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'.

整体感觉对话太多，打斗场面太少，缺乏前几部的紧凑感，勉强可以看看，更多的是怀旧加抒情居多，总体评分 2.95
我与华纳不共戴天！
Ps：自我觉醒和吃药觉醒效果是不一样的。龌龊姐妹，快醒过来吧，还我黑4啊[苦涩][苦涩][苦涩][苦涩][苦涩]
不過前提一定要先看過駭客任務，才能明白復活了什麼！
里面那段吐槽很合适，强行拍第四部，把第三部那么好的结局都败坏了。剧本感觉是临时凑的，整部电影凝聚力太弱了。前半段废话连篇，不知道怎么想出来的台词，到了最后一个小时才到正题，显得后半段还没有那么差了。最可怕的是，结局还是开放式的，说不定又是三部曲。
五星怒赞！
按正常理解，2-3星，很失望；按我的另类理解，5星神作。我的长影评近日贴出。
大概是年前最后一部院线片了吧
动作戏之敷衍让人不相信这是导演被逼骗钱都不行……看着蠢爆了，但一看是华纳又觉得正常操作，输麻了
IO不再是Zion,
电影完了，叙事完了，人类只需要看猫猫短视频
已经完整的故事，加这么一出真的是被枪指着硬憋出来的。一开始还算个同人花絮加吐槽，然后就是把第一集剧情重演一遍，剩下一半纯为爱痴狂。格局比前三部小到不知哪里去了，动作场面也难看得不行。算我粉丝给面子吧，求别再搞了。
时代变了，市场不景气了，我相信你能理解为什么我们心爱的母公司华纳兄弟，要决定制作三部曲的续集了吧，他们告诉我，不管有没有我们，他们都会做续集，如果我们不合作，他们会终止我们的合同。（导演值得一星，基努值得一星，其它没有值得一星的了）
前三部没磕的cp这次磕到了。黑客帝国粉丝太挑了，要是终结者创世纪、黑暗命运能有这水平，早就上8分了。Bugs的演员颇有颜丙燕的神韵。
不看比较好。如果非要看 一定要看不花钱的盗版 这样才能对得起他们的诚意。
代码创造的一切看似真实的世界都是虚假，爱情创造的一切看似虚假的情感都是真实。我如何把你从吊舱里拯救，却需要你放任孩子的啼哭，即使那孩子是系统创造的。我如何让你拒绝矩阵里草莓的甜美，而是来到地下种植草莓。系统可以欺骗的味觉和情感，当工蜂从睡梦中的床上弹起，谁在乎他们有过怎样的人生。
沃卓斯基这辈子最成功的是拍了黑客帝国，最失败的是重启了黑客帝国。
华纳，搞垮我DC，搞垮我黑客帝国，不让我德普演格林德沃
看完后，感觉有点失望，很难说到底是什么样的感觉，但绝对不能和完整的前三部融成一个整体。
