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.
印度都有关于同性电影，希望我们国家也越来越包容。虽然我不支持同性婚姻，但不妨碍我希望他们🈶️更多生活空间。最后被女主父亲的爱感动，父母是我们大树也是软肋
笑死了，看自己熟悉的方言、习俗的潮汕剧。细节捕捉到位，不能说有点像，简直一模一样。千万不要被我妈看到这部。前喜后泪，写满了“可惜”两个字，有被触动到。影片拍摄可见比前作《爸》成熟，也专业了许多。★★★☆/7.5
真好啊，印度都能拍同性形婚，呼吁同性领养合法了。感觉被人家落下老远。
影片讲述了很多潮汕地区的风土人情，在祭祀风俗上的方方面面，其实是有起到宣传当地文化习俗的作用，潮汕地区给我们的印象也不再是之前那么死板。在这个充满人情味的地方，里面的人也在不断地适应迅速发展的社会，不会固步自封。
看完上海话的《爱情神话》再看潮汕话的《带你去见我妈》，都有一种遥远的亲切感。果然，方言的才是世界的。
看到惺惺相惜和最后的印度同志大游行…有一些破防了😢
正面意义上的要素齐全，好在往往反对声音最大的爸爸 在剧中都是善解人意的一方，如果是传统保守大男子主义的爸爸，或许结尾也就不会那么好
我觉得值得点个赞的就是这个主题和他讲故事的方式，不是靠言语来煽情，而是全部靠行动，这要高级很多，我是越往后看越喜欢的，7.9
中规中矩七分片。相比起现在流行的国产鲜肉爱情片，本片基于现实，来源生活，还是很触动人心的。不过仍旧有国产爱情片煽情烂大街手法：回忆杀。情到深处自然浓，回忆都是美好的啊。愿有情人终成眷属。
印度的歌舞每次都是我最爱看的地方了。嘿嘿嘿，就感觉节奏十分不错，而且有的地方还好笑。
第一次看印度同影 同为亚洲人能relate到 最后男主在pride parade里带上那个彩虹面具那里真的挺感动的 但是我感觉男女主家庭都有一定特殊性 就是父权力量都比较弱 现实生活中出柜估计比这还要困难吧
这个结局就真棒
很难想象这个保守的国家居然能拍一部同性电影，他爱他，她爱她，来自家人的催婚，让两人形婚，当坦诚内心情感的那一刹，终于如释重负，家人永远是孩子遮风避雨的港湾，当女主爸爸让她的同性爱人一起接受孩子的赐福仪式，有时侯对子女的支持只需要一小步和一点勇气！
除了有点长，都很好，有一星打给印度的先进性（全靠同行衬托）。也不知道为啥，一定要歌舞吗？虽然只有一点点。
硕士学历七八层楼那么高，可惜离过婚；
家庭永远是亚洲人过不去的一道坎。何以解忧？唯有骄傲。
故事并不新颖，父母与子女新旧观念的碰撞，影片中展示的潮汕文化独具一格，演员演绎在线，部分情节上掉线，没有代入感。
我很喜欢！虽然电影没有那么好，但我愿意给它一个五星。第一次看同性恋喜剧，没想到印度片反而这么和我的胃口，我觉得lgbt题材不一定非要搞得那么严肃，这样轻轻松松的看得很爽，看到最后游行那一段非常感动…女主好可爱，什么时候来一个印度美女能看得上我😫btw，男主是不是有点强迫症啊
love is love
