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'.

以前未做父母之前我可能看不下这种看似很离谱的震碎三观的电影我。但是当自己有了孩子，我会反思自己，如果是我的孩子犯了严重的错误，我是不是也会一样包庇
看完了，女主从《韩公主》后就很好感了，这部里面男主更出彩。
意外的精彩，故事节奏、视觉效果、解密过程都没掉链子，看完以后有一种久违的畅快感，当然，冷静一想剧本漏洞也存在，故事进程也有点飞快，但是作为院线商业电影，肯定是及格以上的。
镜头 剪辑 配乐都不错，两个女主很漂亮很般配了拍的非常唯美，就是剧情过于青春疼痛了。无论如何，对一个女同说你永远是我最好的朋友并请她当伴娘都是杀人诛心
本来对这部电影还是蛮期待的，但是看过之后又觉得缺少一些能够激发情绪高涨的点。除了结尾的反转，前面的部分基本上没有太多的惊喜。
想给三星半
就算情节其实很老套，可大概我就是喜欢这种拉拉青春疼痛文学吧呜呜呜…
是我喜欢的类型。六月日记＋母亲。结局很黑暗。哎。女老师是电影韩公主的女主。
没看过原著的我和看过原著的老公都看的很开心。剧情挺流畅的，完成度也挺不错的，部分改动也还算合理，主题还是中国古代文化，有这种水平我已经觉得非常难得了。
在电影院看了一期《极限挑战宝藏行》。基本上是照着《国家宝藏》来的跑团游戏，不难看，也没啥意思，一部迟到了10年的娱乐片，中规中矩到不像郭子健的作品，喜剧桥段完全游离于剧情之外，葛大爷再出彩都是一个情节设置中的败笔，不过肯定比拖沓无聊难看的电视剧版好很多。看的第三个马伯庸小说改编的影视作品了，就觉得，他的故事包装很炫，内在屁也没有，没意思。
拍得太差了 好久没有这样坐立不安 想提前离场的情况 不但没有一丝惊喜 反而连传统盗墓悬疑的套路都没拍出来 节奏转折又切的稀碎 更离谱的是没有任何视觉奇观 就这片子 真花不了俩钱 看完就明白它为什么跳档这么多次了 因为他们自己心里也没底
点映场，比预想的好，雷佳音和辛芷蕾演技在线，葛大爷自不用说，虽然是推动情节的配角，但又是给影片增加笑料的主力，里边关于古董专业的部分看着很过瘾，虽然外行看热闹，但是情节设置精彩，尤其开始许、药俩人的那场对决一开始就给影片走向定下了基调，虽然两个多小时片长，但是节奏紧凑不拖沓，观影体验非常棒。

逻辑有问题，李先表现拉胯，总体来说一般般。
解谜游戏更好玩一点
果然是改编霓虹的剧本，这暗黑系无辜最恶者感，不过改在同样霸凌问题严重的KR一点不违和。影帝演技细节还是很到位的，不过女主教师对手戏感觉有点撑不起来（所以及格以上，离好片还差口气）其实出场人物除了妈妈外应该是全员恶人了，所谓的正义放在私利的天平上谁都没法站稳，开头办公室见面场景真的还是舞台剧感太重了。另外边看边想吐槽，这么重要的“勒索证据”，按人性本恶就该留着副本，都这么老实说灭就灭了。
阵容还是很优秀的，就是基调莫名其妙，结局很无语，整部都在说人性的恶，没有警示意义
整体剧情和《美丽的世界》有点像，最后一次反转让人窒息
很狗血还是没忍住在最后结婚一幕哭成狗（ps女主有些角度太像朱姐
