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.
也是奇怪了，甚至很难描述这部电影好在哪，并觉得遗憾还挺多的。但是，在看的时候，却又数度落泪。或者，只能说，电影太细腻了，会让人想起很多，她描绘出了很多生活中很常见的真实以及困扰。移民所带来的文化背景问题，其实只是一个设定，但成长的困扰与亲情关系，却是想通的。小女孩确实演得非常好，她让你完全进入了这个故事。
维瑟米尔居然年轻的时候这么帅，放荡不羁的糙男人谁不爱。反观杰洛特为啥小时候是个光头？？阿尔罕默真是多灾多难啊。
什么中国美国，什么大陆台湾，什么俄罗斯乌克兰，我只记得，那时候，我去网吧，能不搬梯子看到整个世界，那个时候在QQ上随意加个网友都很友善，那个时候能过一个鞭炮此起彼伏，烟花绚烂的年，那个时候能看到各式各样的电影电视剧没有删减。
毫无征兆的完结，一方面感觉争吵都有点过，一方面又觉得真的想看到讨论的点又不够深。也能理解主创想要刻意淡化的部分，只是仍觉得有点遗憾。
维瑟米尔老爷子年轻起就见过大场面。
对我来说太太太接地气了，虽然背景完全不同，但于我个人，家里的气氛，家人吵架的情形 频率 模式都近乎一致，学校打手板的老师，家长会，不合群的孩子，网吧，这些元素我是太熟悉了，熟悉到我会惊讶于在地区 文化 年代各种背景都不同的情况下人们的生活元素会这么相似，至今的大流行也是一样，给我种社会从未进步的印象。再想想我和电影里比缺了什么？没有见过世面，没有心爱的马儿，没有叫jesse的朋友，更没有爱恨交织的兄弟姐妹
严格来说，只值一分。一个连续剧，一个动画，拍来还没有游戏好，包括小说，都没有游戏好。
有新人创作者的通病，如构建社会环境的笔法过于清淡，坦诚有余而内功不足等等。当然优点也较突出，尤其是能和亲身经历拉开间隔，尽管如此也造成了影片始终像在这个充满戏剧性的家庭外围兜转，缺乏一个真正精准、有牵引力的视角。明面上最好的段落确是女孩和马的“无效”沟通，虽然置于前后文来看，总归有些刻意。另外母亲和妹妹在阳台上烧纸的对话也颇具巧思，像这样无心插柳的闪光点再多些就好了。
我可以列举出它少了什么缺了什么可惜在哪里，但我不必，批评的话留待我痛哭过的以后吧，现在我要哭了，没有一匹马。
好看啊，打戏爽翻，剧情上填了凯尔莫罕大屠杀的坑，光头杰洛特好可爱哈哈哈哈
最后那个反转，我艹，真的，我艹
猎魔人维瑟米尔的光辉岁月前传，完整复现了他从一而终的气质。炼金术女巫猎魔人，吸引人的题材，带观众入坑。Witcher的世界没有好坏，只有在无常命运下无尽的仇恨和悔恨。谁能想到威瑟米尔这糟老头子这么浪漫？那一组月下对话“拜托，我快70了”“我也是”，以及最后将冰化为梦想中的湖，无不让人为老爷子唏嘘。
故事中规中矩，单节奏悬念假设的不错，但是对于原作设定有出入，经历过青草试炼的猎魔人发色都会变白，不存在多重颜色。杰洛特也不是秃头
极其细腻地展现家庭的状态，矛盾冲突也很真实，家里有个患者，所有人就都会不痛快，气氛也都永远会是紧绷。各方面如母女之间的情感也十分动人。由于个人的原因吧看到这样的家庭总是会不自觉代入进去。认为林嘉欣比贾静雯更值得那个表演奖项，这种敏感脆弱的状态，对于女儿的爱的展现，都特别好，最后那句好爱好爱完全击中我了。果然亲情是最割舍不掉的情感吧。年度十佳候选。8/10
动作设计动画效果很棒，美术的水准也很高。两颗星全给art department。故事感觉不怎么行啊…里面很多的情节和心理的转换太快了，甚至其实人物完全没有发展。看了80分钟没能明白我为什么要看这么一部片子，难道就是为了看怪物和杀戮吗…
血腥程度还是来得这么直接和熟练，但这动作场面在网飞可难得一见。
以维瑟米尔为主角的前传故事，故事讲的虽然俗，但也算圆满。有些设定相对于原作，有些奇怪
故事秉承了游戏系列的“大家都不是好东西”以及“没有完美的选择”的黑暗风格，但也算是保留了一些光明的线索以及一丝丝对角色命运和观众心灵的仁慈
从头到尾脑海里三个字，死小孩，只顾自己。可是静下心来，想一想，我们又何尝不是死小孩，或许妈妈她已经尽力做到她的最好了！
都是些很常见的关于家庭处境，矛盾等，往真实里拍，重现旧年代的产物，整体没啥缺点。★★★☆/7.3
