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'.

唯分数论的可怕在于抹杀了孩子的可能性，成为了分数的奴隶
大火中小人为了救同伴打算牺牲自己这个片段，把六七岁的小孩子感动得哭了，为了不影响别人，默默地趴到我怀里抽泣，灯光亮起还很不好意思，怕我笑她。这就是所有小孩小时候的幻想，跟小小的人做朋友，那么天真，那么单纯，适合小朋友的电影。
【6.8/10】不带着期待，竟然看了进去，后面还湿了眼。我是没读过原著的，仅从电影去评价。带小朋友除了看动画片，这种儿童片其实也是不错的选择。特效是不咋地，有些地方显得假。皮皮鲁和鲁西西小演员选得还是可以的，基本完成了角色，小表情还挺好笑，尤其是皮皮鲁那嘚瑟劲。鲁西西的心路转变是有点尬。反派小女孩、爸爸妈妈这些角色也都可以。就是家长老师学校演得太过分了，现实中至少我没遇到这么尖酸刻薄狭隘的，比较脸谱化，我不知道这是不是原著中的批判性。五个小人里，约翰承包了几乎所有笑点，博士和上尉各有各的帅，然而两个女孩存在感弱还圣母，这样设定合适吗。
本来是不是即使没有个郑渊洁宇宙，也得有个魔方大厦？
轻松愉快欢乐，虽然已经忘了原著，但看完仍觉得很开心，是九十分钟的独属美好了。几个小演员都还可以，配乐虽有彼此衔接问题，但能做到适时出现烘托氛围。跪求郑亚旗赶紧影视化其他的啊！拿着这么大ip怎么就没啥面向大众市场的动作呢
啊童年回忆杀！！虽然有些演技有点尬，人物也有点浮夸，但是有童年滤镜啊！有友情和勇气，还有批判性的探讨，我可以原谅这些不完美……后面高潮部分甚至还想掉眼泪。感动。我好爱鲁西西哦，还有亲爱的罐头小人们
观看过程中我一直很迷惑：这是拍给谁看的电影呢？现在的小学生吗？想让他们喜欢这种上世纪九十年代质感的脸谱化故事，未免太小看他们了；给儿时看郑渊洁作品的成年人？小时候喜欢郑作品的这群人，数量少，长大后在精神层面也难免会有些挑剔，这种水准的制作也难取悦他们。不过片子的完成度很高，皮皮鲁、鲁西西的选角很合适，放在十年前或许会更成功。
“我们医院没有RH阴性血” “我是一小校长” “马上联系合作单位！”
一边觉得不好看这是啥玩意儿并庆幸没有留着和我弟一起看
小时候特别喜欢看皮皮鲁和鲁西西，特意重温一下童年。片中童话感略单薄，置景也不太行，教室陈设、学生校服等又和家具、热水壶等产生了割裂，仿佛不是一个年代的！！集体作弊的篇幅过长，最后转折的点略生硬，不过小女孩鲁西西的演技真不错~还是支持郑渊洁爷爷~
另外这部剧第一标签居然是喜剧真是搞不懂，从头到尾我只在阴暗中感到悲哀。
真挺好看的哈哈哈哈哈。唯独觉得哈，这是写给我们90后80后的故事，跟现在的教育体制不太一样了。
比预想的好很多，剧本靠谱、表演在线，配乐对白也都还不错，郑渊洁客串宣告开启魔方宇宙，可能受限投资有些不仅完美之处，不过真的已经很棒了……ps.第一次在电影博物馆看电影，也是家里小朋友第一次看完一个半小时左右片长的电影
让孩子们看这么脸谱化的东西真的好么……也别什么都改编了，太毁童年了
郑渊洁童话，童年的回忆，虽然拍的有点尴尬，话糙理不糙。
故事的立意也很好，超满分作品。
这20年的教育改革还是有效果的。至少现在没有老师强占体育老师的课了。
从电影艺术的角度去分析，片子的不足有许多。但从观影体验以及文本价值来讲，本部电影是一件难得的珍宝——罕见且精准地儿童视角、态度鲜明的批判、童话的奇幻想象与浪慢、生活的冰冷与温情。作为成年人再次受到了老郑“真善美”的教育。ps.心得，素材之真、传达之准并不必然达到艺术之真（《关于我妈》），艺术之真本质上是关于态度的表达之真。艺术作品是否真的抵达真、善或美，其标准就在于能否以其一沟通其余二者。
故事完整流畅还很好看，还很动人。
讨论教育的本质，又能在这样一个魔幻的环境里表现现实，童话最本真的爱和勇气也太容易哭了，啊啊啊，四年级一班的皮皮鲁和鲁西西，我的童年！
