A most pleasingly atmospheric rendition of the tale, noirishly photographed and moodily set, this is the version which probably would have delighted Conan Doyle the most. There is one important plot change which enables the beautiful Alice Brandt to enjoy both a larger role and a more intriguing part in the proceedings. This change also builds up the parts of Dr Mortimer and Lord Charles, yet at the same time provides a nice introduction to the is-he-sinister or is-he-a-good-guy Barrymore, deftly played here by Fritz Rasp.
Despite the sting of its well-developed story, the spellbindingly atmospheric direction and the engrossing performances delivered by the entire cast, many fans may find this version somewhat disappointing. For at least three reasons: As in the novel, the part played in the narrative by Sherlock Holmes, though vital, is minimal. And in this version, not only has no attempt been made to enlarge his role, if anything both writer and director do their best to minimize it. Holmes does not even make his entrance for half-an-hour, and when he does finally appear, he has his back to the camera. It is Fritz Odemar, as Dr Watson, who receives the more favorable camera angles. And there is a purpose in this. It is Watson, not Holmes, who figures as the main protagonist of The Hound of the Baskervilles. For the bulk of the narrative, Holmes disappears. It is Watson and Lord Henry (Peter Voss) who take up the running. The movie is almost over, before Holmes closes in on the villain. And even so, this is not the obsessed, self-important Holmes we are accustomed to see taking charge. Another problem is that the title hound itself does not figure a great deal in the action, a downgrading which will undoubtedly rate as another major disappointment for fans. And finally, it could be argued that the script gives too much attention to Conan Doyle's red herring, the escaped convict, and not enough to the real villain.
This said, it must surely be admitted by all, that Odemar's interpretation of Watson—intelligent, charming, level-headed, courageous and resourceful—is much closer to Conan Doyle's conception than either the bungling, inveterately stupid Nigel Bruce or the self-effacing Ian Fleming.
One other player deserves special mention: Erich Ponto (Dr Winkel in The Third Man) who seems exactly right for Stapleton. A difficult part, superbly played.

[2.5]朱迪终于本色口音出演了一回。剧本太弱。covid甚至不是背景撑死算个白噪，
拍这种题材的片子 国外都是见微知著 透过市井小民表达着对现实的不满 国内是站在宏观的国家机器的角度 告诉你国家做了什么 并且我们应该幸福并感激 并没有人关心芸芸众生的普通人都是怎么苟延残喘过来的
不知道后人以后看到这段时间的新冠电影，是什么感受。
这是对新冠病毒正确的打开方式，简陋的医疗物资几乎靠自己命硬工作，根本没有人会来，只能等死，没有急救车，而这些人连成为一个数字的资格都没有，就这么被关起来按上钉子敲敲打打封印起来，仅仅3个月死了将近4w9，而且大多数来自更需要被看护的护理院，记得新冠在年前有个女孩，妈妈发烧送到急救中心，去世后直接被一辆车拖走，女孩追着载有母亲遗体的车追着奔跑厮喊拍打着车门，妈妈只是感冒了，不要带走我的妈妈，ZGYS在拍点什么，还没当时直播火神山和雷神山感人
累，脏，乱，手足无措，无人援助，崩溃了之后还是要戴上口罩继续往前冲，在一个小小的养老院是如此，更何况是在抗疫前线的医护人员。
朱迪演的太好了，大量的面部特写镜头，表现的非常有张力，题材很好，很自然，就是剧本薄弱的太靠演员支撑了
基本是小变态的独角戏 但足够撑起这个时代命题 从一个极侧面的角度 细节的描述这些新闻上的故事 尤其早阿兹海默的设计极为合理且真实 不仅是无助的救助对象 同时也是逼上战场的生力军 男女主在最后情感的最深处结合无助的时代背景情绪的崩溃是对整个故事的总结描写政府办事效率的触目惊心 在这次疫情中显得格外扎眼 数字背后的真相到现在不是反思而是避而不谈
追一下女主的电影。疫情下欧美医疗系统的紧绷资源不足，老人不是救助的首要，老了怎么办呢？？？疫情开始英联邦不建议公众戴口罩以此保证医疗人员需求🥲🥲收到了中国寄来的医疗物资😂😂结尾不仅仅是在控诉英联邦，对于自己无关的都视而不见
Sarah和Tony之间的情感建立通顺，两人的结局也蛮牵动人心。Sarah独自在养老院的一晚可以说是全片的高潮，孤立无援的绝望感表现过关。 //有点希望这部电影被更多国人知道。
Help 如果意译成 英国护工 也许比现在的译名 援助 更好。不是全部讲新冠疫情，新冠疫情袭击海尔默兹护理院这个封闭环境大概只占1/3多。但就这50分钟左右的戏让整部电影无比精彩。医疗系统崩溃，海尔默兹病人在疗养院里得不到救助绝望的死去。看过的第六部关于新冠疫情的电影，从《封闭》普通人的封闭压力，到《中国医生》还原式讲述疫情的开始，还有岩井俊二的疯癫，再到help里没有血腥，但用焦点前置的大块黑色配大提琴偶尔一下的紧张感。至少电影人对疫情已经从害怕，好奇到泰然处之和冷静思考。现在的世界冷静是最可贵的，因为太浮躁了。
疫情侵袭的段落非常有感染力，不管是国内还是国外，一定有人曾面临过这种无助的境遇。但以我国政治宣传片一向伟光正的风格来看，一般会有医生及时赶到救肯尼于弥留之际。外国疫情处置确实不如我们，但电影拍的不知高到哪里去
7.9 关于疫情、关于阿兹海默、关于特殊病患管制的社会暴力、关于卑微的年轻人，第一次警报伴随拉出死者房间昭示浩劫的来临，第二次伴随逃离的车上狂笑象征触犯条例的危机萦绕，第三次则以淋漓直面的质问和切肤的离别之痛加之疗养院的深不见底的不知罪之罪，疯狂地戳痛受众令其清醒，去感受这个社会的病态和粗暴。深焦特写和长镜头运动结合好评
同样是讲述新冠疫情的电影，这和XX医生带给我的震撼和喜好程度完全是天差地别。这部小制作虽然小，但依然保留了最基本的电影感以及优秀的演员表演。朱迪·科默那段救助打电话的长镜头足以刻进我的年度难忘瞬间中。本片用以小见大的方式来剖析当时的英国在面对新冠疫情时的社会生活方方面面。仅仅是通过一辆救护车，几通电话就能营造出当时的混乱和对底层人民的抛弃与谎言，可见这部电影的控诉意味有多强，更不必提最后朱迪坐在车里以打破第四面墙的方式发出的灵魂拷问了。
一个小故事，一个平凡人，切入点特别好，故事讲的很清楚
同样是新冠疫情，《援助》控诉现实，《中国医生》高调空谈歌颂，差太多了。
题材相当不错，触碰社会敏感话题，相比相同题材养老电影，故事深挖不够 ，缺乏亮点 。
大量采用了手持近景机位的纪录片形式，表达人物情绪上非常有效果，在后疫情时代看的第一部有关新冠肺炎疫情的片子，很有力量。
演技真好
新冠进入疗养院。真的好绝望啊。。。（口罩是中国捐的）
啾迪的演技太赞了！！！咱就是说，也只有其他国家才敢拍这种片子……Sarah和Tony的对手戏好自然啊，最后Sarah带Tony隔离的剧情还挺让人动容的
