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'.

有多久没看到兰晓龙的编剧作品就有多期待《长津湖》，真的完全出乎意料的满意！整体故事相当完整，每个角色的线都很丰满。伍千里，伍万里，余从戎，谈子为，梅生，雷睢生，平河……少见的战争片能让我记住每个角色的名字，既文雅又饱含着期待和寓意。而且演员与角色契合度堪称完美，从不同角度呈现了他们为什么是最可爱的人，把一个连队的生命力表现得淋漓尽致。最让人关注的战争场面，是实打实的震撼，战场身临其境的特效超级棒，三个导演有在互相补足，贡献了超强搭配。IMAX首选，萎靡了一年的电影院，终于要迎来燃炸的国庆档！
还蛮喜欢的。文本内容很丰富，调度稍逊。还是那句话，当某个社会事件只能通过电影故事片来讲述的时候，说明这个国家的媒体已经死了【6.5】
我们是被发现了吗
长津湖确实是长了点，希望未来水门桥不要太水。
战争场面震撼我妈，叹为观止，看完后好想哭，伍千里拿出那个记录牺牲的战士们的小本本的时候我真的哭到泪崩
“《长津湖》最好的彩蛋，便是今日繁荣昌盛的祖国”
真正的长津湖战役放在最后没几分钟，前面手撕美国鬼子拍俩个多小时；
这导演绝了！陈凯歌＋徐克 演员也是实力派 都是有演技有拼劲的 电影值得一看
山河已无恙，光影敬英雄。如果你看完电影，你就会知道，这绝不是电影宣传的一句空话。无论是和平年代的老兵，还是那场战役的亲历者，都告诉我们，这部电影值得去看。
长津湖确实是长了点，希望未来水门桥不要太水。
家里老人参加过抗美援朝，小时候就常听那时候的故事，听说拍了相关的电影，一直很期待，趁着假期去贡献了一下票房，整场看下来，说实话有点失望，篇幅真的太长了，看下来好累，关键剧情撑不起来这个时长，衔接的不够好，可能是我期望太高了吧。
还行,有点拖沓,电影想表达的故事算说清楚了,可以看
再都说一下，扬名立万。
有这么一群人，他们不是一寸也没挪动过，却是生生克制住了摇晃，守住了自己内心的“阵地”。
比较惊喜的点是银幕内外的互动，戏中戏的模式，给了很多可解读的空间。
但讲故事手法太生硬直白。没有《八佰》《敦刻尔克》让人深思，也没有《悬崖之上》扣人心弦，特别是最后欧豪客串的太突然，明显是来送人头。说是耗资13亿大制作，但顶多在特效上算是高配版《金刚川》。题材挺好，但编剧、剪辑还可以做到更好。
这就是长津湖战役，我们的先辈与当时美军各方面的悬殊差距，看到雷爸喊疼说不要留下他自己最后死去的片段时，更深刻的感受了什么是前仆后继，电影或精彩或激烈或好笑的片段很多，但让我始终紧张和恐慌的，是那未休止的枪炮声和美军飞机的呜呜声，试想下我只是坐在影院里听声音就对炮弹爆炸、美机不时的轰炸而惊慌和害怕，揪着的心从未放下，那当年那些踏上战场，真真切切面对战争的祖祖辈辈们又该有怎样怎样怎样我们想象不到的经历和感受。
战争场面震撼我妈，叹为观止，看完后好想哭，伍千里拿出那个记录牺牲的战士们的小本本的时候我真的哭到泪崩
总体来讲，算是合格，多给的一星是给吴京的
感谢影协点映，
