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'.

我必医治他们背道的病，
勉强及格，剧情老套单薄。看点就是大场面的特效和想象力了，网大有那么多钱烧就是这结果
It’s the pain that brought us to this moment.

咱不能强行要求一部剧情片有动作戏吧？对吧？所以说吧，咱是不是同样也不能要求一部动作片有强剧情呢？尤其是游戏改编的…对吧？能让我怀念强大美好的成龙时代已经很好了。但是荷兰弟的演技…嗯行吧，努力了…
看完了，但是完全不推荐，放在10-15年前还可以，放在当下就是纯纯用来浪费观众时间的。由于游戏和电影的体量差异问题，改编是这类电影最大的问题，本片主要人物动机交代的过于敷衍，主要角色的性格塑造模式化严重、流于表面。细节处理是槽点过多，游戏里不合理的细节，电影中几乎没有改进。除非你是神海IP的死忠粉，就是想看看效果，否则——别看。
星期六凌晨看猪猪侠被荷兰虫气到的部分在《神秘海域》重新被他拉好感度。
女主气质慵懒身材超棒，男主过于完美，哈哈，故事真的有点让人摸不着头脑，但莫名被男主的眼神感动了
虽然是绿幕，但场景设计上还是加分，中间飞机一段致敬游戏，最后“飞船”大战有时空交错的感觉，如果只看第三幕高潮，可以5颗星
本游戏粉虽然觉得剧情无功无过，但是依然觉得内森的选角比较失败。开头看到 PlayStation 的 logo 还是觉得挺激动的，终于有电影了啊。
游戏改编真人电影仿佛天然有壁，电子世界的魅力之一在于脱离庸俗的常理，走哪塌哪的德雷克变成了油腻傻孩子荷兰弟，有情有义苏利文变成了普信流氓沃尔伯格，有够难看的。
一个经历后信仰纯粹，一个经历后放弃信仰又重拾。
这片其实线上播放就可以了。不过在大银幕看肯定比在线上好看，所以多给了半星。寻宝探险类的电影，有《夺宝奇兵》《国家宝藏》，甚至《加勒比海盗》的影子，但没有任何高于这几部电影的亮点。不仅平庸至极，而且节奏也有问题。这种电影节奏应该很快才行，可以调动观众的情绪，让观众兴奋起来。结果这部电影的武戏和文戏的节奏一样慢吞吞，看得差点打瞌睡。逻辑问题也很多，多到没必要举例。看结尾的意思是还有续集，荷兰弟探险宇宙？
花了4块钱在腾讯视频看的，吐槽完毕，没有更多。
最后还来了段《加勒比海盗》。
不知道原著游戏。看片名以为是科幻片，头条的新闻说什么全球票房什么快20亿美元$等，期待很高。结果什么玩意儿？就一夺宝奇兵或者说国家宝藏之类的电影。史蒂芬伯格几十年前的题材！拜托，这都2022年了！
