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'.

电影院打发时间挺好的呀（纪念2022年五一长假
1亿多刀的成本，真的不是国内外公司联手在洗钱吗？
只是想看看月球到底咋陨落的，没想到这剧情似乎已经被编剧放弃了，只需要看看大场面就可以了。不得不说，感觉里面杂糅了各种经典科幻，却又因为不是第一次太俗套了。山姆虽然可爱，但在这里太不讨喜了，感觉整体逻辑比流浪地球还糟糕……场面还没流浪地球精致……
还行，虽然bug多，但很多技术细节展示吊打现在许多所谓科幻片了，节奏也不错
回归到了喜剧风格还是很好看的，比电视剧的后半段要有意思多了。
这多好啊，反转接连不穷的喜剧。瞧不起赘婿的二少爷竟成赘婿，小丑竟是我自己。
电影真的非常好看，超出预期地好看。细节转折很多，所有角色都很讨喜，节奏也不错，画面干净漂亮，笑点密集轻松搞笑，底色也表现的很好，尤其结局，没有糊弄观众。

全程快进键十分钟看完都嫌它浪费我时间。
教科书级别的好莱坞科幻大烂片，剧情老套、角色老套、设定老套，艾默里奇老了
本来以为会是2012的升级版，结果唯一亮点是权利游戏的山姆担任男配角。前一个小时候几乎没有毁天灭地的特效场面，后面又硬扯什么人工智能的烂梗，既不是灾难片也不是科幻片，特效场面严重不足，这片子拍摄成本1.5亿美元绝对是吹牛逼，太失望了！2012果然还是无法超越啊。
这脑洞也儿戏得过于蠢了吧，灾难片场景越来越退步了，不仅特效廉价而且几乎看不见一个灾难片里常见的路人群众，除了主角团两家子外也就两个蠢贼。至于进入月球地洞后简直是科幻电影的超级灾难，如果说前半部分还可以算做廉价特效级别灾难片，后半部分简直是科幻电影俗套刻奇场景大集合的蠢破天的雷人灾难，上亿美金预算的电影就不会找几个靠谱的场景设计师吗，几十亿年跨星际文明级别的场景就这么廉价吗，甚至出现了星球大战级别的舰队火炮
最後的部分還好一點，前面真的不如看後天，2012... 月球設定還蠻有意思的，內部的設計加分了。但是！這部分剪輯太碎很影響觀感。整體角色塑造太平，換誰演都可。
飞船从水里起飞的场面挺经典的。其实我们国家也可以多拍点这种类型的电影。我们也来拯救拯救地球。在非洲援建一些电影院，每年规定必须放映规定数量的中国电影。感觉有戏。
科幻+灾难的两者融合其实还可以了，地球外科幻片，地球内灾难片，影片整体也有不错的看点：假设月球撞地球的众多理论一一可视化展现，也许有些逻辑经不起推敲，但这种片子已经可以了，不过与导演之前的作品《2012》和《后天》比较，略显平庸。
主角团进入月球后的情节可以一看，仅此而已。
今年院线最差。这剧情不是人能想出来的，谁能想到月球陨落竟和星球大战扯到一起。本来抱着看《2012》和《后天》的期待来看的，没想到成片是个四不像，前半段灾难片，后半段科幻片，你说它是两个电影我都信，更可笑的是很多很降智的剧情。看完我真是满脸问号，感觉像坐了两小时的牢。5分全给特效，故事你真不配！
气氛挺到位，但是老土是真的老土，看到后面我的灵魂已然麻木，这么大个科技怪物，只要一个炸弹就能解决一切，然后地球就给保下来了。中间还穿插着各种令人抠脚的爱情兄弟情父子情，并且对这些感情的诠释跟几十年前相比毫无进步。台词是真的烂，为什么能有这么多美国冷笑话，导致看的时候总感觉有乌鸦从我头上飞过。
2.75吧…… 剧情脑洞开的是真大，为了天朝金主爸爸加的中文部分真的是一点也不刻意呢🙃 一起看的朋友的review: You have to break a lot of your believes to be able to enjoy this movie. 😅
