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.
故事平庸，浪费了一群上了年纪的好演员，年轻的那些不太行，夸不动。
剧情本身的悬疑色彩较弱，对于如今的观众来说，30分钟内猜到凶手毫无难度。但是本片当然也不会是将重点放在这里，而是从无数庭辩剧就一直讨论的话题，“法律到底是不是在维护正义？”律师是要维护公平和正义，还是要为当事人争取最大权益？”这个话题我早已有答案，也许每个人都有答案。
电视剧级别和节奏，游艇两地产商博弈的部分可看。
看到方便面头型就不舒服，更何况是TVB都不会用的老套剧情。据说是廖启智的遗作，加一⭐。
应该是剪过很多东西，它想讽刺的，虽然很老套很TVB，但放在当下都适用。韩国电影都经常有这种题材，只是人家能够说的范围也大很多。不过人物太多，变得工具化。
实际是三星半，剧情有点平庸，结尾有点小反转，考虑到所有都是实力派演员，演技亦都在线，放在网大上映，已经算不错了。
低分原因估计是因为还是要靠富豪弄倒富豪，我感觉还可以这片。牵强的地方稍微多了点哈。
只能说新一代的港片编剧同新一代的香港演员一样青黄不接、乏善可陈，全剧都靠着老戏骨的支撑。
本来勉强打个三分，但爱了这句话：“我是害怕究竟带她来到一个怎样的世界” 这个世界不是非黑即白，但是我们应当追求正义和分辨是非，而不是拿这些话去劝人权衡利益。
正义战胜邪恶，即使是制造出来的正义，也好过让坏人逍遥法外。
看完之后，发现这部电影还不错，没有院线上映可惜了。。。给5分支持。。。算是近年比较好的香港电影，比反贪风暴5好多了，真的。推荐大家可以看看。
Bug确实有些多，被现实架空了的新时代香港主旋律
中规中矩港片，没什么大惊喜也没什么大穿帮bug，最后翻盘削微有那么点突兀，这种官商政高层勾结串通的大型利益组织，应该是没有这么容易翻车吧，黑白通吃证人啥的都能砍翻，正经渠道不可能搞沉，只能从他们内部自爆
现在的港片怎么都是网络大电影的样子。阵容真强大，方中信那几句很精妙，我已经收了阿婆家的几万，那是他们全部家当。富豪不会把全部家当拿出来吧。
怎样定义“公正”，每个人的角度不同，答案也很可能是不同的。法律是有不完善的地方，也有徇私枉法的官员，但法律必须要发挥衡量公正的天平作用，而不是靠某个人用职业经验的“小聪明”来维护，那是对“公正”非常危险的“挑衅”。
类型: 动作 / 悬疑 / 犯罪
香港一帮老戏骨撑着勉强看完，剧本不够扎实...可惜这强大的卡司，为廖先生勉强3星
廖启智最后一部戏 智叔演技一直无可挑剔 虽然该片是网大 RIP智叔
中段，港片的法庭辩论要是电影里演的，那就太扯蛋了。什么时候不戴假发了，也许就真正回归了。
还蛮讨厌这种解决方式（骗人才能达到的司法公正）。
