽的，中国人因为民族情感不能接受也可以理解。我不喜欢的地方在于这些神的心智真不大成熟，跟某个短评里写的在亚非拉做公益的国际生差不多，当然在MCU的语境下想做严肃讨论也不大可能吧（曾经的福斯漫威倒有可能），赵导想做成人向还是投靠DC罢hhh。
总而言之这是一套什么都探索得很显浅的电影，但因为融合的元素很多所以相对其他一些漫威电影更经得起重看（如果有人会的话）
我错了女主挺好的。导演已经很努力扮酷和幽默了，只可惜效果不佳，动作戏挺乏力的，不少地方看得出来想走风格化，可惜没这个本事。餐厅打斗明明可以有不少可以发挥的地方，结果拍出来百分之八十普通动作片场面百分之二十镜头上拙劣的花招（其实整部电影都这样）（浅野忠信居然演了这么个角色hhh好啊！）
看完以后头疼欲裂，一睡就睡了快15个小时才醒。没想到赵婷能比扎克还装，哪怕还真能有剧本剪辑的分歧，但这片她自己的导技就有很大问题。开头就是一场各种穿的五颜六色衣服的角色来了一场俗套的漫威式动作戏，但是还非要搞几个荒野猎人似的镜头，实在让人发笑。如果这还不够的话，紧接着的一个小时的闪回和找人戏份及其无聊和折磨。结尾大战还算好看，但是同时还是充满了莫名其妙的剧情和角色。
在一个一帮重获自由意志的高级智能机器灭神的故事中，人类非常不重要，从人类习得的“爱”很重要，爱可以征服一切，这是好莱坞把很多脑洞故事强行结局的惯用手法，个人觉得可以忽略。。。
罗马电影节欧洲首映，赵婷朱莉陈静和俩男的都来了，永恒族在永恒之城罗马。电影本身真无聊，人种和性少数面面俱到真是不容易，如果只有一个半小时我会给三颗星。彩蛋也无聊。
死一半人还是所有人都死？灭霸选择了前者。
个人创作意图与漫威整体企划痛苦交媾产下的畸形混血儿
剧情还是流畅，杀杀时间，爽一下，还是可以的
或许是目前漫威宇宙最好的电影了吧？两个半小时完全不觉得长，各个角色循序渐进刻画得非常好，看到最后你不会觉得人物动机莫名其妙；动作戏也很棒，尤其是最后那一场Makkari简直不要太爽！有些莫名的低分是因为从导演卡司到剧情的diversity让部分人不爽了吗？等到国内上映后我感觉短评将会是非常精彩：）））虽然目前就有些已经不堪入目了【不过看到Paper Boi演这么正经有爱的角色我有时候真的会出戏
