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.
即使转战大银幕，团队仍然以《万万没想到》时期那种剪辑风格沾沾自喜，很下头。
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。
05.12.2021 | @ Regal Rockville | 过誉了。作为剧本杀应该不算差，作为电影的话太小儿科了。如果像唐探一样走多一点搞笑风是不是会好一点。
3.5 虽然悬疑有点幼稚，但是整个片子立意还好，致敬很多，有个做电影的样子。
“不相信有完成不了的任务，不相信有战胜不了的困难，不相信有战胜不了的敌人。”
没有事实，只有解构。无论在主题还是话剧式表演上都让我想起《第十一回》。虽然你细想，整个故事都显刻意，但是这个只能发生在民国的反转也在解构着当下。只是节奏差点，氛围差点，演技差点，各方面都还是差点。
很棒的片子，不尽表演和剧本优秀，而且还把解读交给观众，导演的处女作就这么厉害。
不是冲着悲壮的历史现实致敬我及格分都给不到…三小时到底拍了些什么？
前面1个小时絮絮叨叨，差点没有了兴趣，后面不断出现的剧情才渐入佳境。很赞啊，万合天宜也能拍这样的电影了。
国内投资最大电影，战争场面宏大，同时刻画了角色鲜明的人物，时长3小时，情节紧凑，参演人员众多，片尾人员字幕走了十分钟，没有彩蛋。看得出导演和演员投入了巨大的心力，可以作为战争片的教科书。几个不足的点，第一场战斗过于冗长，打了半了多小时，实际推动的剧情很少，使影片整体重心偏前。二是CG敷衍，细看都是没打磨的模型。电影精彩的主要原因是抗美援朝战争的残酷，实际上当年的战争远比电影展现的残酷，包括物资与美军的差距比电影展现的更大，战术甚至是自杀式的。结尾概括性地草草结束宣告肯定有续集，可能导演想在下一部展现近乎绝望的战场和更惨烈的牺牲。
可以看出导演还是保持着电影从业者的初心的。
万物皆甜，而你胜过万物✨
三星给演员的演技和配乐。接近三个小时的剧情太散碎，有些人物甚至都不怎么刻画就便当了，终究还是商业片。特效也太尬了，美国空军那部分蚌埠住了。唯一的惊喜就是音乐了，与大部分剧情相得益彰，更好的感染观众
还是很适合普通观众进电影院去看的，时间虽然长，但节奏控制的比较好，剧情也有递进，也并不复杂，容易理解。大场面很壮观，看得出来是花了大钱的。而且一般战争场面很多的话，很容易看不下去，但是这部电影好几场对决处理的很扣人心弦，也很燃，反正我看哭了好几次。印象比较深的就是对于美军战机的处理，从高处投下炸弹的视觉爆炸效果太触目惊心了。回到几个主演的处理，都刻画的比较清晰，没有因为角色众多而搞不清楚人物关系。总之，不会让你失望。
美军在雪山顶上朝被厚雪覆盖的志愿军们敬礼，我也再次撑了下头。应了雷公对万里说的那句：“被敌人瞧得起才叫本事！”
我们是被发现了吗
大年初一的凌晨4点结束观影。韩寒的味道在的
3'权力是暂时的，欢乐是永恒的
我觉得下次别设置这种任性小孩形象了，战争不是儿戏。
有些不必要的强行搞笑可以少一点（比如武人上通风口那里），整体来说有笑点有泪点，悬疑反转的气氛也烘托出来了，“一个女孩，想要站在舞台上唱歌，怎么了”？掷地有声的发问，从胸腔里发出共鸣。希望这种片子可以多一点！
