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.
可能是因为有克林弗斯滤镜，我居然还挺喜欢的。导演是个明白人，知道怎么让克林弗斯的美貌最大化。
演绎真史够精彩，蛇足恋情欠动人。
双女主动作片！打斗很流畅，同居戏温馨可爱，我一个大女人看得很开心
这帮英国男演员怎么一天到晚升官发财死老婆的……
感觉这班英国佬挺蠢的，瞎猫碰上个死老鼠，原来就靠这个打赢战役？？？！电影本身前面铺垫的海量感情戏有点莫名其妙，综合来说，真的给个差评！
叙事确实有点跳 但还可以接受 只是这样做没有让人物太饱满 想复制至黑时刻但是剧本深度与流畅度还是差点 可是纵观整个故事还是不错的
三星半，但是刚给必胜球探打了四星，这部平分有点说不过去，所以只给了三星。原本题材就稍显薄弱，硬塞进一段婚外恋罗曼司可以说是非常cringe非常掉分。然而又有谁忍心把军装柯林费尔斯打到三星以下呢。硬钓制服控是吧，皇家海军的制服就像文明里的自由女神像，强锁忠实度不讲道理。😅
精致的电影，前20分钟稍嫌无聊，后面陡然提升档次，每幕每句都值得细读。喜欢Jean的苏格兰口音，演员谈这个设计的报道：https://www.digitalspy.com/movies/a39710385/line-of-duty-kelly-macdonald-operation-mincemeat-accent/
感觉可以给到3.5星 plot twists很多很惊喜 但是节奏总是差了那么一点 以及其实谍战片里真的没有必要加模棱两可的感情戏hhh
这帮英国男演员怎么一天到晚升官发财死老婆的……
很沉闷的一部影片，这是第一印象。类型真的不适合划分到战争，单单剧情就可以了。如果一个人时间非常充裕，又没有什么急事需要处理的话，可以泡一杯咖啡或者一壶茶，细细慢慢地品味这部剧情片。
本是一个颇具传奇性的历史真事，但剧本写得太顺拐了！！困难浮于表面，解决得莫名其妙，看着跟假的似的-_-||感情戏多了点，要是更多德军方面的视角会把故事讲得更有意思。
本片最主要的暗线竟然是伊恩·弗莱明。他的确在1943年前后供职海军情报处，曾指挥过一个三十人的谍报小组，这个小组也曾在西西里岛活动，但我遍寻网络也没找到他曾参与肉馅计划的史实，不知道为啥导演要扯上这位神仙，还不止一次的用台词暗示他是那个写小说的人。
很工整的电影，两个男主的合作很精彩，但是女主拍得如此没有魅力也挺无语，不拍感情戏其实不影响全剧。
很努力地变换剪辑方式让主线不至太沉闷。紧张搞谍战之中穿插精神出轨、三角恋还有其他乌七八糟的元素干啥？啊就当调剂得了…伊恩弗莱明相关的彩蛋是亮点
卡司亮瞎眼，情节中规中矩。老是偏题成弗莱明的传记片，最后也不在打字幕的时候提下人家后来写了007。
平淡，本来以为是历史战争片，结果看完感觉像是看了部文艺爱情片，，，
所以说谍战题材好看的部分还得是外勤和潜伏，或者是抓内鬼，不然剧情刺激度会大打折扣
我还挺喜欢这种一本正经讲杀手生活的故事的，有种别样的黑色幽默感，两个女主的动作戏打的也挺利索，力量感到位，虽然动作设计不怎么好看，但是还蛮有真实感，枪戏动作也做的非常帅，推荐推荐，希望有第二部
故事講述的節奏太好了，雖然匠氣，但是也看得出前期劇本相當紮實。劇本裡有很多發人深省的安排和巧思，只是過於節制，感覺還可以延伸另一部劇來。雖然演員空間有限，但其實是更考驗演技和經驗的。
