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.
他们成了贵族
P.S：最后的彩蛋着实把我气笑了，建议下一部别拍二战了，拍本拉登和小布什手拉手拯救世界吧。
虚伪无耻的英国贵族史观，恶心下作的抹黑方式，拉斯普京的芭蕾剑法是唯一的亮点，其他都是问题，都是漏洞的设定、毫无波澜的剧情、装腔作势的台词标签化的角色，以及钢铁版生硬的转折，我猜到了年轻贵族会死，没想到是这个死法。
俄罗斯传统舞蹈融入动作戏是最精彩的部分了。其他看着提不起劲。

算是食之无味弃之可惜的典型，不得不承认这在当下看确实有看到一丝与现实重合的感觉，但是整体对历史走向的意淫式解读实在是不太聪明并且异想天开；随时可死的角色倒是没什么问题，与俄方奸细对打时的舞蹈算是唯一能看的动作戏了；最后黑人仆人对白人主角说类似“很高兴原来的您回来了”，主角紧接着就开始大杀四方，所以暴力才是真面目，和平主义只是一时的软弱，这段也算是有些讽刺性了。
【YVR-Scotia】两星半。第一幕和战场部分明显和其余部分不搭，动作设计拖沓，反派形象刻板无趣（漫画也这样？），笑点尴尬，大boss太好猜。不过看到费因斯如此卖力，也是辛苦了。
这个分数还不包括列宁，只是感慨，第一部时的惊艳到现在已经荡然无存，沃恩大哥你就算把背景放到未来也比调侃耳熟能详的大战历史要好啊
马修借父子这条线所要传达的理念大抵是:
记住了两句台词：1.名誉是别人对你的看法，性格是你的本色。2.你们是服务生还是英国人？
什么煞笔玩意儿，气死我了，我有多喜欢第一部，就多恶心这一部。丧失了有趣只剩下假装的有趣和冗长的说教，混乱可笑的历史观价值观，我真的气死了。辛苦一帮叔伯大爷陪导演闹腾，但是真的太烂了。
节奏稍微有点乱，不过总体还是超出预期，还有点小惊喜的
可以看出试图塑造一个英国英雄宇宙的野心，但过于媚俗，技法太不成熟了
王牌特工越拍越差 糊到地心就是这么容易 可能只有最后几十分钟值得看一下。
看着他爸喝下那杯酒我就知道儿子要为单纯热血买单了，妖僧放弃新鲜可口的儿子选择了老爸那里真的哭笑不得，拉尔夫的魅力无人可挡哈哈哈哈哈！这部片子的反派也太弱了，这么弱的反派控制这么一批牛轰轰的人是怎么做到的被洗脑了？？？还有英国人也太能埋汰战斗民族了吧
俄国和最后悬崖段落的打斗着实有不少出彩的地方，但整体剧情也太多想当然，反转颇多，虽有一些铺垫，但观感也免不了部分稍显强行
咦我觉得还挺好看的哈哈哈哈哈，选角太有趣了。
历史真是任人打扮，当然知道这是虚构的，可往复如此，难免会产生些影响。
参与历史什么的，如果作为支线或者彩蛋还是可可爱爱的，作为主线剧情未免也太中二了些。Fiennes大叔这个年纪拍动作片儿也太拼了。前面铺垫有点儿长。打戏非常好看（好像比第二部好）。英国人对美国人的态度是一如既往的别扭又好笑。忘了有多长时间没在电影院看电影了。
虽然是结合一战的爆米花电影，但全程很多不按套路出牌的转折，观影过程还是充满惊喜的，荒诞搞笑配上一流的战争和打斗场面，我被娱乐到了，足矣．
