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'.

居然最后还藏着官方没有公布名字的某位惊喜演员，开心！(海报上没有名字，看到片尾出现了名字才确认真是他)，以及看样子下一部会有阿部宽参演了，期待～
又新出了师父的角色，三代目
马耳他共和国珍宝维纳斯争夺记，一开始有点无聊，最后揭开真相就够味道，还是达子，骗局主要靠情报和人脉，提前布局，胆大心细，请君入瓮，假装内部分裂搞内讧这招早就玩过不知多少遍，达子必胜结局一如既往，都是日剧老面孔，春马结子作为角色依旧起了关键作用。
看个开心，不过失德艺人实在太多了还是很令人不适……
好～多～人～看此系列的标配是，随时准备迎接反转。
所以哈鲁马和结子姐姐都是名字出镜嘛……唉！！凑合看看吧，马耳他风景真不错，实在不想看渣男演好人，给我恶心坏了，减一星。
乏善可陈。不是粉丝所以给2星。进去之前完全没看过原作，发现魔法师的剧情过的如此迅速就意识到估计是有很多前作的粉丝向电影，这都可以理解，但我还是不懂为什么要挑出柜这种剧情拍，真的是俗套又无聊，全程能看的就是男主的脸

这个系列就是你明知会反转，所以怎么反转得精彩才是重点，这部里没太大亮点。有点消费情怀的意思。
这个系列的套路就是不断做时间回溯 到了这一集其实已经很难骗到观众了 哪怕是加上了从各个角色的角度来回溯也是一样拖泥带水的 就是加法加法不断地做加法 另外三浦春马从头到尾也没出现啊
恭喜江口洋介追星大成功！花了几十亿终于加入主角后援团！
所以哈鲁马和结子姐姐都是名字出镜嘛……唉！！凑合看看吧，马耳他风景真不错，实在不想看渣男演好人，给我恶心坏了，减一星。
原来不仅抠渣前夫，有竟然还有东谷大料包在里面占一个主要角色。美女还是去去晦气吧。
有点疲劳，但是就像功课一样，还是会继续支持下去吧。这次的大boss带不动啊，反转都没什么激情。依然怀念Jesse和Star,至少他们还活在电影中啊!
一个其实不太有意思的故事，用一套多视角平行的演绎方法，竟然就变得好看了，所以最牛的还是导演啊。感觉疫情这两年很多演员都有点懈怠了吧，拍戏的时候镜头拉近一看，感觉都保养的不太好啊。唉，这个IP感觉也有点才尽了...
开头是校园少女漫，纯得发指，甜到酣，看人谈恋爱果真是人生一大喜事，不自觉的跟着他们嘴角上扬幸福得发抖。中间集中精力欣赏黑泽的美颜暴击，小凑则可爱的和洋娃娃一样，心也化了！后面的见家长剧情，两位妈妈演技分别炸裂了，虽然一家有些困惑但很快接受和另一家稍微有些抗拒但也被说服有些理想过头不符现实？但也不用所有drama都需要走写实路线，当个“美梦”看看和其不香。
看个开心，不过失德艺人实在太多了还是很令人不适……
彩蛋1是警贼合作亦或杀向欺诈师社团东京本部，彩蛋2是2.5次元音乐剧《鸟兽戏画》再次诈骗成功。
“没有英雄的国家并非不幸，需要英雄的国家才是不幸”。一贯的模式套路只能说还行，否则一个场景多次回顾不免引起反感。江口洋介这次竟然参演了欺骗团牛皮
