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'.

不能喷蛛丝的荷兰弟比较适合 这个故事也让我想起了七宝奇谋 就是女派都比较丑 另外 给电影打字幕的孩子们 你们就不能把宋体换成黑体吗
标准探险片儿，总体挺粗糙，不过不影响吃爆米花。
一对白人在第三世界乱打，最后一毛钱落不到的故事，西班牙富二代被想象成大傻帽，毕竟西班牙也不是西方第一梯队啊。阴谋论这块不如《达芬奇密码》，解谜环节也很垃圾，两场空中打斗已经没耐心看下去了，好莱坞主流娱乐产品，如果对标我们的《流浪地球》，似乎还真不如我们了。总之就是很土，不如再看《夺宝奇兵》，对于荷兰弟而言，我愿称之为美国张一山
跟国家宝藏差不多的套路，但最后的直升机追逐战可以勉强给个三星。
作为当年ps4几乎人手一个的游戏，我觉得和游戏差远了。我的评价是不值一看，或者只能看一遍……
少了德雷克的拆迁办，没追车剧情，这看着不爽，其他还行，场景还原可以
花了4块钱在腾讯视频看的，吐槽完毕，没有更多。
一个经历后信仰纯粹，一个经历后放弃信仰又重拾。
中规中矩，细节不能究，植入广告一堆。就是看个轻松热闹，有那么点飞鹰计划的感觉
女主是拍的真美，Nicole Kidman加Elle Fanning，接这片真可惜了
玩过3-4两作的老玩家表示不知道电影版在拍摄哪段. 之前以为是兄弟两人的部分,看起来似乎不是,哥哥还没出现,索尼也许是有期待.但是面对这一作的表现,不知道是否还有续集. 其实我很喜欢探宝类的主题,但是这个在情节上真的谈不上凸显了神海系列的任何优点,人物塑造的远不如印第安纳琼斯,劳拉,国家宝藏...
接下来的节奏太沉缓了，严重影响观感。
就真的很平啊，按部就班，完全猜得到的剧情，看的时候没买爆米花真的太难受了
每个情节都差不多猜到了
昨日上线。
不愧是小蜘蛛，來回來去上竄下跳的也就是他了，劇情老老覺得不太合理又說不出哪不合理⋯⋯
NO GOD ! PLEASE NO!一部电影能居然把所有角色，无论正派反派，都塑造的毫无魅力。而且任意两两组合，都不来电！感觉大家只是甲方乙方的关系，一点都不熟！一点都没有火花！Jesus 为什么要把一艘船吊起来飞？两个女性角色，一个看不出野心就是坏坏坏，一个不给个理由就是反复背叛。似乎有点厌女，但是实际上男性角色也没啥高光。希望荷兰弟不要再和矮个大叔纠结身高差了。
我特别喜欢的类型片之一，最近这些年很少出现了。看完想玩游戏 哈哈 可惜要买ps……
解密太过儿戏，另外哥哥朋友的接应也有点脱戏，感觉莫名其妙。场面还是不错的
飞机货舱外的高空集装箱跑酷和直升机吊着宝藏船的生死搏斗还是挺有看点的～这次荷兰弟不靠战衣就能上天跑酷，下海摸金
