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'.

还算不错的传记片 有些地方还是挺感人 但趋于平淡 对于残奥冠军后来的生活只字未提 展现了生活的不易 但始终不知出路在哪 很多人穷其一生也没有找到为之热爱的事情 看到对于跑步的激情和热忱 真是一件令人羡慕的事情
戏剧学院戏文系大一独幕剧。剧作犯了所有能犯的常识性错误。
演员真的不容易，演出一个智障真的不错，吴君如真的电影加分！不过剧情方面没有什么出乎意料，很普通。正常应该就是个及格电影，给演技加一星吧
残疾运动员真的需要社会更多关注
优点是多次反转后还把事儿讲明白了，逻辑通顺没把自己绕进去；而且确如导演和制片所说，中国内地是比较缺少这种“封闭空间+多方博弈”的类型故事的（也正因此这个优点才成立）。缺点也比较明显：这个“多方”中除了范伟和窦骁的角色，其他人都塑造得缺乏代入感，都是走过场的工具人。逻辑通顺而工具人太多，就导致这种感觉：这个故事是比较工整，但是它跟我有什么关系呢？
不太行，后半段和张总交易片段还可以，但结尾直接拉胯。女性角色很糟糕，甚至也有污名化外卖员的感觉。
不错的室内犯罪悬疑片，几路人马阴差阳错的聚集在一处，反转一个接着一个，引得我边看边紧张的思考前面的剧情，否则就对照不上了。
5.5/10。合格的商业悬疑片剧本吧，我在想这种本子怎么变得电影化，很难。在电脑上看可以给三星，大荧幕应该两星了。（窦骁好像谢霆锋啊）
剧情大结构挺好的，但细节没认真打磨，小BUG不少，小偷睡着尤其不合情理。
真人真事拍成这样也不易 很难戳到泪点 台词对话太生硬。
这种卖概念的片子拍成20分钟就合适了，其他就没啥必要
很好的故事，剧本比较粗糙，逻辑性差，为了反转而反转，拖沓，前后内容割裂，窦骁的角色是赌王闺女花赌资买的吧，李春来加一星
这么多好评刷的人好尴尬吧……我已经很久没有在电影院有度日如年的感觉了
#2021.135#小剧本，错位剪辑，漏洞百出
可能是有一点点煽情了，但整体来说还是很优秀的，最重要的是能让大家看到这个群体。特别要夸一下年轻演员们，个个都好能演呀。
本片催泪的剧情不多，励志的剧情点到即止，更多的是单纯讲述一个真实的故事，非常值得一看。
果然與預期一樣，有好幾處都忍不住眼淚，可能是因為真人真事的緣故，真的很難不受觸動。沒想到少年演員與青年演員都一樣那麼出色，演得太好了，媽媽也是，真實到讓人都以為他們就是本人。同工同酬、弟弟受冷落發脾氣、做了奧運冠軍家庭條件依然困難、出去做快遞員比人鬧、特殊小孩的特殊成長歷程、如何做一名普通人、媽媽那些或許錯誤的選擇與無條件的付出，都是從很小的細節中表達出不服輸的拼搏精神。殘疾人真的太不容易了，殘疾人的家庭也太不容易了，致敬所有用心努力生活的人。
非常黑色，剧情不错，但是不太喜欢这样的书生气，可能应该更市井气一点的行为和语言，结尾也有点为了满意而满意……
搁五六年前，这种反转再反转，悬疑，密闭空间，小成本黑色幽默，我还觉得新鲜，可是看多了，就真不新鲜了，范伟、窦骁表现是不错，其他演员也很卖力，但掩盖不了剧情硬伤，逻辑也站不住脚，明显一群老戏骨捧刘姓导演，我记得分数会往下掉，个人打6.5分，算给多啦。
感觉像是像盖里奇，但是节奏太慢了，而且有点硬拗反转。莉莉被雕像咋一下就死了，范伟被捅了2刀都没有挂？
