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'.

行，挺有意思的。爱笑会议室里出来的，都不差
就这个预算这样还不错了。挺打脸的，之前觉得自己做营销啥都做过很厉害。但其实都差不多，同样要去分析竞品、搞装修、提升产品力、搞爆款、POSM、搞噱头、价格战、试吃、路演、代言人、薪酬激励方案、人员梯队、损益、压力、超时加班、应付投资人、还有家人的支持、时间管理都不可缺少
还不错啊，故事讲的很完整，演员选的也比较接地气，笑点也自然不尴尬。
好无聊。。换成厕所之王，丝袜之王都可以，感觉丝毫没拍出烧烤的特色。。
挺好看的啊，非常搞笑，剧情逻辑其实也在线啊，豆瓣对这类搞笑国产电影太不友好了，这个分数绝对有点低了，直接拉满～
孙越在片里好惨哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
佳佳还是有底子，毕竟中学时晚上最盼的就是“爱笑兄弟”。时间难回溯，剧作上有些缺失生活味，兴许是走了具备市井名称的另类路线。
在丽枫酒店吃烧烤的时候打开这个电影，结果发现这里面好多恶心的东西，头发丝之类的。没仔细认真看
爷爷这个演员不错诶 其他的就 反正打发时间也不难看 佳佳的作品我个人是觉得都能及格的。
不过欧美有很多优秀的地方，我们要学习。
已经很不错了、再接再厉，本来也没报多大要求，也就图个乐
有的时候只有努力go up 才能有勇气come out
个人觉得把所有段子串在一个故事中完整讲出来，还逗大家一乐就够了。不止于此，它还做出了特殊父子人物关系。尽管故事还有很多bug，但瑕不掩瑜。我喜欢下了功夫的电影，《烧烤之王》做到了。但它不给编剧署名，就让我很不舒服，给一颗星警告下。
5.8少了点吧，最起码不是特别2，认真在拍
其实在网上看看这种烂片还挺好的哈哈哈，有点以前开着电视做其他事的舒适感，可能这才是烂片的正确打开方式！
故事还算完整，下饭乐呵乐呵还不错。
作为爆米花电影挺不错的，收尾也恰到好处。
开始不想老爸太辛苦，到后面要满足老爸的心愿。观念冲突时孝顺不容易啊
迪士尼里程碑意义的作品，逻辑硬伤挺多，但是不影响看着爽啊。
