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'.

精神分裂的变体，揭秘的那一下有点意思，但真的一点都不恐怖，结局也很牵强
2.5。观影过程中一度期待的点是温子仁如何把“意念杀人”带来的恐怖效应发挥到极致，即便现实逻辑性部分无法自圆其说也无所谓，毕竟《潜伏》也好《招魂》也罢也都不能从故事根本上解决这个问题。但遗憾的是回归图穷匕见的解谜部分还是尝试着用试图解释一切的叙事方式构建视听语言，这就导致前面苦心经营的悬疑氛围和恐怖情境都被后面索然无味的血浆虐杀戏所彻底取代，生死关头依靠亲情关系完成反戈一击的桥段更是让人轻松回忆起《招魂1》未能解决的结尾问题。放在今年一通乱拍加延续IP炒冷饭的一众恐怖片来看，这部完成度还算可以。至少以悬疑部分支撑起来的前半段算是半部好戏。
伏地魔和奇洛大呼内行！最后结局还是有点意思
电影没什么逻辑，叙事逻辑可以跟《蜘蛛侠：英雄无归》比烂，一开始教美国小姐学会使用她的超能力不就好了吗？特效有些地方太粗糙了，好在法系打斗够炫酷。福卷两鬓白发造型，终于觉得他好有魅力。旺达的确是美强惨，电视剧明明好好地收尾了，这部一上来就黑化了？
整體都可以，我喜歡的旺達終於可以出場，她真的是復仇者聯盟最強勁一個英雄
这场线上演唱会非常地成功，即使我一边复习一边听也觉得十分舒适。尤其喜欢其中的动画场景，虽然稍微有点丑，但是真的很可爱！
曾经拥有一个巨大畸胎瘤的我看完陷入沉思，当医生跟我说拿出来的东西有牙齿有头发，我立刻觉得不那么孤单了(重点非常错)。片子就一般，有点像刚出道的温。
前半段“鬼屋”的调度如同温子仁前作，运镜的流畅度，干净利落的长镜头，一如既往地稳。后半程较以往温子仁电影有了极大不同，血腥，怪物，虐杀，足够酣畅淋漓，好似«阴风阵阵»«驱魔人»，加上创新似的较多中远景镜头和电子音乐，让整部影片既复古又前卫。
一星给视效设计，一星给本尼，一星给旺达，剧情人物塑造稀烂，还我WV旺达
还是失望比较多，预告片饼画的很大，也有可能是看解析看太多期望太高，这就是一部简简单单的巫师组的沾点恐怖元素的老套英雄片
恐怖片还要用科学来解释，解释的又那么牵强。
P：彩蛋的 塞隆 ，就是梦魇的女儿吧！
二十年前，某研究室一怪胎逃，今，女主几次怀孕均流产，这回她小心翼翼，却与夫生隙，夫下楼拿药，女主反锁房门，夫楼下被怪物杀，女主醒来，贝枕有血，下楼，受怪袭，捡一命，怪找当年研究室医生报仇，其杀人时女主总觉后脑勺隐痛，且可于幻觉中见现场，凶手二次行凶后，女主于幻觉中见其脸，去警局报案，见女主供的凶手貌，一女警不信， 女主接怪电话，可说其名，女主问母，母言是幼时幻想，男警查出还有个医生，怪赶去，待男警去，医生已亡，女主生母楼上落，重伤入院，隔楼有怪之衣与凶器，警疑皆女主为，女主说不是，怪来电与警谈，妹去查女主身世，原，女主背有连体婴，其后长大，医切之，脑留于女主脑，怪用己意控女主，监狱大杀，女主与男女警斗，二人不敌，怪欲控女主杀妹与母，女主用己意胜怪。
毕竟看招牌，几乎不相信温子仁拍出一个这么愣的故事。
越来越无聊了。。。除了中间光照会和旺达杀穿的那段，其他真的很无聊。
看一个20岁的姑娘唱出“I’m in love with my future, can’t wait to see her”和“Things I once enjoyed, just keep me employed now. Things I’m longing for, someday I will be bored of.”觉得很感动。但是又很快清醒地知道，或许她在写下这些句子是发自真诚的相信，但是我看到的只是一场精心策划的表演。这丝毫不是批评她，只是我们都以为我们被媒介连接，而其实我们被媒介割裂。影片中的动画在寻找自己欣赏自己，很直白地符合这张专辑的立意，只是这个洛杉矶这个地方确实关系不大吧。
整部电影从头打到结尾，一直在打架，特效都快溢出屏幕了，卡玛泰姬的分镜处理不错，光照会的分镜是谁画的，建议开除😅
设定和手法清新脱俗，由经典的“温氏开场”快速切换到类怪兽片和悬疑的新鲜配方，转场特效、动作设计和音乐都可谓“潮”到飞起。最大不满是赤裸裸为了续集或宇宙的结局设计，女主若能最后抱着大爱之心如那些和反派同归于尽的角色一样直接给自己脑袋上来一枪，才是符合这片后期血包量的常规结局。然而将屠了整个西雅图警局的BOSS关押起来而不是就地处决，加上低级的彩蛋设计，情绪得不到释放、仓促、不合伦理。另外，可能因为我个人First Impressions情节很重，越到后期越甩不开《JOJO黄金之风》和《哈利波特》的反派印象。
如果设计成真是一个恶魔，会不会更吸引人一点呢
对于恐怖片来说，还不错了，不是单纯的扮鬼吓人那种
