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'.

在电影里吐槽自己太多反而就烦了，也罢，反正把人都杀了也可以不用出续集了。
据说很恐怖，因此只看过惊声尖笑。鼓起勇气看最新作品，没想到原作这么拉跨？
那个老警察，面对殺手的情况下，
这也特么的居然是一部粉丝电影，最后的打斗依然是那么弱鸡，真是……毫无追溯前作的动力。而且我居然开头就猜对凶手了……
当然还是没有第一集好看。然后，现在的恐怖片真的在血腥上卷得越来越厉害了
这大概是少数系列重启之后，我依然觉得比较惊喜的作品，我感叹的不仅是原系列导演韦斯身故之后，还能有人重新解构了比较有意思和致敬的故事，更是我在几天之内看到了25年的故事有点唏嘘，包括警长杜威和盖儿的分分合合，另外竟然还能把斯基特拉回来客串算是情怀拉满了，天知道这个系列还会不会继续下去，不过这一作演员们倒是颜值都在线。
用那把刀🔪杀个人真的好费劲啊，不爆头不插腰子的话伤害简直撒撒水嘛
🔪捅人的声音好瘆人，被捅了这么多刀还没死，杀手不是神，还大概率认识的，为什么警方不实时监控这些人，tara黑灯瞎火不好好待着，要出门去看人被杀，姐姐打电话不接，还要开门打座机，偌大的医院没有人，就一个死了的保安，里奇也是废物，倒地了就不起来了，姐姐到了也不帮忙，面具中了三枪也不死，也没人看一下谁是杀手，三个人坐电梯跑的不晓得多快，妹妹竟然还不死，感觉都会复活是这个系列的梗吗，可能要看前几部会更有共鸣。
近几年旧作重启比较好的续集之一了，groupies真的很烦
结局都能猜到，果然片子看多了能做编剧。主要是音效吓人。
有点长，像这种大家都知道主旨就是无差别杀人的电影，超过90分钟就不怎么友好
在戏谑恐怖片与真恐怖之间做了很好的平衡 总在恐怖粉吐槽前先一步且高明吐槽自己 每一个恐怖场景都是谨慎设计过以至于没有任何一人犯蠢 最后尽管刻意 但致敬fandom文化会让很多死粉共鸣吧。最喜爱的是模糊坏人好人边界 最后打反派过于精彩 电影院里掌声一直雷动
2022年第69部：这是恐怖片还是搞笑片啊👍👍
之前主创考虑老三人组死一个，我就猜到会是杜威的，弱鸡的不行，之前都是靠二位女主，果然他一个人行动就迅速领盒饭。中段医院部分要女主二选一，凶手暗示很明显了。新女主写的有点蠢，续集没有老人回归撑不起的。而且里面很多前一秒已经知道法则要聪明，下一秒又光速降智的部分。
最近的重启系列都喜欢找老演员（幸存者）回归，这部也不例外。Billy依然是个大帅比…
评分这么低不至于吧。有点破次元得感觉，把前作角色都致敬了一遍。对于各种恐怖片定律和flag的吐槽反讽也很有趣。血腥成都也不低。就是前作看了忘了，知识面欠缺导致有点跟不上。想重新看一下前四部了。
bug挺多，凶手悬念揭开挺扫兴，但挺刺激的
很没意思的“致敬”片，演杜威的演员估计也烦了，干脆在影片里死了算球。
杜威之死太tm智熄了，本来Scream这个系列除了元电影指涉之外还算是精心设置过悬疑情节的，到了这部就变成了纯胡闹，不过制作上它还算是可圈可点
这是部献给有无数恐怖片观影经历以及看过《惊声尖叫》系列的老观众的佳作。创作者将他们对恐怖片套路的致敬巧妙融入影片中，很多桥段故意欺骗和玩弄有着丰富恐怖片观影经验的观众。本片延续了系列的经典设定：反派都是前作的模仿犯罪者，都是两人，都是主角身边的亲朋好友之一，不是其他恐怖系列里不断复活的反派。每个嫌疑人都在是与不是凶手间来回切换，给观众故布疑阵。影片创作者也借助角色之口说出了当下恐怖片的套路和续作的正确拍法，甚至提前“剧透”。前作主要角色的回归一是为了情怀，二也是为了契合影片创作者对恐怖片系列的理念：续作应该回归最初作，不能胡乱重启炉灶。
