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.
比连姆大叔前两部《Honest Thief》和《Blacklight》要好不少，但是并没有出彩太多。剧情老生常谈，动作戏缺乏紧张刺激感，莫妮卡·贝鲁奇和盖·皮尔斯都加盟了，一种“廉颇老矣”之感还是扑面而来，三星给不再年轻的三位演员
连姆尼森真的老了。不过，身手依旧不错。拳拳到肉。看得我肉痛。剧情还不错。跑步机那一段太痛了。
让就快老年痴呆的杀手连姆去杀小女孩，大叔哦不大爷不干了，反手帮警察把坏蛋都利索的做掉了，就这么简单，但让连姆和莫妮卡这么惨死对得起观众嘛，我好几百个片子没看立马就看这部，结果女神被割喉了，过分。
不好评价……尤其是故事背景几乎没得到交代的前提下
连姆尼森老了，不光是演出来的老了，是真的老了，本色出演哈哈哈哈老年痴呆杀手，的确不是一部好电影，但是连姆尼森值得给两星
虽然还是逃脱不了些许俗套的情节 整体观感还是很好的 连姆尼森依旧能打 他都72岁高龄了 盖皮尔斯总觉得跟记忆碎片有什么联系 还有同样老了的莫妮卡贝鲁奇 没什么期待所以反而觉得很惊喜
拍的波澜不惊。。。这导演还拍过黄金眼和皇家赌场的
现在只要是连姆尼森的片子都带着“营救”二字，还好《辛德勒的名单》演得早，不然又叫《辛德勒营救》
有个好剧本，有个好题材，但是拍的太差了，这么老旧的拍摄手法，怕是90年代可以获得高口碑，但是现在真的不行了，算是后半部分强行拉回来了一点吧，但是真的砸的很可惜
唉，男主好蠢。真的毫无社会经验。其实明明有几个选择。自己本来就没有野外生存能力，甚至可以说经验为0。一开始我觉得他要么别告诉司机，要么跟司机一起去都可能结果会好一点。
以后老连姆演杀手的片子可以直接pass了。
圣母美式优越感爆棚片，黑上级，黑上级的白上级，白球花，白儿子，拉丁医生，坏人。一身红勃装，曾经也失忆的盖探员，印裔女探员，好人。营救专业户，正失忆的连大叔，坏（杀手）好（杀手救小女孩，多半悲剧）坏（失手杀警察，肯定悲剧）好（通过公检惩罚元凶），反复横跳。墨西哥裔探员，好坏横跳。放翻拍的20年前，好片，但现在，唉
一星专给三位老廉颇，故事剧本很一般，整体也比较平淡。
说实话若不是这类片子这十几年来太多太多还真的是不错的啦。诶😩要啥有啥，正义伸张！噢耶还行啦，这年纪真的辛苦的哇！⭐
连姆·尼森自飓风营救1之后开始狂拍类型片，结果一片更比一片烂。身手早已不再矫健，所谓的特工片，实际上已经接受不了他缓慢的动作。
绝望。荒漠戈壁滩，再多的黄金有啥用。据说，某星球上都是黄金元素。
大叔难得狗带，贝鲁奇花瓶，流水线到要靠火苗镜头凑时间
浪费时间。就像泡过十八道水的绿茶，极其乏味。
一部可以看看的电影。
看到不到一半就猜到大概结局了，因为大叔的借口实在是太烂了逻辑不通，螳螂捕蝉，黄雀在后，边看一直期待着有什么惊喜或者意想不到的反转，结果真的就那么点屁剧情拍得又臭又长足足90分钟，强烈不推荐
