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'.

如果结局是不成功我觉得更好，世界上哪有那么多奇迹
故事情节比较简单，但很感人，战争场面很燃，致敬人民英雄志愿军！
有些情节太离谱，坦克对射又来了，步兵上去开坦克还能如此娴熟操作根本不可能。
票价太贵了，没看，就想打分。这类电影就该狠狠五星。
后半段让人在电影院狂哭不止…整个电影的叙事都非常让人感到舒适，一些小小的笑点也恰到好处。描述小人物的故事，重在细节，描绘出了一个年轻人的创业沉浮，其实也是在描绘每个人的浮浮沉沉。易烊千玺的演技我已经愿称一句“老戏骨”了，各种隐忍、挫败、倔强表现的淋漓尽致，爆发力足够好，演的也足够正确。
导演水平不行
有笑有泪！春节合家欢剧！
就是结尾突然戛然而止
就是有点好哭
开年文牧野+易烊千玺就给了个大大的惊喜！！！
新年第一部戏看了《奇迹》希望来年也能像他们一样创造属于自己的奇迹，表扬下易烊千玺，真的是演什么像什么，以后他的电影一定会去看的！
带着长辈们去看的，给她们看破防了，我觉得这电影就做到了……很真实很让人有共鸣
文牧野是不是考虑大过年的结尾尽量喜庆点？通过质检已经很治愈了，后续的两年合约成为ceo人人大美满就有些强行成功了。 我太喜欢章宇了
当然缺点也很明显，三个导演的拍片风格有点互相抢的意思，能看出些许的割裂感，有些特效场面不知道是什么原因充满了塑料感，但是总的来说，这已经是中国电影工业目前能拍出来的最好的战争片了，强烈推荐电影院里观看，能看IMAX版本的就更好了。
搞笑 温暖 激情满满 片尾曲好好听啊！！！斗志昂扬唱起来
地点深圳，下午三点的动车，应该不少吧，你能猜到是哪一辆？而且深圳肯定不只一个火车站，你连是哪个火车站都猜不到吧。
为抗美援朝奋斗过的英雄致敬！就电影层面来说，战斗场面很大气，但剧情略显虎头蛇尾，3小时的片长，前中后三部分的分部不够均衡。
整部电影像极了领导老板曾经给我们画过的大饼：虽然现在工资都不能按时发放，但股权激励、业绩指数级增长、火箭提拔，都是你们的，六年之后，走上人生巅峰，于是我们啃着手里的窝窝头，想着那鸡汤，很美，很鲜，那大饼，又大，又圆
中规中矩 但是这种题材的看多了 感觉国内拍摄风格都有一些类似
好看的，虽然是从一开始就能知道结局的电影，但是依然很精彩
