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'.

温子仁这次玩好大，一定是拍海王憋坏了，另外女主角演的不错。
很惊喜，很过瘾。推断出了个七八分，但想象力最终还是输给了温子仁。很好的娱乐体验！
后悔没有看未删减版，而是花了6块去了爱奇艺
#致命感应
我一直以为是精神分裂、多重人格。没想到不仅精神上独立，肉体上也实现了部分独立。
设定完整自圆其说，后半段的视觉奇观到位，动作和造型都有创新，相当可以
温子仁又带来了一个“脑洞大开”的恐怖片，在《招魂》《潜伏》系列日落西山的情势下开辟了一个新战场，证明了自己才气依旧。怪物的真实身份虽然不难猜出，但出色的讲故事技巧和氛围营造依然能吸引人看下去。
调低预期之后观影，个人整体观感倒还可以。前面还以为是又一部类似《招魂》《潜伏》的恐怖灵异片，结果后面却变成了类似《准备好了没》的恐怖动作片，拍得还蛮血腥暴力的，也难怪《致命感应》能获得贱熊的青睐。★★★☆ P.S.：女主角的设定莫名让我联想到《火影忍者》里的鸣人（&九尾）。
giao啊！giao！！！温子仁在我心里地位又提升了，依旧能看到《招魂》系列中炉火纯青的惊吓节奏，但在此之上又开辟了一片新的恐怖领域，大搞铅黄爽到离谱不说，温子仁真的是速7海王游了一圈儿，超级英雄般的身体机能配以流畅运镜（就…就有点儿，wait奈特·沙马兰来电话了）崩盘致死的环球暗黑宇宙悔恨的眼泪和羡慕的口水此时此刻汇到了一起
打著恐怖片頭銜我卻看到了跨類型電影，有好幾場戲以温子仁導技成功營造一絲驚悚感，此外電影值得討論的部分就寥寥可數
前半段还是体现了恐怖大师对镜头和角度运用的高超技艺。但同时逻辑bug也挺多的，加百列能力值忽高忽低，高的时候飞檐走壁一个人凭一把刀可以血洗警察局，低的时候连一个刑警也打不过。双警也是智商不在线，女主到最后甚至忽然变成了肿瘤侠…温导是不是和DC那边窜戏了。
三星半 缺点前半部分冗长，沉闷，让人纳闷，如果本片是鬼怪片不够奇特，怪竟有实体感。如果是变态虐杀，不够血腥，很多情节又解释不通。，好在后半部分圆回来了。【剧透】【剧透】【剧透】并非精神分裂，实则双生同体，恶体拥有控制电波超能力。这倒使得全片各种情节都挺合理。恶体摄取女主身体及婴儿营养，致流产，夫家暴女主撞墙唤醒恶体，恶体复仇多年前试图切割他的医生。最终女主唤醒记性，妹告知真相婴儿的多次丧失，重夺回大脑控制。
其实像昆汀的一些片子一样，是一部对老电影的致敬之作，但手法上基本是元素挪用，比如铅黄和柯南伯格的身体恐惧之类的，当然能解读出一些女性主义的内涵，然而对一些关键性戏剧元素缺乏解释，会造成混淆与语意缺失。
作为非典型作者导演，明显感受到温子仁在经历二十多时奇技淫巧血脉喷张的电锯系列，三十多时稳扎稳打别具一格的招魂潜伏系列后，特别是指掌完海王后，陷入了不惑的灯枯油尽：东拼西凑了一堆元素，除了一惊一乍就是血腥……还留了一个自我和解的happy ending
感觉制作很粗糙..少了一种质感. 特别是催眠那一段是我看过最简陋的太随意了。警局杀人那里倒是挺爽的，但是最后非常突兀的就结束了把科警察晾在一边就有点不明不白的。温子仁的作品不应该是这样的 说实话有点失望电影创意还是不错的如果能再打磨一下就好了。 6.5/10
温子仁光影和音效都运用的炉火纯青，这次的动作戏也分外精彩
双面人，可惜前面没发现什么暗示，后面就觉得有点太过了。另外，说支持正版的，不要对观众说，对相关部门说去。别说正版，先弄个全版吧。
看见警察调查文件的时候那一堆U盘，怎么总感觉温子仁又在挖大坑😂
Oh but she's Grace, Tommy's Grace!!! Good enough for me 🥰🥰🥰 George Young that cute guy. // emmm how can you be sure you are not the one locked inside? Tik tok~ goes the clock~ even for the Doctor~ :)
第一次在温子仁的电影里看到了女性暴力美学的淋漓展现。女子拘留所里这一场像机械舞一样的打斗设计得相当精彩。女演员Annabelle长了一张标志性英式美女脸。喜欢这个孪生双胞胎的概念（有点像借用了创世纪人类最初拥有两个灵魂的概念），电影会拍第二部无疑了。
