David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
如果只看动作戏和剧情，那本片也就三星-三星半水准，多加的一星半在于，本片植根于一个鲜少有动作片会采用的颠覆性设定——主人公在数小时内必死。主角光环已残损坠灭——凯特即使拼尽全力，杀败所有外在敌人，也没法阻挡从身体内部渐次散溢的、由内在缓缓渗透并最终漫卷涌出的死亡。她的每一次大口喘息、踉跄趔趄、呕吐虚脱与疲累疼痛都如此真实可感。也正是在极度残损沉重的肉身阻遏下，凯特的勉力支撑才绝对地动人心魄，女性不再是欲望凝视的客体或机械的非人，而真正成为引人共情与融入的、悲喜交织的主体性存在。于是，表象、动作与剧情已然不是关键，唯有切近的情感、身体感知、个体生命终究难以回避的死亡才是我们自身与这部影片的核心。伴着女主角的自我觉醒与反思，影片持续地唤起我们的死亡意识，进入一种本真的生存状态。（9.0/10）
工具人大杀器女主，还是老一套，救个熊孩子算哪门子立人设了，女性坚贞？？你仿佛在逗我笑
最近打女的动作片多了起来，有人说凯伦·吉兰的火药奶昔动作打的慢，我觉得这一个动作也块不到哪里去，还要多练练才当打女好吧，不过还是够残暴血腥
演员卡司不行啊 达咩 抄安吉丽娜朱莉的特工绍特都没抄到精髓 抄查尔斯萨隆的极寒之地也是只有皮毛和元素的重复 完全就一烂片
欧美流行文化日渐枯竭并且在初尝到了赛博朋克与攻壳机动队的甜头之后，网飞开始慢慢的对亚洲文化进行缓慢而有节奏的“White wash”，这个主角配置和色调什么的都呈现一种很典型的大数据趋势，尝试型的烂片无可避免，以后进化式的类似作品会越来越多，不知道是好还是坏
记得好几年前听说过要拍梅津泰臣的«风筝»真人版，但后来出了吗？
看到kate的身材又冒起减肥的念头，是的，每看一场大女主动作戏都是对自己的一次残忍凌迟😅
好爱这部啊！！！完全是我的审美点上 分镜头也好爱 赛博都市的味正正好 好喜欢女主站在房顶上 然后对面大楼霓虹灯闪烁还有动漫在大楼上投放 坐着粉色车那一段的拍摄手法 以及 女主一个人闯进那个日式古屋但是背景是黑白的那一段 太合我的胃口了！女主好帅好美 打戏利落 狠狠爱住 丸子头妹妹越看越可爱 好喜欢她那一股古灵精怪的倔感 就结局和浅野忠信的角色有点可惜 浅野忠信的角色太弱了吧
只要立下再干最后一票的flag，就算“杀死比尔”附体的女战神，也是难逃一死！
不是每个女主电影都是《杀死比尔》，女主长相太大妈，武戏都不如看别人撕头发，感觉就是为了蹭一个奥运的热度。
但这些日本元素一点也不日本 欧美人继续对东方文化的意淫罢了
保持网飞一贯牛逼吹的比正片好的光荣传统，怎么港，和同类型的《极寒之城》比，中间也就差了十个《摄氏32度》吧
动作戏的设计和拍摄很棒，赶得上John wick ，也有极寒之城、安娜的感觉，比门徒好看多了，还是美女杀手的老套路，拍摄背景在日本就很加分。但剧情太糟糕，没有一丝转折，伍迪哈里森是老戏骨了，不可能只演个一个小时就只有几句台词的配角，一看就知道是大魔王。小女孩的设定也很无趣，毫不动人。玛丽是我挺喜欢的演员，84年的，在中毒之前就能看出老态，可能是妆容的原因。
网飞拍了无数个《极寒之城》和女版John Wick，这回又轮到玛丽伊丽莎白演了。中间的一段日本飙车戏颇有赛博朋克的感觉，算是比较吸引眼球，但其他的部分基本就是流水账，动作毫无张力，故事也缺乏新意，中等偏下水平
女主酷毙了，一路杀杀杀。歌舞伎那边的打斗，场景黑白色主调，非常带感。后面和miyavi在室内打斗的那段也很好看。这种片剧情本身就没什么期待。小女主当中有几段配音没搞好，很出戏，演得也一般。浅野忠信和miyavi在里面都帅爆了。完全当爆米花电影解闷还是可以的
色调像攻壳机动队黑霓虹，人物造型后半程像考拉，打法像杀死比尔，只有最后一幕🌸出现像暴力美学，色彩太单调，故事也数见不鲜了，但是只要杀小日子过得不错的人就看着很过瘾。
网飞是准备量产john wick了吗？然后再扔骰子决定往里面丢点什么元素。真 霓虹背景，血浆量加满，给了电影出乎意料的好看。不过剧本还是那个剧本，没头脑和不高兴。
美式爽快动作配上日式赛博动漫，没想到还挺搭调的。算是女版《疾速追杀》了，个人觉得比大魔王的《极寒杀手》要好看挺多。设定也是非常有意思，主角是一开始就确定后面肯定要死（只是死因挺扯淡），算是越打越弱反其道而行之的类型，这与常规动作片有很大不同。几个断肢和处决动作挺帅，尤其找小女孩前那场打戏尤为精彩。
就是看看飒爽小姐姐完成一些还可以的动作。温斯特德竟然有点东方感7
前半部分的动作戏干净利落，故事、配乐比较差
