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.

爱老婆的方式有很多种，饭都吃不上的情况下就别买胭脂了。画面和打斗很惊喜，剧情很难受，好在不拖沓
冷兵器时代的疯子们，刀客们的墓志铭。演员虽然都没名气，倒是形象都很合适。整部电影弥漫着强烈的逝去感。
十步杀一人，千里不留行。刀一旦拔出，便很难留手。命运只是幻象，一切早已发生。
作为网大来说还可以吧，拍摄的方向路子还凑合，故事无甚趣味，演员台词功力太逊了，这些台词说的不好，武打风格还行。
想不到会在这样的网大里看到如此精彩的打斗，真刀真枪、行云流水，让人惊喜！功夫片还是活着的。故事虽算不上出彩，但是氛围场景塑造得很好，尤其是一些台词颇有深度，“大丈夫做事看是非不看厉害”、“自己做的事就要承担后果”，直白又犀利，以前知道这些道理，现在更觉得对。只是真的面临“快活不下去”的境遇时，到底该怎么选择呢？或者说，是不是做好了承担后果的觉悟，有些事情，就可以做呢？
我个人一直很喜欢武侠片，这部片是我自从《师父》之后，看到的最正宗的武侠片了，武打戏设计的很精彩，唯一美中不足的是故事上总感觉少点东西，看完之后没有回味感。但是瑕不掩瑜，喜欢武侠片的小伙伴还是很值得一看的

动作设计有新意，镜头设计也有可取之处，虽然故事确实是拉胯了，但也不至于连个及格分也没有吧……
故事完整 但是剧中人三观和我不太一样 至少在我知道被人出卖了的时候我一定会拿起刀先宰了他 一了百了 而且动作武打戏简单 真实👍🏻
冲着服装、景色、音乐，给个及格分。这里面正面任务脑子都没发育好，像个傻子似的跟聪明的匪徒对决，果然，一个个挂掉了，主角因为光环幸免于难。明知道匪徒不讲规则，不讲承诺，不择手段，本来凭借着枪法，偷偷潜入小镇，敌在明我在暗，占据优势有很大希望取胜，结果呢，女主脑残要去刺探情报，干掉对方就行了，有什么情报好刺探的？有加勒比海藏宝图？结果，敌人没那么蠢，女主直接送人头！然后呢，男主带入去拯救女主，本来偷偷救人就行了，非要闪耀登场，帅不过三秒，被揍了一顿之后做了条好狗，乖乖的去替匪徒抢银行。那个快枪手更搞笑，就算你比对手快，在决斗的时候也应该保持警惕，随时拔枪，竟然非常陶醉的去舔枪，然后被爆头。两个女人在谷仓决斗的时候，女主竟然主动把子弹去掉，表示想肉搏，其实黑女人给她一枪就完事了，结果非要脑抽...
这个年代愿意拍武侠的都是值得鼓励的，虽然里面有很多电影的影子，不失为一个全力之作，至少是一个认真在拍的网大，在网大里属于水平较高的了。
属于那种看了不会反感的网大，不恶俗不谄媚，甚至还有点风格。剧本简单粗糙，有点老土，但是整部片完成得算可以。
有徐浩峰拍的<<倭寇的痕迹>>的味道，不错
久违的国产古装西部片 西部刀客也曾火过一阵 不过这片有点狗血了 哥们陷害霸占妻女 感觉好水浒传 整体还可以吧
片名太霸气，但跟李白侠客行的诗中意境完全不沾边。剧情背景还可以，打戏也看得过去，但没必要学绣春刀。尤其是男主这个演员撑不起这个角色，远不如绣春刀里张震演的沈炼。这电影开头的几个画面是真的不错，西北、大漠、刀客、策马、残幡，算是这类武侠片的标准缩影。
金满堂两次被捅后背第二次捅有点搞笑 武打设计最好的是在坟头
作为网大还可以！一个长得像张震，一个长得像赵立新，一个长得像徐锦江。刀刀溅血，杀人不废话，布景用心有质感，动作利落无慢镜，光凭这几点就完胜热搜上的一堆古装剧。PS：回马刀真是YYDS！
感觉像是集《东邪西毒》《绣春刀》《倭寇的踪迹》等影片于一身的电影。动作戏整体感觉还不错。文戏也很好，特别是男女主。感觉反派有点弱，且模仿《绣春刀》里的润哥痕迹太明显了。个人感觉7分吧！剧本继续打磨一定可以更好。
看出来导演想努力拍不一样的网大，也确实有点不一样的感觉，但故事、武打、表演都有点中途半端。
爽爽爽，苦逼剑士，病娇妻，叛逆孩子，坏大哥，这就是小时候常常幻想的武侠梦啊。
