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'.

“奇怪国家”这个设定，在电影里形同虚设，尤其对数学家这个人物并没有产生什么和其他人截然不同的影响，几处反映都蜻蜓点水，有点为了贴题而刻意架构有关情节的意思。整体没有什么惊喜。
不喜欢这个主题和故事，小蜘蛛跳求偶舞唯一亮点
特别无语 整个剧情毫无新意 即便是猜箱子也是无聊到底 既然要说到ggad还藏着掖着，跟那儿打哑谜，还不如都拍出来然后我们直接资源见。大卫耶茨是不是可以解雇了？剧情这么烂连下一部也悬了。
也许哈利波特的影迷会喜欢吧，电影设定与09的《异能》几乎一模一样，反派能预示未来，正派就混乱视听，最后的双胞胎麒麟将结果公之于众。ps：爱财的嗅嗅和拟生的小雀斑真让人喜欢
太好看了！！！真的超级超级可爱 😻，只要有可爱就够了，而且超级搞笑，完全笑到停不下来，最后还有Mad Max😂。澳洲真的大毒物奇多，而且天下奇毒。这个动物园原型貌似离我住的地方很近，但是我还从来没去过，我也从来没有见过考拉，汗～～～听说考拉真的很mean，主要是因为桉叶有毒
怎么讲。。第一部看了，感觉挺无聊。然后二压根没看。不是哈利波特粉丝。为啥来看三呢？因为电影院实在没啥好看的了。只是想进来看看。至少这也是一部全球同步上映的电影，这年头不容易了😂😂 又是纳粹故事，眼角一滴泪，摸心脏”谁还会爱你”土味情话啥的还是有点吓到。很多情节都扣不上。就糊弄过去了。都不重要了。本来也知道不怎么地😂😂 只是进来感受一下全球化的余温😂
我总是在想，要是邓布利多没有这么伟大，魔法世界会不会被另一个人拯救？要是邓布利多没有这么伟大，他会不会爱自己更久一点，愧疚感对他的折磨会更轻一点？会不会在将爱割下前，可以给自己犹豫的片刻，在将爱割下后，可以给自己痛哭的时间？可是，这就不是邓布利多了。邓布利多如此至善至纯，他生来便是伟大的人，他注定扛起自身命运的悲剧，为整个世界的人在下雨的时候撑起一把伞。
这个系列的价值真的是快榨干了，人物无聊 ，节奏缓慢，故事简陋，所有的轻松部分看起来刻意尴尬，非要等到没人看票房雪崩了才不拍吗，真是可惜了 。
还好有崔岷植可信的表现，当代韩影“民粹英雄”思潮的影响在结局里展示得太典型了。很容易联想到《闻香识女人》，但也很乏力很说教。
近几年韩国电影的内核就是统一
实属大地主看不上这些钱
魔法世界也逃不开政治正确。
前半段很可爱，后半段剧本简直一泄千里，泄气的泄。发光的不是黑板上的公式，是崔岷植的眼神。看完想买草莓牛奶。朴炳垠恐惧或恼羞成怒时像一只炸毛的猫。
《马达加斯加》精神续作，土澳旅游宣传片，多处悉尼的彩蛋充满了惊喜。好片推荐，适合带娃观看。
Do you feel that we koalas are a bit shallow? LOL.
看之前还以为是什么奇怪国家
两星还是可爱的嗅嗅还有麒麟拉回来的
如果这个片类比一个剧本杀，就是作者花里胡哨搞了一大堆，你推理了5个小时之后，发现凶手只是拿刀捅了对方，刀还在凶手口袋里搜出来的，然后就开始进入情感环节——我一个很喜欢神奇动物的，来看首映的人建议，别看了，节约生命。
ggad版《再见爱人》，剧情烂得一塌糊涂，小孩子过家家都比这有逻辑，唯一好看的地方只有纽特拟态蝎子舞，也就是说，只有纽特和神奇动物作为真正主角的时候这个故事才真正有魅力。
缺乏对数学这门科学的更深凝练，代替的是一些空洞的概念，错误的问题无法得到正确的答案。自吹自擂的人数学竞赛，凭空出现的黎曼猜想是编剧为了制造剧情冲突的设置。母亲角色的缺位，家庭关系的空白，拙略的闪回，在家空闲可以看看。
