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.
而且还能让你对几乎每一个细节感同身受——无论是宇宙的浩渺还是生活的琐碎无力
吊打最近几年一系列以东亚女性/家庭为主题浮皮潦草蹭热度的同类电影，一边是nothing matters，一边是i still want to be with you，母女的百年战争背后都有一个巨大的黑洞，她们有权逃避，但是却不。
9.人自我定位《天马行空》挺好，你偏得《瞬息全宇宙》，配吗？
当我们身处于互联网的时代，不论媒体还是周遭，无形中都鼓励着这个时代的人们表面化。而A24的瞬息全宇宙似乎就是这个表面化互联网时代的产物。当我们看着诺兰的电影（星际穿越）时，电影之中的情感与和解用“爱”来解答是可信的，因为星际穿越的家庭构成是简单的父女关系。而瞬息全宇宙的家庭构成设置是东亚华裔家庭，且不说国际语境如何，单论家庭中的LGBTQ含量已然足够复杂，东亚家庭的隔代裂痕更多不会是以爱的名义去理想的“和解”，更多的还是陷入无尽的深渊。多条故事线，似乎就是一个储力瓶，通过多元宇宙的形式不断加压，最后变成一碗鸡汤。但到头来拍得最好的是两块石头的对话，这是一个美好的譬喻，最终的一同滚落更像是东亚家庭最终的结局。
这是让人重新感受到电影的美好和伟大的那种电影！
喜欢的人可能会很喜欢。
前半段确实不错，多元宇宙的表现形式很新颖，后半段感觉玩儿脱了，说白了还是家庭伦理的内核撑不起如此庞大的外衣，各个宇宙的支线铺垫不足显得十分突兀，炫技的成分更多，总的来说更像一部神棍片
亚洲家庭与代际隔阂所造成的痛苦够华裔导演拍几十年了
A grand magnificent beautiful chaos, which leads to the destination of endless and unbreakable love. 想起我妈曾跟我说：“怎么办呢，我就想跟你在一起。”整个人哭成了傻逼。
本质是一部优秀的B级片，进入设定之后会笑疯。但被当做大片来期待和宣传了，所以部分口碑反噬在所难免。因为充斥其中的恶趣味和疯狂脑洞，并不是所有人都能接受；但是不时会出现让所有人为之惊艳的神来之笔，比如两块石头在亘古荒原中无声的对白。虽然外表是披着平行宇宙外表的科幻片，但内核其实是关于家庭关系的永恒命题，魔王女儿与困兽妈妈的对抗与和解。但最让我感触的台词来自于爸爸，“我总是看到事情好的一面，那不是因为我天真，而是必要和需要。只有这样我才可以生存下去。善良一点吧，尤其是当我们都不知现在到底怎么回事的情况下”。这句话，如同一句诗，献给这个如平行宇宙般支离破碎和让人困顿的时代。
脑洞很好，但是，无论在不精英文化主导的社会里，我都讨厌那种矮胖蠢丑黑的同性恋角色，我就不喜欢，搞你m的zzzq恶心人。
这是Rick & Morty的华人家庭版？只是核心观念和故事的内在逻辑仍是很平庸的。所以最后拖出＂天马行空＂四个大字时忍不住笑出来了。
1.全体亚裔都是什么鸟语，听中文得看英文，中国人比美国人难受
非常蠢。简而言之就是把现实当中所有的不如意都归咎于假想出的邪恶势力，来替代自己过往每一个细微的选择犯下的错；同时再假想出N个平行时空里的自己，通过机械降神的方式拯救现实当中无力挽回的困局，顺带还拯救了全宇宙。这种中二的梦只有目中无人到一定境界的美国人才会做吧。还整得花里胡哨的美其名曰「天马行空」，真的是搞笑。Ps:看完去搜了导演执导的上一部作品，果然我也是给的一星，从此拉黑不送。
大家是不是对讲“爱”的电影PTSD了？塑料小眼睛才是最重要的呀！看见每个时间和每个空间不同的自己，都同样面临问题；看见每个人，敌人与爱人，都有自己的生活中具体的所爱之物。我想这不算空谈了，它讲了非常具体的事儿。让我们少谈些主义，多理解别人！是吧。
从脑洞和类型的角度来说挺好看的，但是最后想讲的核心却过于煽情了……怎么说呢，总觉得中年女性也需要一次真正的反抗家庭，实际上她们才是被束缚最惨的，最后却以爱之名让她们和解，这我不太喜欢。所以还有一些感情分是给杨女士的
前半段觉得是一个脑洞片，后面越来越觉得想简单了，看到最后直接哭懵逼。非常奇妙的观影体验……最后懵逼了半小时左右，觉得导演已经把家庭中我最想表达的东西讲完了。
非常好玩，可是当代的家庭关系之难也够让人锥心。正能量解决方案太不动脑子了，懒！
In short，电影大概就是前半段提了那个终极问题，后半段尝试去回答它；我想，大概有点“醒过来”的人至少都会有几次瞬间触碰到生命的真相——意识到人生终究不过是熵增定律下走向虚无的一场徒劳，然后不同的人创造、选择或者相信了不同的解释和意义，宗教、资本、权利、智识、爱好等等等等，只是这部片子给出的we are family之类的无条件爱对方这个解真的有点泛滥了，我只能代表我个人说sorry but not convinced.
脑补无数部作品。恶趣味面包圈，还有两块石头非常《宇宙尽头的餐馆》。风格化慢动作MV风类似《告白》。后巷男女《花样年华》。冲上二楼打戏《杀死比尔》。女儿夸张妆容《买凶拍人》。手指俯卧撑《金瓶梅2008》。劈门而入《闪灵》。母女纠葛《青春变形记》。直接致敬《料理鼠王》不必说。观影观感也如片名正是everything at once。就这psychedelic的画风，不嗑几片拍不出来
