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'.

你究竟为何而战
但其他方面都不错，特别画面感很好，而且正常刀看着比逆刃舒服多了
其实这么多部电影相同的动作设计打打杀杀已经看得腻了，但追忆篇的故事仍然是最吸引我的，这大概就是走心和走肾始终不同
作为系列最后一部 比倒数第二部先看了 片尾和第一部片头衔接上 这里的感触明显不同
2 个没想到，日本电影的武戏这么精彩！不是好莱坞英雄成长路数的编剧也能这么燃！可惜女主没选好……当然表演是有的，就是脸……
浪客剑心动画我只喜欢追忆篇，而且看完后久久不能忘怀的震撼（tv版动画不喜欢），也是至今不管是动漫还是小说唯一能接受结局be的一部作品；电影真人版看完追忆篇后，同样觉得是浪客剑心真人版中拍的最好的一部，不管是剧情还是画面、节奏、打斗等，当然还有女主，说实在电影版真讨厌武井咲演的女主，又丑又没演技还是个面瘫花瓶，最主要是和佐藤健演的剑心完全没有cp感，一丁点都不配，看到她就快进实在受不了，这也给整部电影拉低很多质量（得亏电影版这女主剧情篇幅不算多，反正一出来我就出戏），所以追忆篇的村花出来一对比瞬间舒服很多，而且和佐藤健的剑心cp感挺可以（虽然村花我也觉得是面瘫，但近两年演技有了进步），而且长相比起武井咲又黑又柴又面瘫的脸来说顺眼太多，追忆篇真人版改编的挺好（就是结尾没有动画利落），继续二刷
有村架纯演的雪代巴，有些惊艳，但是怎么说呢，存在感稍微有些……僵硬，而且没有笑过，纯悲剧的女人，甚至不如西门吹雪的妻子孙秀青。
女主演的很努力,但无奈外形太稚嫩艳丽,而剑心又太老...于是就失掉了姐弟的感觉.
剧情非常简单？因为女人少年软弱了又振作了？！全片可以说就是一个女人带来的改变。村姑发挥余地太小。画面没得说，打斗过瘾，唯美也不错。岛国就是这样守护啊，爱人啊什么的路子……都是为了各自为了生存罢了，哪有那么多伟光正。
新选组这装束看着跟全真派道士似的（。
搁这拍古装美少年壁纸吧，把一部动作漫改活生生拍成了睡片。它实在太拖了，又极其的俗套和无聊。谷恒健治的武术设计倒也有让人眼前一亮的时候，可惜没血浆的加持，依旧也是抵不过眼皮在打架。
啊啊啊啊，终于看完了所有《浪客剑心》的大电影了。这个回忆篇恰好作为一个终结，结束了这个面颊带有十字的浪客的故事。整个系列来看，真的精彩。这个回忆篇来讲，也是一个很好的完结，虽然很多情节之前都已经出现过。
国乱之际，剑心为开创新时代变成刽子手，没看过原漫，一腔热情沦为工具的命运不知会否有变。追忆篇讲述剑心脸上十字疤的因缘由来，了解后觉得有些悲凉讽刺，这是人生体验也是命运捉弄。
其实很一般，但是我太喜欢追忆篇了，能还原一些场景都很激动
本来可以给三星 这一星扣给佐藤健 因为明明最该有少年感的一部thebeginning 他偏偏要演成一个面瘫 还有持续了好几部的像鬼魂飘儿似的走路姿势我终于忍不了了……再加上村花没有清冷御姐风并且两人没有cp感 我看到51分钟宣布弃了 毕竟这一部也只是追忆篇了
开始就是结束。三星半。漫改天花板，还是差点意思，但是比上一部好太多
剧情就不说了，太烂了。但拔刀斋时期的还原度真的绝了，砂糖还原了剑心的脆弱、狂气和美感。唯一的遗憾在于村花确实不适合雪代巴，要是换成苍井优就选角完美了。masa看起来太幼了也不太适合未婚夫其实。。。
系列最佳，毋庸置疑。虽然细节把控方面不如ova，少了些许诗意，但是很好地抓住了原著精髓，能做到最好的方面，大部分也都做到了。
偏黑色调代表绯村的迷惘，皑皑白雪封存剑心的温热。
人诛篇剧透甚至重复利用这部的镜头，剧情丧失。完结篇拍的非常非常慢，巴的感情倒是全拍出来，显得前三部的薰完全炮灰女主。五部马拉松完觉得动作武打完美，日本剑戟片回潮。但叙事连起来后简直颠三倒四，在几乎最优的选角下没给演员多少发挥的空间。
