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.
今次这部完结篇怎么说呢？说起来要写影评的话也真是没什么好说的，就是那种看完之后没有有感而发的感觉，没什么特别的感触要说的话……而且这部完结篇我给的分很低
还是比较有新意，并不纯是恐怖，悬疑反转做的不错
空间非常有限的小本恐怖片，从复杂的时空交叠设计看理论上想法不错，然而拍出来的结果属实是碎了一地。本来设计就已经很乱了，导演还非要秀操作，直接把故事秀没了。好好拍个悬疑恐怖不丢人啊……
用十分故弄玄虚的拍摄手法说了个剧情极其简单的故事，全剧信息含量极其稀薄；东亚系恐怖片肉搏驱鬼最为致命
也太平庸了，死者但凡是个穷人，根本打不赢官司。
开卷考试似的 莫名其妙就知道了谁是凶手 乱扯似的
开场悬疑氛围很足，中间剧情到结尾实在无聊！时空重叠，带降魔杵的现代驱魔人，多重性格的鬼魂，只有流于表面的恐怖气氛！导演以为扮鬼画符就是恐怖片，太低估观众了吧？
挺奇怪的片子，熟悉它的套路之后并不恐怖。刷一遍能看明白影片里直白的结论，但是主线在一惊一乍的叙事中被打乱了。
一部分像是《昆池岩》，然后加上错乱的时空，多次穿越，但整体观感不好。。。
导演水平不太行，手法老套，时空交错的设定也没有怎么发挥出效果。
中规中矩，最后还是金钱获胜，什么真相，什么律师都不如钱来得实在~
其实拍的挺好的，过程有点《盗梦空间》和《恐怖游轮》，男主一开始进房子前，就已经死了。最后结局又像是致敬《寂静岭》，走不出去了。
恐怖氛围营造还可以，很多惊悚镜头。但是故事太单薄，就是已死之人困在死亡之地无限循环……我以为主角至少有点本事的，结果想多了，也是平凡人，光有法器啥也干不了，最终自己送人头。
如果被害的女孩没有一个有钱老爸，如果这律师没有耍手段，纯粹的按照法律程序来走，这个小伙子铁定是要被冤枉入狱了。所以啊，法律漏洞太大，只能约束愿意遵守的人，然而愿意遵守的一般又不违法。所以，呵呵呵
恐怖氛围吊得挺好，莫名其妙就结尾了，一堆坑不填，剧情真是啥也不是。2.5
但是，作死小分队的设置，各种灵异的设置，毫无新意。编剧吃屎呢吧，这根本就是个辣鸡片子。
剧情简单，传统的港片，但是这个案例也太单薄了。我觉得整个电影最亮的就是最后：主角的演讲，其他什么逻辑，配角都是工具人。
全程沉闷节奏一般老梗炒来炒去，氛围也营造的一般，不太喜欢。
男主劣版康斯坦丁，故事企圖走所謂「燒腦」路線然而簡單劇情都沒講好（。不推薦。
岛国夸张的表演很有意思，难得觉得小混混挺可爱系列
