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'.

就是说接近两个小时看累了明白我意思吧 崔宇植赶紧给我安排新电影
以恶制恶，游走灰色地带执法者。真心只是为了欣赏赵镇雄的的演技，剧情什么的很扯淡，只适合韩国，另外本片纯男人戏，导演你是直男吧？
小崔和后备箱的关系就是 他生来就是会被关后备箱然后被拍下让我流鼻血的 韩国人 你们真的很懂😳
翻拍日本的《孤狼之血》，讲真，日版更黑暗更压抑，同时也更有张力，画面比本片也好太多。同样的本子，本片拍得太平庸了。
中间混乱没搞清楚了，首尾来看简单概括就是黑白分明的新人最后知道了这不可行的也要变成灰色了。
有些许随意了，电影的后半段简直垮掉，白瞎了这么多我喜欢的优秀演员。
这个故事很有情怀感，毕竟是郑渊洁的原作改编的嘛～做出来的电影效果也很有年代感，对于学习的批判不知道现在的小孩子是不是能看懂～家长们能不能懂？学习成绩真的不应该是单一的衡量孩子的标准…希望现在的小朋友多看点有这种思辨意义的影视作品…虽然大概是看不懂的吧～
小姑娘真不错，总被我叫做鲁鲁西的鲁西西是最棒的孩子，但是这个故事总感觉走了样呢太脸谱模式化了
小崔演cool guy真的好可爱，剧情很紧凑，小崔和釜山行里面一点都没变老
在灰色地带游走的警察，人设亦正亦邪应该很有魅力的，但是越看越无聊……
有人说。
在郑渊洁超过四十年的创作生涯里，他塑造了几个陪伴几代人成长的著名角色——
断断续续看了一点，很失望：1、皮皮鲁的孩子表演真是很僵化；2、老师什么的都太脸谱化了；3、考试作弊那个设计真是很傻；4、救火时候用衣服挂在绳索上拽着滑下来的设计难道不危险吗？不怕孩子效仿？
2021.5.23 郑渊洁老师我还是挺喜欢的 谁小时候没看过他的皮皮鲁和舒克贝塔啊 但是这个是真的不行 首先基本上的片段都是鲁西西的 你怎么不叫鲁西西总动员啊？然后实在太低幼 不可能有大人喜欢来看的！只适合小学生乌鱼子 里面五年级下的考试居然会关系着进重点中学？？我的天 还有小学压力这么大？怎么可能啊 初中不是按学区分配的？这5个小人的特效是真的不行。。一下就可以看出来是p进去的 还有着火时那个火就更离谱了！很难想象郑渊洁老师居然会同意这样拍电影！简单点说就不是我心中的皮皮鲁和鲁西西。倒是看还发20块红包挺不错的 微博上看到20年就出预告说会上映 居然21年还不是完全版..？
集体作弊，道德绑架，强行煽情。
“我们警察总是站在边界线上，既非黑道，也非白道，只要有民众愿意支持我们，我们就能一直处于灰色地带。然而有时候会有人把我们推向黑道，这就是警察的命运。”警察是为了惩罚比自己更坏的人，这是韩影基于基于人性丑、人性恶、人性不可测的多年实践得出的结论，本片再次强调了这一观点。
5.5吧 大家都算正常发挥 属于一切方面都没惊喜那一类
以暴制暴 以毒攻毒 韩国电影的老路子 但是呈现的过于幼稚和普通。
很简单的童话故事，电影院里的小孩子基本上都能看得懂，大人也能看得进去，只是里面那个“绿茶”小女孩的角色安排有点过了，完全没必要用大人的视角来如此描绘一个小女生。
当白警抓不了坏蛋，当黑警又不是自己的本心，那就做个介于白和黑之间的灰警吧，既能抓比自己更坏的人，又不违背自己的初心，还不错吧？！
