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.
全是概念又不深入，柯南堡很难到以前创作巅峰期的状态了
各方利益的纠葛，故事大部分都是用台词来推动，这么有趣的题材视觉上太弱了，显得有些无趣甚至枯燥了。
开头还正常，越往后越迷惑，结尾高潮更是像学生汇报表演，还出现明显的定焦不准越轴的技术问题
差点被名字耽误了的良心剧，算给网大正名了。比妖怪更可怕的是变坏的人心
从生吃，钛到未来罪行，这两年body politics有点多……
不过比一般大电影强了，至少演员都很走心
被6.5分吸引来看的。罗生门故事会的创意很好，但大家演技都不大好，故事中还原的山上搏斗剧情也很站不住脚，感觉不值6.5。
太旧太硬了：外骨骼仪器、无痛近未来、为地球吃塑料，像20年前的科幻概念；肚皮幕布揭开奉出呕心沥血孕育的剧院果实、作者性签名/纹身、挑选镜头/戒指、凝视和记录有punch之力、无自控力的“肤”浅耸动不算创作、物理进入身体的无性别快感、操作女性器官状的外脑完成手术，几乎是把本体喻体都硬怼到你眼前了，甚至一个句子说三遍。然后洋洋洒洒的nada之后真就nada了，结尾停在viggo美丽脸孔的泪滴，非常接近德莱叶的贞德特写，大概对柯南伯格来说viggo就是终极答案吧。行。（电影院故障干等40min，与此同时河对面纽约首映主创都出席了，气到）（这部和钛好有缘，科幻body horror，女人/男人向对立性别的异化，最终毁灭/难产总之not to be。不过抱着钛的horror心理准备来看，只用了3%不到
用我的内里贴紧你 是亲吻的延伸；所有的自我切割仍是渴求关联 - 虽然我更想念从前执着毁灭的柯南伯格 但或许人类终究还是在等一束圣光：独属老年柯南伯格的天真
还是值得一看。二十年前的剧本，今日看也还行，但也没有特别厉害的地方。执导演员还是一流的。隐喻都传到了，而且多次重复，令人记忆深刻。特别小k窗口那段，回应也很妙，旧式s*已经不行了。另外一个层面，如果结尾能够好，四星一定。一个电影构建一个世界/宇宙，说通不容易，部分瑕疵之外，总体还可以，投入的钱也不多。
质感做的还不错，就是狐仙做的太可爱了。故事还是挺合理的，到也可以吧，讲的很明白人比鬼可怕。但是我还能等到鬼神不忌 的那一天吗，我想看真真正正的中式鬼片
在星图和大都会之后，柯南伯格又掏出了传统电影的那种深邃影调和光暗分布，又探讨了关于身体的主题。如果“身体是现实”，那么什么是身体？很显然，不是笛卡尔式的，试图通过松果腺去弥合的身心二元论命题下的作为精神实体的对子的实在。或许是“无器官身体”式的，将现实、知觉、身体、精神放置在同一平面，通过对“器官”扭曲的视觉维度呈现出一“坨”不再被传统的身体观规训、建构的器官。一切“额外”的器官都不会令人惊讶，是自由的现实的表征，是欲望的巅峰，流动在现实中，构成了不受约束的器官/身体/现实。
“我到底在国产鬼片里期待什么呢-1”除此之外故事完整气氛到位，民俗捉妖桥段也很过瘾（ps.好多打着两星三星的实质好评，这是什么含金量2333
破烂玩意儿，还是跟二十年前的《感官游戏》一样，弄些丑陋恶心粘乎乎的所谓科技设备，就装科幻片了。归根结底就是在贩卖变态。
被6.5分吸引来看的。罗生门故事会的创意很好，但大家演技都不大好，故事中还原的山上搏斗剧情也很站不住脚，感觉不值6.5。
什么🐔儿！尺度这一块确实到位了 剧情是什么牛马 并且画面看着贼廉价 柯南伯格是我喜欢的老艺术家 希望不要晚节不保
到最后逻辑都通了。最后的那一幕美好的情景我理解为乌托邦吧。可惜没看到美丽的狐妖，有点伤
柯南伯格有怨气呀！绝望无极限，欲望也是。它可以驱使人创造新的技法——“穿过皮囊爱死你”，也可以成为挑战社会秩序的基石，怎么畸变怎么来。文艺的心还能在类型片框架下完整叙述，还不错。
把一个个看似无关的狐仙传说串联成一个悲剧的真相。
yysy，真的一点点都不恐怖，完全是一部剧情悬疑片。。。刚开始看都做好了像看《招魂》那种心理准备了。。。总之网大拍成这样很好了，剧情整体上很不错，在dddd的国产惊悚片审核制度下， 既保有怪谈元素，又顺完了整个故事，属于很好的“带着脚镣跳舞”了
