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'.

感觉还行，愿疫情早日散去。(7.0/10)
正面视角，弘扬正气的片子搞这么明显的广告植入看着也是五味杂陈。学诺兰的结构还行，但是也很明显
电影很感人特别是黄渤志愿者的故事，多次让我感动。贾玲的故事其实也可以，从事不关己到齐心参与。高龄产妇和暮年恋爱的故事穿插在电影里总觉得不合适。
整个拍的就稀里糊涂的，三星就给战胜武汉新冠疫情的所有人，志愿者，医护人员，捐赠者，配合的人民
本来要打4星，被50岁的高龄产妇没问题很常见恶心掉一颗星。
咱就是说...贾玲和朱一龙好不容易谈个恋爱还be了，这男主死得毫无必要啊...喜欢爷爷奶奶这对，哭死我了呜呜呜。甜甜也参演了，好惊喜ww唱的歌也很好听！（强烈吐槽雨中拥抱这个戏，我不理解，在电影院看得我满脸问号脚趾抓地，就这？这就好了？这就？嗯？？？？
剧情太单薄了… 硬要几个故事凑在一起… 但很喜欢最后的一句珍惜当下！
抗疫片里逻辑性最差的一部 不过也有感动点
6.2分 是一部以疫情为背景的暖心向电影，不是部分影迷想要的那种深刻的、纪录片式的疫情电影。不要对我们根本拍不出来的电影有期待。｜从暖心向电影而言，相比一些电影已经算是没有特别明显的大尬点了，但小尬点和令人不舒服的点还是有。｜最喜欢奶奶。贾玲面对朱一龙的各种小娇羞，因为她真的喜欢朱一龙而显得格外真实，哈哈哈哈哈。朱一龙真是适合演白月光啊。那么温柔又有情调的男人只有梦里才有，只有他才配演。他演的叶老师让人感觉很舒服，似乎世界上真的存在叶老师这个人。（只不过后面影片对叶老师捐献器官的剧情的表达方式处理的不好，这是导演的问题，演员已经没有戏份了。）黄渤不容易，如果不是他演，这部分的戏可能会更难看。徐帆和高亚麟这么好的演员实在是被灾难般的剧情给浪费了。王骁，可惜这部戏没有给他表演空间。｜别的不说了。
刻意煽情！咱就是说为什么元旦最后一天来给自己添堵呢？
“当我们穿过寒冬拥抱爱的时候，
感动是真的，故意煽情也是真的，稍微有点假也是真的，哭死了也是真的
我觉得可以不要拍抗疫片了 有点审美疲劳了... 电影主题很正，但真的觉得和别的没啥区别
高亚麟那段也没啥特别的感觉。
两部疫情片，《中国医生》表现的是突发疫情下的武汉医生，《拥抱你》表现的是突发疫情下的武汉人民。整体而言更喜欢《拥抱你》，被突发疫情下互爱互助，不被困难所打败依旧热爱生活相信生活的武汉人民所感动。当然，现实的武汉远比电影里更混乱更无助更可怕，但我们也需要这些温暖的记忆去鼓舞可能会面临下一个危险的我们【电影每个故事场景连接的非常妙】
说是纪实又没有纪录片的真实，为什么都在疯狂呼吁小人物付出 说是故事片，情节又全在套路里 我坐下来看了两个小时就是为了精准的吐槽他
大年三十那一晚的马路上，拍摄三个不同家庭的事，还是挺有新意的。而且，也被老人间的爱情感动到。可是，叶老师那一趴感觉怪怪的，为啥一定得得病呢？实习护士怎么就去世了呢？情节之间连贯性不够，看得一脸懵逼……真的如很多人所言，好的题材被讲得支离破碎……可惜了，没能体现好“以小见大”。
和《中国医生》不同的是，影片没有把目光放到医护人员身上，而是聚焦疫情下的武汉普通市民，只是通过谢咏琴和夏晓两个角色从侧面展现了一下医护工作者们的奉献与牺牲。影片以两个担任志愿者的快递员为主线，再加上一老一中两对情侣的支线，意图用多线叙事交叉来呈现封城中的武汉市民众生相，但显然薛导玩得不怎么遛，多线交叉没有巧妙感，剧情叙事太平直，煽情手法更是生硬得看着尴尬。片中的两对CP也很违和，贾玲和朱一龙差距这么大，俩人配对毫无期待感，估计编导自己都觉得尬，所以才让朱一龙的角色去世吧；吴彦姝比许绍雄大了十岁，明显更显老态，像姐姐多过像情侣。最后，武哥得知叶子扬去世后的第一反应竟然是开心的笑了，这很拉胯啊！突然听到自己念念不忘的人去世难道不该悲伤吗？然后才想到他不赴约会的真相再笑才对吧？
非典型性抗疫电影，描写小人物们在疫情封城期间努力生活，自救和救助他人的片段。
怎么说呢，贾玲是真的厉害，戏是真的好。很难想象当时的武汉人民是如何挺过来的。
