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'.

3。给“宇航员”撸管也是撸管，交大毕业生也可以是屌丝。喜剧就是可以把“美化造神运动”这种垃圾主题包装得无比精致。
沈腾对得起观众对他的期待！
感觉还不错啊，一开始以为我对开心麻花电影笑不出来，没想到真香打脸，前半段笑死我了，尤其是“今天真是元气满满的一天”那句话哈哈哈哈哈。当然了，后半段不太行了，太刻意煽情。感觉沈腾演技真的挺不错，马丽真的挺好看的。
电影值得一看，典型的麻花式电影，有趣的设定+peace&love的主题，还有精彩的视觉呈现，很适合进电影院放松解压。这也是麻花电影总值得期待的“点”所在，幽默又温暖。含腾量很足，沈腾和金刚鼠贡献了最多的笑料，马丽这次的角色比较有反差感，呈现出很不一样的喜剧效果，常远、黄才伦等配角也很亮眼，整体观感不错。
打七分，总体感受是失望的 相比于开心麻花之前爆笑的电影，这电影第一次结合了科技元素，但是脱离开人间场景后，里面的笑点给我感觉是一个个凑起来的，为了搞笑而刻意为之，在影院的我如坐针毡，不知道该笑还是不该笑……影片中多处场景➕音乐不是很匹配的地方看起来非常有违和感，一边看一遍感觉莫名其妙。 前后人物的反转也没有任何的铺垫，比如前面女主理性丢下男主，后面又劝他不去拯救世界；比如前面男主对女主的种种行为接近变态后面二人竟养成了感情？ 人间的场景也塑造的不够全面，给人很刻意的感觉。另外影片当中用的老梗真的很笑不出来啊…… 当然顶流刚子的角色是一种突破，在我看来还是比较加分的
吐了，怎么能这么难看。电影以悲剧和喜剧彼此交错以试图掩饰二者都十分匮乏的事实，在一条自我感动的道路上挥洒廉价的泪水与尴尬的笑声。月球上的个人秀令人窒息而烦躁，银幕上拔高的主旋律卑劣而无耻，这些不堪卒读的故事和影像实在是……难看至极
你把它当成科幻片看，那你肯定不会喜欢他，但如果你把它看成喜剧版《火星救援》，那观感瞬间就上去了。
视听很不错了，首尾的动画很好看，几首配乐很到位，喜剧感拉满，但就还是有挥之不去的舞台剧味道，很抱歉我不是这种麻花味喜剧电影的受众。
舔狗不得house，月球楚门最后还是要做董存瑞啊……视觉团队还挺厉害的，杜杰老师应该是票房最高的DP了～麻花上档次了，有大片的感觉，沈腾是不是贡献了层次最丰富的一次表演？信念感好强啊。不过没觉得太好笑，哭就更哭不出来了，燃还有点燃的，合格暑期大片
3.5期望越大失望越大，披着科幻各种致敬旧梗有点好笑的老麻花片了…
看了50分钟 没一个地方让我笑的。大概就黄子韬好笑一点。。很烂很烂
在“这也太假了这也叫科幻”和“算了吧它是个喜剧不用那么严谨”之间徘徊。男女主人物关系让我想到云天明和程心。
含腾量如此高，如果不排斥开心麻花的小品式电影的观众应该都会看得挺开心的，完整度还不错，但是剧作上也有不少拼凑的痕迹，虽然梗都并不新鲜，但经过麻花式的改编，帅不过三秒的创作套路，基本上都能预知笑点，但是沈腾的喜剧节奏还是把控得不错的，所以观看过程还是挺欢乐的，当然这些都是表演上的，电影层面上依然没有突破；但一个惊喜就是居然不再是一部纯喜剧，用一个科幻的末日故事来包装一个最普世情感，浩瀚宇宙下渺小的普通个体也能燃点希望，刚子飞跃大深坑，以及最后的星环感受到了浪漫，如果导演最后能再克制一点，不煽情过度的话会更好。7.8
改掉了漫画版好多重要的线和经典的笑点，但整体的结构也已经非常不错了
剧情缝合怪，桥段全老梗，表达强煽情，100%含腾率也救不了这片的难看。
果然学好数理化，走遍宇宙也不怕，要学文科的，得跟袋鼠相伴到老了。
独孤月把袋鼠推进返回舱告别的时候，真的有感动到，感觉袋鼠都眼含泪光
非常好的商业类型片，比想象中的还要硬核，是很有含金量的科幻片，喜剧中包含了深层的人文思考

有被笑到，但也没有很好笑，有被感动到，但也没有很感动。
