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'.

出乎意料的，还挺好看，3.5星。很多包袱，很多熟悉的喜剧人。说好的二手月季的“死亡摇滚”呢？我就是奔着这个来的！还有说好的孙越跟于谦老师的祝语呢？这都是花了钱的！
几个场面，电影里不如短视频更有笑点，但是个不错的喜剧片
模仿《药神》和《哀乐女子天团》的痕迹有些重了，但原则上还是鼓励这种稍带夸张成分的现实主义题材网大越来越多的。这个故事里牛的角色太不让人信服了，即使是结尾有反转，依然改变不了他是一个真傻子的形象。他可以是一个假傻子，但是不能是一个完全没有想法的真傻子，观众会觉得被欺骗的。另外，长脸演的那个角色存在的必要性其实很弱，他威胁主人公抢活，自己也没有能说服自己的理由，最后也更不会成为主人公团体拯救他的原因，更不会成为主人公心意改变的因素。这些方面做的还是不太牢固和扎实。
原本以为就是一部单纯的喜剧片，崔志佳还是有点东西的。
还行啊，比宋小宝潘长江岳云鹏那些人的电影可强多啦，起码没太硬嘎吱你乐，有的桥段还挺逗的。我知道那些问题，背景那些破败的东北环境没切入一下太可惜了，葬礼这个主题没上升到大环境的表达，也没有深入讲讲东北丧葬文化等等……要求太高啦，网大要能拍出那些来，中国电影就神了。
故事情节太跳跃，可以展开的花钱搞笑着眼点显得力不从心，想要的东西太多，还是侠客梦作祟，最后就哪哪都缺点意思
你搁这烧水呢奥！师徒四人上西天！哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈啊哈！！！
段子和小品拼成的电影，那我觉得我现在其实也能当个编剧。
除了摄影全都乏善可陈。这是《伊万的童年》被黑得最惨的一次。
孙越和梁龙的出场费有点低了，哈哈哈
在我的印象里，喜剧比悲剧难拍，悲剧总是因为它的结局而更让人印象深刻，唤出你的泪水，而喜剧，总感觉嬉皮笑脸，似乎和严肃搭不上边。这当然是刻版印象，但从豆瓣的评分上也可以看出持有这种印象的人还不少。用喜剧的方式来解释一个沉重的话题，用嬉笑的幽默来解释死亡和告别，或许这是东北文化里一个独特的文化现象。他们太苦了，以至于没有这层糖衣这药丸甚至都无法吞下。而观众们却往往只看到这层略有些粗糙的糖衣，却忽视了那层糖衣内部的东西。
能猜到故事走向，伏笔埋得有些简单，有几段挺搞笑，但是整体还是给人东北小品的感觉，最后的升华太硬，还是差点意思
出乎意料的不错诶，虽然有点略俗套，但是剧本设计的不错，演员和表演都挺喜欢的，不错不错
就冲着后半段只能打两星
当长篇小品看的，隔离一个多月心情肯定是不好了，放低期望，放低笑点，超过期待
题材还行，但是拍的中规中矩，既不好笑，也不煽情，佳佳不留根儿还得努力啊，勉勉强强及格，三星鼓励一下吧。
立意很不错
当笑话看合格，当喜剧看比上不足比下有余，有些人非要当正剧看找合理性就太看得起导演了。
蛮真诚的东北喜剧，故事也讲得清清楚楚，价值观也挺正，就是人物情感没有做出来，没有调动起共情感，就很寡淡了。最后既然要反转刀爷赎罪，按道理前面就得建立和刀爷的情感。我也理解东北人那种死要面羞于矫情的性格，但也可以找个爷们儿的感情建立方式。不过作为网大，真不错。
表演也还好，并不矫情，虽然还是有浓浓东北土味，但是国产电影值得肯定和鼓励。
