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.
侏罗纪世界3烂成啥了不比这玩意香？
这想象力、这画面、这效果，再蠢的剧情也显得有点牛了
那姑娘算英奸不？
印度开挂抗英神剧，看来印度也在搞民族主义，但这样的国家也算是头一次了，毕竟之前当狗当习惯，突然看到这样印度还真不习惯，剧情太老套，拍摄也很一般，完全搞不懂难道他们不知道打游击枪武器？，非得投靠他们然后再枪武器？
不带脑子看这部剧还是蛮爽的，主角二人一水一火的镜头印象深刻
3.国内找不出一个如此的肌肉男演员，确实汗颜。
印度版抗英神剧 很印度…我们的方式不同 但是目标一致
这不是印度版的抗日神片吗？不过特效也太好了，两主角也实打实的身手敏捷，剧情没那么雷人的话我就给5星了
放弃抵抗，接受了印度电影坦荡荡的离谱设定之后觉得非常好看（他们就是要唱歌，就是要平地起跳三米五，主角就是打成筛子还不死，你就不要跟他们犟了，看热闹也很快乐！）
比起巴霍巴利王的剧情差点，但是摄影和特效又上了一个台阶，看完才发觉是部印度红片。
“Nick, you’re a fucking movie star! Don’t you ever forget this!”
前半段挺好的，就是有点墨迹，后面开挂就开始放飞自我了 哈哈哈哈哈
7.5
桥下救人佩服三哥的想象力，后面天神下凡也是燃值拉满了，突然觉得三哥很不容易，真真的被殖民了那么多年啊
前半段挺好的，就是有点墨迹，后面开挂就开始放飞自我了 哈哈哈哈哈
能坚持看完阿三这部电影，完全就是想知道到底能二到什么程度，结果结束后发现还蛮精彩，不费脑别思考，爽就完了。
这想象力、这画面、这效果，再蠢的剧情也显得有点牛了
神片、炫酷、够爽，抛开逻辑不讲哈哈哈哈，是个好片。视效、双雄剧情、花园内水火对决、两段歌舞都不错。抡起摩托就是咖喱味的但丁哈哈哈哈。阿莉雅真好看
看来手撕鬼子的剧情在某些民族主义想象中是通用的
政治风方变啦？敢打大英日已落帝国了，哈哈哈。印度神剧的音乐挺不错的，动作也是神，特效可以。就是用手吃饭这个忍不了，当娱乐片看就好了😂。不得不说里面有几首歌还挺燃的。一个小女孩因为会美甲被日落帝国一个总督妻子抢走，部落神人去救，偶遇另一为了政治翻身争自由，埋伏机会抢枪的神人，相识相爱相打，最后又一起去救小女孩，更神的是两神人挑打了整个营团，神中神
