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.
老得连走路都有点蹒跚的德州老牛仔，居然还能机智地摆脱墨西哥警察和保镖，把孩子带回美国爸爸身边，还顺路赢得了小酒馆老板娘的芳心，真不知道东木先生是高级黑还是低级红。
越到后面越变味了，已经完全脱胎换骨成了一部没有亚当斯的亚当斯卡通片，精神内核被完全剥离，只剩下作为ip符号化的亚当斯一家，如果是奔着亚当斯去的，那看起来会相当没劲儿。
可以说是精灵旅社+小黄人了，温馨的家庭喜剧
但无可否认的是，第二部带给我们的除了家庭团圆之外，还有着不一样的温馨和幸福。
what the fuck ?
第一部讲亚当斯一家怎样走出舒适圈，开始被人们接受。第二部则开始走平庸的家庭路线，以亲情为导向。
片子后半部分呈现出的人与人之间的温馨感让人动容，但是编剧在剧情安排和细节刻画上的把握明显功力欠佳，总体节奏控制力一般。最后总有一种感觉，是不是老得掉牙的迟暮米国老人也比墨西哥这个屎坑地方强上千万倍，希望这只是我这种贰佰伍脑残的恶意揣测。另，克伊爷爷真的是太特么上岁数了，走路都费劲，下次拍个养老院题材的直接坐轮椅多好……
3.5。東木這幾年的電影都挺一根筋的。區別僅在於，他自己主演的時候這個問題會更嚴重一點。
东木此片是没有好好打磨啊，没有什么冲突，就是单纯的老爷车展了
但凡是进入千禧年后他主演的电影，你会发现无一例外都是童话。本片亦不例外，唯一区别就在于到现在他已经抛弃了那种悲情的想象或者陶醉。《老爷车》是用一种愤懑甚至暴戾，以自我牺牲实现了看似不可能的交流，而本片打通交流障碍的，似乎只有善良，还有一张没有任何攻击力的脸。整个电影看下来，没有哪怕一场稍微紧张的危机事件，没有，就像大卫•林奇《史崔特先生的故事》，唯一的冲突就是一个老头固执到可爱地开着除草机穿越大半个美国。但你说这算是江郎才尽力不从心吗？也不是，一些情境的构建都指向激烈的冲突，但最终还是被他本人所一笔带过了。童话在今天看起来保鲜期已经越来越短，并不是说什么人越来越现实这类废话，而是很多时候，人们都不相信，美好幸福的事情往往都是简单直接的，理所当然的。
娱乐性更强了，有点违背了哥特反映现实的黑暗喜剧内核，但胜在制作精良，who doesn’t love watching the Family😏
我觉得比第一部好看，但是2/3后的剧情拉跨=(
智障老舅有点东西啊哈哈哈哈 还有那个 do you have a piano in the laboratory? 严谨极了

东木真的是老了，没有了过往作品的冲突与矛盾，剩下的尽是岁月带来的平缓和温柔，但从头至尾看完也是给人一种舒适的感觉。如果可以，还是希望他可以一直拍下去。
东木老爷子真的不应该再主演了，一举一动都颤颤巍巍得让人不忍看，马戏用替身这个大家都能理解，但出拳的绵软无力，哪怕镜头马上对切都没用。Mike这个角色用九十高龄的老人来演，但凡不是东木自导自演的话，选角导演都能算是失职。不过我也能理解东木，他未必是真的想自己主演，而是他不主演很可能就拉不到投资。
好像没啥gothic味道了，就一个普通的挽救叛逆期女儿和家人关系的动画片，也并不好笑。
带点哥特风的公路电影？！自我认同，家族认同的老把戏，整体乏善可陈。勉强可看。
度假？海滩？？公路旅行？？ 星期三变成弱智被一秒洗脑 小手全程壁花 几乎没有戏份 （很喜欢这个角色呀）以前的机智小手去哪了？？ 反派角色也是串到丁丁历险记里了 it就这？来了走了🤷🏿♂️ 最后一家人还爱上旅行 环游全球？？？ 看喜羊羊和灰太狼都比这个解闷吧
