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'.

是天真的童话，是“恶意的”政治隐喻与预言：愤怒的人群、开上大街的坦克、不可一世又最终绝望地跪倒在人民面前的独裁者。
两件事，第一，为什么要选择在泰国拍？因为国内不允许出现这种事情，注意，是不允许，不是不会；第二，所有需要枪来解决的问题，都不是钱的事儿。另外还有两处硬伤，第一，他媳妇儿一开始说过自己怀孕了吧？那为什么到了片尾两个月后还是没显怀呢？第二，您这也不是「误杀」啊，压根儿就没破题啊，强行续作嘛这不是！还是说，您想表达的其实是上层社会踩死一只虫子算误杀？
6.5/10，误杀第一部精彩的地方主要是在悬疑反转，不是父爱如山
第一部是悬疑片，第二部只能叫情感片，第二部完全可以不必叫误杀，只能说标题和内容毫无关联…不过不得不说，肖央的演技真的可以，谁能想到他以前是个唱歌的呢
还行吧，就是这种架空故事发生在哪儿都可以就是
原版没看过，但是我们中国拍的真的不错，为了救孩子的父亲可以连命都不要，人物刻画很丰满。
很拉胯很民粹--狗尾续貂，比一差五条街--女记者气质就像个神经质变态杀手
2021.12.17 耀莱成龙影城 反正与误杀1剧情上基本无关，剧情有影射现实，可以一看，还是不错的。
不及格的分数我觉得是功利的命名引发错误的期待酿成的后果，很想说一声活该。。但其实主题还好，演员的表演也称得上真挚。
整个电影不知道想说啥，文咏珊漂亮是漂亮，可是那个演技真的不能提高点吗？
娱乐性剧情紧张性还可以，几次反转也很有戏剧性，肖央的表演值得肯定
内容假，情节也没有什么出奇，翻牌吗，但还是苦的稀里哗啦，做父母的不容易
想要探讨阶级，又太浮于表面。想刻画人性 ，却只塑造了一群纸片人
算是很成熟的国产类型片了，可惜这种题材也只能把背景搬到国外。
肖央的演技进步真的是有目共睹，电影拍的态度我还是能看的出来的，比起今年院线里那些狗血有大病的爱情电影，误杀二还是领先的。
真是拍得太糙了，完全猜得到剧情的每一步发展。
“你这个独裁者，只会用恐惧和虚伪统治大家。”
BUG很巨大啊，有合適心臟來源的時候，醫生說這顆心臟無論在身高還是體重上都很合適你的兒子，然後轉眼就用在了大人的身上，然後大人的心臟又給小孩。最後爸爸把心臟給兒子的時候也很强求，因爲醫生說他兒子問題在於現在心臟不是9嵗小孩大小，而是成人大小，然後，你就移植了個大人的？？另外設定在泰國，想讓P民共情的居心也太明顯了吧！！
2.5 用真善美乌托邦口吻来揭示社会险恶的分裂的故事，留出自己的心脏、挟持人质、被遗忘的高利贷，整个行为链条好像哪里都充满了不对劲。。一个做编剧的中年男子，登场觉得自己是杰森伯恩呢吧
跟1比起来，2简直是坨狗屎，情节突兀，人设立不住，最最关键的是感动点特别生硬、尬的要死
