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.
显然这不是我想要的…
但是因为同期有《沙丘》这样的史诗与这样一部伪史诗做对比真的差距一下就出来了。
又想赚快钱拉关系又想维持自己的辨识度，下场就是这样，看文艺片的人看不上，漫威粉丝更是觉得莫名其妙，每一段镜头都能感觉到赵的分裂，刚搞点舒缓的气氛马上又要急吼吼的打怪，能好看才怪呢。比起来，沙丘的自由程度果然还是高出一大截的。
非常奇怪的观影体验，可以用李安的表情包来总结:“我看不懂，但我大受震撼”。一方面电影的质感，色调，配乐都非常好，不像以往的漫威电影，走相对色彩鲜艳的风格。每个人物的人设基本都有角色弧光，哑女，黑人同性恋（有吻戏，也是漫威电影首次出现同性之吻吧），亚裔，发狂的朱莉，“超人”设定的麦登（他真的好帅！），整个底色是有悲剧色彩的。当jon snow说“I love you， Sersi”，真的太怪了！编剧是故意的吗？ 饱受诟病也是我真的无法理解的部分就是广岛的那个情节，觉得非常莫名其妙，有几个人能对这个共情？评分:7.5/10。
声音轰隆轰隆的，应该在电影院放才对，可惜了。
又是一个跟An Absolutely Remarkable Thing有共通之处的故事。但太浮于表面了。几乎每个角色都是，从头到尾没啥变化，有的感情线莫名其妙。Barry和Julie的角色arch最差，太讨人嫌了吧。我觉得这个浮于表面大概是因为，我认为既然要讨论“神”（这两部作品里的神其实都是外星人）对人类文明进展的影响和人的主观能动性对文明发展是否重要，那么人才应该是主角。这个故事完全相反，没有任何人的戏份，演一群神为了人的生存战斗，就很疏离，也看不到他们为什么会在乎。这是故事本身的问题，电影拍得是还行的，比大部分漫威嘴炮片用心 、有质感。就是因为故事就到这儿了，很难走进人心里。
喜欢它带来不一样的气质，但也面临着既不娱乐也不深刻，两头不着的尴尬。它最大的问题在于，永恒族和人类的联结并没有得到足够充分的描写，角色在说爱人类、对人类失望的时候，和人类的距离其实很遥远，于是任何思考都变得空洞，有种“俯视”感，最终成为进入角色的阻碍，观影中时常会感受这种别扭。就像写超人，写好克拉克肯特很重要，需要你去融入这个世界才有可能感受到它，何况这是他们最后神性/人性选择的最根本动机。影片一些细节和设定都很有值得琢磨的地方，永恒族和异常族的工具人属性以及他们身上的所承载的，其实相当具有悲剧性，但都没能能好的利用好或者更深地去触及，异常族也简单矮化成为了普通的反派，最后的落点都特别低。或许它更适合拍成剧集去更好地延伸（但不能是D+剧集）。
另一条赛道的赵婷闯入漫威的宇宙制作体系中，拍出了一部很不漫威的漫威电影。这显然不完全只是一部工业流水线作品，但也很难说是一部成功的作品。影片依托于一个相当粗糙拉胯的剧本，在爆米花和个人表达之间别扭地摇摆着，结果是两头都没太讨好。至于沸反盈天的政治正确说，其实可以看作是好莱坞当下的趋势必然，需要减滤镜去看待。哀恸广岛核爆一幕，缺的是历史往前其他人类灾难的补充。只有这一幕，难免会陷入立场的怀疑与争论之中。
拍得太松散了，剧情走马观花，角色动机莫名其妙。我为什么总是这样在漫威电影上一次又一次不吸取教训：明明知道漫威和我八字不合，还非要屁颠屁颠看，看完再次陷入又一次被当傻子观众的懊恼里。赵婷不适合拍商业片。整部电影除了特效，没啥可看的。漫威的角色总是那么一如既往的低幼。
强行把一堆宗教历史社会议题塞进一部爆米花类型片里，结果只能是两边都不讨好。还有人类进化是靠着高等外星生命帮助的这套理论，有点简单粗暴，还有点蠢，消解了人类进化本身的艰辛，明明是漫长的时间、不断的试错、付出无数代价的过程。当然进化到今天，也依旧是个人类而已。。
2021.11.5 @ vue west end。很少看超英大片，但是都在我生日首映了，就前排围观全球旅游打怪呗，重点是和初尘老师一起看就很开心。宝莱坞顶流把我笑死，今年女神流行插秧，巨人怎么看都像Lilith，片尾彩蛋有两个（是不是漫威常规操作啊？）总结一下中心思想：姐妹赶紧甩掉那个渣男，振作起来去拯救世界了！
是真的看不下去，整套设定实在太楞太der了，就您这姿势水平就先别搞什么人类文明巡礼了。还有这套选角也是绝，永恒族就这么几个人，男女弯直、高矮胖瘦、各种肤色一应俱全，还有位聋哑人。。。大数据算都算不到这么全乎。另外这片子拍砸了然后ZT长ZT短的其实属于跑偏了，如果一定要给她分一口锅，那她最大的过错在于不该这么轻易上了漫威的船。
用一個言情導演來拍這樣的漫威電影，成效幾乎可以立刻判斷，就是所用非人。
不太行。但并不是因为那个原因的不行。而是有点当年李安那个版本的绿巨人的感觉。
永恒族不应该那么低分啊，从观影上看是少有的文艺派风格。世界观横跨得有点远，导致很多历史事件简单带过，但仍符合永恒族每个人的能力反思（最为明显就是心灵控制和科技者那两位）。漫威始终是商业片，不能用文艺片纪录片的规格去审判它
我个人觉得还不错看！怎么那么多人说不好看呢？故事确实精彩，效果也不错！总觉得只有一个主角罢了，那就是女主！喜欢MCU的千万不要错过哦！
我大概明白这个片子的立意，但依然不能否认这是一部垃圾，确切的说本片唯一的合理性是给灭霸打响指消灭一半人口提供了理论支撑。好家伙，人类的智慧被降低到靠永恒族帮助，你啥玩意儿啊。情节bug多多，比如永恒族声称自己不介入地球人内斗，好家伙，灭霸入侵这是地球内斗？好吧消灭一半的人口你不介入，复联4要消灭全部人口了还不介入（虽然我感觉这个所谓的永恒族的战斗力压根就赶不上灭霸军团），你倒是等着强撸灰飞烟灭呢？
有的时候，我甚至怀疑迪士尼来中国捞了一波玄幻网文回去融入进漫威了。这不难看啊，为啥评分这么低？
六眼巨人、末世、汪洋大海、来毁灭地球的使徒….致敬EVA？他们飞船里那红色的神雕像的身形就很EVA
文艺型的导演拍漫威大片就是说不出的不搭噶，故事背景整得挺宏大，就是不好看
