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'.

这算正能量恐怖片吧
校园霸凌情节似乎存在意义不大，Max存在意义也不大，感觉是为了填满分钟而存在的情节 @ AMC Bay Terrace
芬尼之所以能成功，是因为他站在了巨人的肩膀上。质量还不错，起码设定很新奇，故事该有的波折也有了，前面铺垫有点长，而且很多东西很多余。恐怖其实就一两个镜头，R级也就一两个镜头，看着还挺过瘾的。
导演这次发挥的不错，剧情还是稍微有一点点乱。以前没事 现在看囚禁电影感觉很压抑 总联想要是被锁上十几二十年 生下七八个孩子 多绝望得
在觀感上，除了些許jump scare，更像是有驚悚元素的劇情片，骨子里是在講原生家庭中的暴力與創傷的傳遞。
我以为结尾会有什么精彩的反转 没想到真就简单的离谱 有很多剧情你以为有什么用 结果啥用没有
有那么些无聊 中段很明显在节奏上断篇了 就很像开个腾讯会议拉一桌给男主培训培训快点逃走

4分。面具杀手绑小孩，妹妹靠梦境找凶手地址，哥哥靠通灵拿逃生攻略，最后靠蛮力逃出生天，就这。
kids helping kids。但剧情设置太简陋，电话的来源、梦的来源、鬼魂的来源，这些统统都没说，全靠架空的设定盲目地推剧情。只有几处有jump scare，恐怖不算，只能算个惊悚片。反派形象塑造浅薄无力。
强设定➕弱节奏，让故事有点飘忽，还有看起来似乎没什么必要的亲子关系设定，以及结尾的各种突变，比如Fenn的战斗力，Grabber的心态，父亲的忏悔等等。
就，带点惊悚要素的儿童冒险剧，一点都不恐怖，平平淡淡比较无聊。不过伊桑霍克饰演的反派是真的好，发尾还染了白色，很有细节，造型面具也非常棒，对儿童冒险剧来说刚刚好。裸着上半身带着皮带等小孩走上来我真的笑死。伊桑霍克的眼睛真的好美，闪亮亮的
少年在五名受害儿童帮助下打败了恶人。各方面都比较平，缺乏高潮，不少细节交代不到位。选伊桑霍克演“掳童犯”真是浪费演员

妹妹好好啊（有几个配角造型居然跟《怪奇物语》一模一样
被囚男孩的怪奇物语与绝地反杀，一名粗口萝莉和半打逃命少年“血灵灵”的终极将军局。经过几个回合的读档求生后，终于正面单挑魔王，猛推一针肾上腺素来收尾，结局大快人心。还是挺解压挺爽的，有消遣到。
复古的风格，淡淡的惊悚，前面的铺垫在结尾一气呵成。
前面还可以，我还以为发现了宝藏电影，到了后面无语，一句话，不是我想象的那么好！
还行吧，就是这个通灵电话机的设定有点摸不着头发，几个小演员都挺像样的，反派的背景也交代的模模糊糊，当普通的jump scare来看的话就会有更多惊喜
还是非常满意的😊，刚刚好的一部电影哈哈哈哈
