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.
一部挺有意思和儿童家庭喜剧故事。爱的付出与收获是相等的。孩子的世界应该就是如此吧。愿每个人南麟电子可以保持一份童趣。
感谢学校把我这个18女高中生当作幼稚园小朋友 很有童心 哈哈
前半部分看着还挺很有意思的，后半部分剧情直接崩了
挺温馨的，小演员不错，现在都喜欢儿童做主角的电影了嘛
5.8吧……剧情设定有点老套，马伯庸所有影视化作品感觉都空有逼格
非常非常套路的儿童（成长）电影，但是嘤嘤怪的小狗狗太可爱了。PS：巨型狗狗虽是萌萌哒还在也还是有些吓人的
如果爱可以让爱犬变大 那我家凯哥可以吃下整个地球了吧 哈哈 电影其实很一般 适合陪着小孩打发下时间 只是一则寓言小故事 看着电影里对巨型狗狗非常友善包容的人们 对比之下 不禁唏嘘 结合下当下某地入室直接杀害隔离家属的宠物 只能叹息而已
前半部分看着还挺很有意思的，后半部分剧情直接崩了
狗子又大又萌，谁会不喜欢这么可爱的狗子呢。
如果有一天你的宠物变大，大家会有什么反应，我觉得应该会真的抓去做实验，被抓去作研究，感觉可以搞一个大型宠物宇宙电影
典型的好莱坞风格轻喜剧，最后好莱坞式结局，恶人败的家庭式喜剧，没什么太大的亮点。
故事牵强，讲得也不咋地，不过也算是国内少有的院线类型片了。我老怀疑葛大爷的台词都是他自己现编的，到哪演嘴都那么贫，哈哈。
可以看，但是谈不上惊艳和巧妙，局中局的烧脑没有体现，平庸平常平淡，整个节奏特别赶，反正一群人急吼吼就找到了佛头，各种莫名的前因没有后果，怪力乱神群魔乱舞。几个演员也都是工具人，没啥发挥，雷佳音中规中矩，李现的声线让我出戏，就这样吧。
简单、温暖、美好的童话，谁不想要一只大大的、红色的、毛茸茸的狗狗呢😍片尾的画稿值一颗星
儿童向//so cute～ puppy heals～
沙发！剧情有些老套的儿童片，演员演技略尴尬，故事年代有些错乱，而且因为Jack Whitehall出演总有种脱口秀即视感。
很适合小孩子看，虽然“我们不一样”但是也值得被平等对待。成人看可能会觉得故事太简单了，而且也有一些魔法奇幻的成分。
在并不逼真的特效和各种套路设定中，还是有被可爱到和打动到。毕竟爱狗子的人总会不自觉带着滤镜爱这样那样的狗子——小可爱变大不还是可爱的吗，再巨大又如何，who cares？！
看到最后有点与现实的割裂感，倒不是因为特效，感觉是剧情有点低龄了。
哈哈哈哈哈 小女孩和大红狗的组合 就一定是我偏爱的口味了
