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.
5/13/2022 爬隧道 关在密闭空间 只有水路一条 我的噩梦集一体 要窒息了
整部电影的基调，像是82年的可乐里面加了半瓶老陈醋，色泽上看不出什么，实则入口就是一个酸腐的嗝儿。中年男导演拍出来满足中年男人臆想和恶趣味的电影，但我看得很娱乐，说明我也中年了~
依然是过时笑点的堆砌，最大亮点可能是皮特的片段。
这种片就是想看好身材男女主多点激情四射的爱情戏，所以太寡淡了点吧，还是蛮好笑的
太好笑了😂钱老板贡献了本片最大看点，皮特便当领的过于草率。丹尼尔真的，典型疯批无脑反派。
居然觉得比《神秘海域》还要好看些，至少笑点很有趣，钱宁傻白甜的肉脚形象相当不错，皮特出来打了个酱油，我居然对着那张沧桑的络腮胡看了半天认不出来！另外，这不是艾伦期待的丛林寻宝片，而是洛蕾塔笔下的爱情冒险小说。
感觉是没经费的寻宝片，没啥大场面，无聊可看，毕竟电影配色还是很喜欢的。
金色长发的钱老板，在布拉德皮特旁边全程柔弱无助的钱老板，赤身裸体的钱老板……哎呀，就……
要是没有Brad Pitt，The Lost City就差点要淹没在公式化动作冒险喜剧的茫茫大海中了。
似乎和《黑寡妇》一脉相承，期待着它不止于此，但事实上真的好像只能浅尝辄止。关于无脑小说成真还有不知所云的冒险都在无功无过的轻松下水过，如果在荧幕上看可能是一种全然放松的嬉笑。台词里一些流行文化梗和热议话题的撷取可能是最好笑的地方，尤其在钱老板参演电影里cue《特种部队》。二美老师为什么不能再高一点呜呜呜！杨伯文虽然只是个短暂出场的主持人但还是好可爱好可爱！/但也因为可能之前因为卡司和票房期待有点虚高，接下来《妈的多重宇宙》和《火烧岛》或许需要稍微克制期待。

notime to die
怎么能比暗夜博士还无聊还老套人物转变更莫名其妙的电影 上次看到这么草率的人物成长是花木兰 太烂了实在 搞笑？一个梗都没get到 布拉德皮特来了也没用 这男女主更是一点cp感都没有 比暗夜博士还差 我是没想到的（部分动作戏剪辑更是一泡污 两个摩托车相撞为什么能剪成这样？）
皮特下线的那么快吗，气人，那一下PG不得提升吗?nice butt
苦后更甜
布拉德皮特酱油盒饭宇宙再次喜加一！片子本身很蠢很口水没点评价值，吃夜宵时无聊看看吧
苦后更甜
爆米花喜剧，角色魅力不大，但笑点很多，最大亮点在皮特的深度客串，是喜欢的类型。
桑婆婆和pitt都太老了，这种养眼的片子浪费大牌的演技
就当……纯喜剧。Emmm言情小说的桥段描述可以的;-) 钱老板的臀这么多年依然还是很王炸( ´▽｀)
