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'.

这个拍成电视剧还可以，但是拍成这样的电影就真的太粗制滥造了，情节、演技烂成渣渣，在电影院里边看边翻白眼的那种烂。剧情上也都是烂梗，剃刀边缘+Sisters+加欧容拍过的那个寄生胎电影。还是感叹一下温子仁怎么拍出了个这个东西。
旺达我的宝，太惨了太惨了，从电影虐到TV再从TV虐回电影，漫威美强惨第一人。电影太精彩了，结尾旺达线收的很好，博士和Christian的感情线也很感人，看的很爽
还不错，虽然离奇，但是也给出了比较合理的解释。关于分身，只能理解为正常的那位被困在另一个在大脑中的幻像。
特效不错，但要叫它为惊悚片还是不太行，估计光照会有两个人被秒了要让人唠一辈子
演唱会开的不错嘛，后面的歌曲有点大火的那种
期待更强大的be
温子仁在技术方面当然是毋庸置疑的，打光、色调、构图、场面调度之类制作精良，画面充满了美感。跟以往拍的恐怖片相比在元素上拥有了更多的突破，对着尸体使用了浮夸音乐，加入了身体恐怖以及后半段有特别精彩的砍杀戏。故事的确老套得不行，想表达的亲情在《招魂》和《潜伏》已经足够多了，内涵甚至也没有前面两个丰富，但是能把这种故事包装成这样也的确令人佩服。结尾还是感觉很突兀，把夺回身体所有权这件事弄得太简单了，显得前面在装神弄鬼。
不恐怖的恐怖片才是我能接受的恐怖片类型，寄生双生畸形胎儿的设定，最初在美剧《美国恐怖故事》有相似片段，这部主要将精神分裂的另一面具象化，以及场景转换效果不错。可见，当恐怖导演拥有极高运镜水准时，恐怖片水平不仅限惊吓的低层面。当然此片剧情走向偏俗，文本太弱。
北美东部来打卡. 整部影片整体来说, 泪点十足. 当Strange精心打着领带参加Christine的婚礼; 当Christine问博士 “Are you happy?”; 当得知Wanda所做的一切只是为了和孩子生活在一起; 当女巫质问Strange “你曾用时间宝石做交易, 这次用孩子换全世界的安宁又有何不可”；当女巫说, “我想取她能力, 这样当孩子生病我可以去任何平行时空寻求医治”: 当博士对Christine说 “I love you in every universe!”…
音效师七十分，摄像师五十分，编剧三十分，温子仁零分。
惊喜的是，当一直以为前半段反复的杀人场景和幻想会奠定故事发展方向时，结局“双胞胎”的设定着实惊讶，从“鬼片”变成了悬疑惊悚片，有不错的力度，但可惜在这反转后，依然感觉整部电影充满遗憾，特别是国内版删减的四分钟，整整把最精彩的部分给减了，不过重点商讨的依然是恐惧感和故事性，温子仁在恐怖场景灯光的运用确有大师风范，可在这部电影里也仅限如此，即使加上原版的四分钟，依旧不能强挽匮乏的吓人程度，而在故事性上，前半段实在是勾起不了对电影深思的考虑，太多运用恐怖手段和杀人到场景的过渡，想要一直迷惑观众直到最后的高潮反转，却也丢失很多直观的体验，只会觉得有丝拖沓和逻辑上的漏洞。这也几乎是温子仁少有的难以吓到的恐怖片，但能让这种R级片同时期登上国内市场，也实在是让人感到欣慰和激动啊，希望未来有更多这样的机会
用主流商业片的思路来拍铅黄B级片的下场就是现代技术的过度入侵，空间感一流的调度成功地被人造感十足的布景和CG拉掉价，尽管其间各种无差别杀戮依然能看到温子仁早期的各类邪典恶趣味，可最后拥抱真善美直接泄气—-和soho街一个调性，各种没劲。
比灵媒不好看多了，就知道应该不会那么简单的精神分裂，结尾有点突然
录像＋通灵，还是有招魂系列的影子，刚开始以为是通灵，结果是通脑，悬疑揭开后，灵异的气氛没了，就成了有点B级片血腥暴力，结局的意思还有第二部？感觉不太可。
女主角选的太棒了，不管剧情如何这样的颜值都能打九分了，再加上出乎人意料的剧情发展，只能打满分了。
刺激！都是“目睹异时空之事”，比soho猛多了
再多买两块钱Disney的股票 希望以后这种越来越多
二十年前，某研究室一怪胎逃，今，女主几次怀孕均流产，这回她小心翼翼，却与夫生隙，夫下楼拿药，女主反锁房门，夫楼下被怪物杀，女主醒来，贝枕有血，下楼，受怪袭，捡一命，怪找当年研究室医生报仇，其杀人时女主总觉后脑勺隐痛，且可于幻觉中见现场，凶手二次行凶后，女主于幻觉中见其脸，去警局报案，见女主供的凶手貌，一女警不信， 女主接怪电话，可说其名，女主问母，母言是幼时幻想，男警查出还有个医生，怪赶去，待男警去，医生已亡，女主生母楼上落，重伤入院，隔楼有怪之衣与凶器，警疑皆女主为，女主说不是，怪来电与警谈，妹去查女主身世，原，女主背有连体婴，其后长大，医切之，脑留于女主脑，怪用己意控女主，监狱大杀，女主与男女警斗，二人不敌，怪欲控女主杀妹与母，女主用己意胜怪。
整體都可以，我喜歡的旺達終於可以出場，她真的是復仇者聯盟最強勁一個英雄
以为会像The World's A Little Blurry那样是幕后制作纪录片，没想到就是把专辑从头到尾唱了一遍，连串词都没有😂Therefore I Am全场最佳。全专最爱的Happier Than Ever反而还没有演唱会Live版带劲儿。
