Sixty Glorious Years is an exercise in the creation of iconography, both for Victoria and its star, Anna Neagle (who subsequently became known as 'Regal Neagle'). Just as Elizabeth I commissioned artists to create flattering iconic images for public consumption, so this film performs a similar function, for Neagle is more beautiful than the real life Victoria. Controversial events (such as the 'Irish problem') are omitted and unpleasant aspects of Victoria's character (her petulance, arrogance, favouritism and 'right to privilege') are glossed over as endearing little 'whims'. Albert acts as a moderating influence when she goes too far.
The film followed a year after the highly successful Victoria the Great (d. Herbert Wilcox, 1937). Again the screenplay is by Miles Malleson and Robert Vansittart, and many of the supporting cast (the cream of acting talent of period) repeat their roles, this time for the colour cameras. This was the first full length Technicolor film of cinematographer Freddie Young, who captures the spectacle of royal weddings, grand balls and opulent interiors, with scenes actually filmed at royal palaces. Vivid battle scenes, set in Alexander Korda's empire territory (Sevastopol and the Sudan), rival those in The Four Feathers (d. Zoltan Korda 1939).
The title music sets the tone: a regal choir sings over a shot of the crown. Elgar's 1901 'Pomp and Circumstance' march is heard during the diamond jubilee celebrations and, as Victoria's coffin lies in state, the film concludes with Anthony Collins' stately music accompanied by the text of Rudyard Kipling's 'Lest we forget'. Combined with the emotional appeal of scenes of Victoria connecting with her 'ordinary folk', this is stirring stuff.
The film connects with contemporary events of 1938. The release of two celebratory royal films was intended to boost public affection for the monarchy in the wake of Edward VIII's abdication. Anglo-German relations were another touchy subject. With another war on the horizon, influential voices wanted appeasement, and the film could be seen to fit that agenda. Victoria herself was of mainly German descent, nicknamed 'the grandmother of Europe', while Albert is a 'good German', charmingly played by Anton Walbrook as a cultured, decent man.
Sixty Glorious Years now seems unduly formal and reverential. Had movies existed during Victoria's reign (they only emerged at the end) this might have been the kind of film produced. Unlike Mrs Brown (d. John Madden, 1997), it is all so very 'Victorian'.

青岛真是一个美丽的城市~！
有一种电影叫娱乐电影，有一种影片叫无脑爽片，没错，《红色通缉令》就是这样的电影。我得承认，这片我看得很爽，我确实被娱乐到了，看得那叫一个欢乐。
网飞时代的特殊产物 不需要口碑 只跟随流量
年度大型爽片，可惜没有在电影院拿包爆米花看了，这大概就是一部电影像是看了好几部电影的感觉，整个一个大杂烩，强森负责壮，加朵负责美，小贱贱负责嘴炮，好一个各司其职。
爆米花电影。你能信吗，在这部电影里，三个主演中演技突破最大的是加朵……强森十年来一个演技，Ryan从死侍开始，就被死侍永久附体了，演什么都一个样。（加朵太美太美太美）
这片亮点居然不是三主角，而是三彩蛋，一是开篇我以为打开了远古外星人（旁白也是要恰饭的），二是黄老板的小品（欧美歌手终究逃不过的宿命），三是吴京仅一秒的精湛演技
DC夺宝奇兵？以后都用五毛特效拍电影算了。。。不过片中适合做表情包的镜头还不少，片尾黄老板戏份好评哈哈哈~
第一幕的几个跑酷式跟拍视角加分很多，让本来有些零碎的快剪连贯不少。整体上打得还是很热闹，阿根廷那一场戏明摆着模仿夺宝奇兵【糯米滋都哼主题曲了】，剪辑不功不过，观赏性还是很强的。
这是一部全员无演技的电影。外国人看这个真的不会有种和我们看什么《澳门风云》一样的感受吗。
奈飞特色的家庭爆米花片 要求别太高 这三个人两两完全没有什么火花也是绝了（死侍吹替是加瀬康之大舅子哈哈哈
5分。网飞超强阵容网络大电影。盖尔·加朵、瑞安·雷诺兹、巨石强森三个大明星在一部电影里演戏给你看，还要啥自行车？看看不太精彩的打斗，没有新意的剧情，不合逻辑的动机，神出鬼没的角色，当你要换台或者要睡着时，看到加朵所有不爽一扫而光。当然了，小贱贱也还是很可爱的。最不喜欢的是，巨石强森居然和加朵有吻戏。剧情上完全没有这个必要，而且他俩没有一点CP感。对了，黄老板客串挺有意思。
①直升机给火箭弹来个穿堂而过，惊险，聪明②达斯警官在世界各地都有执法权
2021年油腻版《纵横四海》，以及盖尔加朵会变成朱莉代餐么
黑亚当和黛安娜好上了，小贱贱惊呼，Dark U!乏味的还挺欢乐。
巨石强森和盖尔加朵就像是从海洋奇缘和神奇女侠穿过来的，而瑞安雷诺兹一如既往的不同角色同一种演法，花了两个亿投资的电影，都浪费在了不算很精彩的枪战和追逐战，开场的打戏还算不错，有成龙的感觉，后面就... 我就不提了。
网飞版《唐人街探案3》，穷尽一切大数据编法，让演员饰演其所代表的流行文化符号，集各种拙劣的模仿桥段于一身，整体毫无叙事策略可言，从头看到尾都没搞明白几个主人公到底在干什么，本就零散牵强的人物动作在结尾反转以后彻底走向毁灭，这还有脸铺续集线索呢？开场动作戏瑞安·雷诺兹搞了个山寨版成龙，从演员僵硬的肢体动作到镜头迟缓程度都让人以为是业余成龙影迷水平，真还不如抖音快手上一些照本翻拍的段子手，且其动作喜剧属性仅在这一场戏单独出现，算法算到哪是哪。
已经预想到不好看，但是没想到这么无聊。类型元素大杂烩，第一次意识到光头哥如此笨重，像极了我打坦克时被人措手不及秒杀的样子。五十分钟还没看到盖尔加朵露身材的戏，我已经无力坚持。
算是比较中规中矩的中国式母亲为催泪而拍的催泪剧情片吧。你说很生活化呢也不是那么共情，至少我这把年纪不会和我妈一下把最狠的话说绝了一下又挽着胳膊睡一个床上抱在一起腻歪。你说非得到得绝症不久于人世才开始被关注吧，有点儿极端，对传统牺牲奉献型中国妈妈的定位也比较理想化，至少我妈不会在我职场上被欺负的时候跳出来把我上司数落一顿，别说她压根儿不会出现，就算真在现场不骂我不够努力就不错了。癌症晚期真是个万能催泪武器。但作为陪癌症朋友剃过光头度过人生最后阶段亲眼亲身经历过这一切的人来说，明显细节就不是很有说服力了。anyway，为演员点个赞，演技绝对一流在线。
才去爱那些一直爱着你的人。
