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'.

月球让地球千疮百孔，但却善解人意的缝合了家庭裂缝；AI摧毁了远超人类的高科技文明，但却被人类发射射线弄死。
本来可以做到一爽到底的电影，但因为主角是罪犯，非要加一些走心的东西强洗白，狗血到无法忽略。
我就来说一句：Patrick Wilson真的辣
瞎几把乱编，但其实看到后段够热闹还蛮享受的😆
？脑洞挺大，月球的设计挺有意思，但完成度不够好，节奏混乱。
到底是什么可以让这些大牌演员演这么烂的剧本？
文戏和节奏一塌糊涂，因为知道艾默里奇的文戏就是垮主要看特效，我强撑到一小时再也撑不下去。老头啊老头，2012收官不是挺好的么，搞这部出来砸招牌干什么？还是说他们给的太多了？
剧情就是套公式一样，和之前的灾难片简直一模一样。大场面嘛，反正就是各种特效，也疲劳了。甚至月球和地球引力这种点子也没整出一个特别惊艳的好活。
杰克·吉伦哈尔没法想象得难看成什么样
好蠢啊，可是再蠢，国内院线也只能看这样的片子，真是悲哀！
看不下去了，剧情太烂，夜晚的几场戏特效也假，抠图痕迹明显。
不能原谅漫威式搞笑。怎的，好莱坞电影无论类型现在都流行时不时来一句段子？严重影响观感。尽管长达两小时，电影的节奏仍显跳脱，还存在大段废片。还不如smart一点聚焦于特效&灾难&动作&展开后的世界观（还蛮新颖的，在电影里。）可惜。不过还是有一些真诚之处，勉强给个三星吧。
美国平民英雄再一次领先美国政府拯救了世界。这部片放在20年前可能会火的一塌糊涂，但是在如今观众连3D都厌恶的时代，实在有点乏善可陈。科幻片的想象力也只能靠灭世的灾难场景来充当卖点。那一套外星创世说，感觉就像在看什么抖音未解之谜一样，而且那唯一一点的科幻剧情时长，还就跟2个抖音短视频差不多。于文文这个角色的加入真的可有可无，要说不是带资进组我都不信，整个角色换成白人或黑人、或干脆整个删掉，对剧情发展和人物成长毫无影响。就连开口说那几句中文都看不懂有啥意义。不管是对付外星人、还是自然灾难，美国人拯救世界的方法只有炸炸炸，而且关键时刻一定是平民舍己为人，而不是公职人员。最后感叹，哈利贝瑞这么多年了还是这么好看。
居然比想象中要好，赛车追逐戏还有些新意，远比速度与激情有看点。镜头虽然新颖，无人机360度视角，但确实太晃了，小屏幕看都有些难受。导演风格强烈，女主是典型的导演选角类型。文戏居然也没有拉胯，最后竟然有些小感动。劫匪救护车上帮助做手术挺有想法，作为一个为了给女儿手术筹钱治病的父亲，可以理解。但抢了37次银行的世家子弟每次计划都这么野蛮草率（但运气又特别好）的吗？杰克还去去大学学犯罪学。但还是太长了，有些拖沓。
全篇印象最深刻的一幕https://www.douban.com/doubanapp/dispatch?uri=/forum_topic/637219070/
不得不说还是美国人“脑洞大”，月球内部的CG还是很美，但NASA清洁工完爆各路数学家物理学家天文学家，黑灯瞎火的飞月球，把航天飞船开成了速度与激情，外星人和AI就更是一言难尽。以及，于文文是来干啥的？
也还行吧，动作戏自然是卖拷贝的强项，但是剧情还是较弱。
地球那部分还没有流浪星球拍的好。其实玄幻的脑洞我还挺欣赏勇气的。为月球的迫近加分！
哥俩一个比一个暴躁，嗓门一个赛一个大，吵得脑袋疼。剧情无力吐槽，也就爆炸追车看个热闹。
剧情很烂，我从来没看过一部电影的支线故事会如此多余：男主及女主儿子的那条故事线，你哪怕把它删掉都会让整部电影看起来舒服很多。
