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.
一个老头。一条狗。一个机器人。末日世界生存大挑战。看得有点窒息。
科幻的外壳家庭的主题，没有特别复杂的情节和人物关系，但余味很长。除了汉克斯很强的独角戏外，都是日常家庭可见可触摸的感受，机器人也相当于人生中的父子关系。但关系处理很细致到位，和看日本的家庭电影一样的感受，其实是有相通之处
被感动的是机器人的人性，按一个人来写机器人，一不小心就容易强加于机器人人性，电影拿捏的挺好，智能和笨拙同时在杰夫身上。当狗狗也死去，杰夫看怎么办呀……
电影里女人和孩子都死了，因为要抢食物。
末日废土上的公路逃难，像极了《荒野生存》《老人与海》《我是传奇》中孤独求生的故事。太阳耀斑爆发，人类与人工智能、动物之间缔结了比人与人之间还相互信赖的依存关系。呆萌纯真、充满好奇心、喜欢效仿“大人”、热爱探索又到处闯祸的杰夫像极了为救大哥而被迫出生的二宝，必须要早熟、懂事、甘于奉献又要磨灭自我。几处伏笔差点以为要黑化，幸好一路治愈到底。人类文明的荒原上再现蝴蝶蹁跹，芬奇穿起正装在太阳伞下与杰夫聊天，那一段拍得实在太美。汉克斯真是老天爷赏饭，从疫情中脱险后连脸上的沟壑都会演戏。
年度最佳。这部电影比起「讲好了一个故事」更适合用「讲好了人类的一个行为」更为合适。先行者对弥留之人往后生活的担忧以及希望被嘱托者快速成长扛起家庭的迫切，杰夫的诞生、芬奇的教导与发怒，这些行为情绪背后所承载着的情感都太精准了，温暖又残酷。杰夫只是人的意象，只是载体，因为后生的人无法快速成长，因为现实的环境也没有末日来的无助。所以这并非末日科幻，而是人类爱意在生死离别那段时光的澎湃汹涌。
一人一狗一机器人一机器狗，我想说，除了环境比较恶劣，这简直就是向往中的生活啊。。。
值得静下来慢慢欣赏。养狗人哭爆
末世废土设定的公路科幻片，尤其在疫情期间看特别能relate. 一个机器人的出生和快速成长，学着像人一样生活，思考，承担责任。在这个世界里，人是危险、复杂、不可信任的，唯三可信任的是自己的狗勾和机器人。不过在残酷的环境里也有暖心的温情和浪漫，在旧金山终于能自由晒太阳，让蝴蝶飞到手上那段泪目。多希望Finch也能亲眼见一回金门大桥啊，听"suspension cables singing in the wind". P.S. 片头和片尾都出现了American Pie，用得不能更贴切。
在隔离期看到这样的片子真的很暖，俗套但有用
大过年的，看的哭😭汉克斯真是yyds，想起了多年前的荒岛余生，如今是末日废土。Jeff有点像查派。整个公路片的最终有了一点恢复的希望。祈祷我在有生之年不要赶上这样的地球。
杰夫的皮质小手，感觉很有温度
虽然显而易见的是，《芬奇》隶属于科幻片的范畴，但我很难以此对待，我更愿意将它视为一部家庭亲情片和公路片的混合产物。所以当我们随着汉克斯这位美国良心漫游整个旅程时，会感到阵阵暖意。你会发现，不管是那条需要呵护的小狗，还是机器人杰夫，亦或者那个只会运输的小机器人，都给人一种治愈的能力，这是好莱坞拍摄这类影片百试不爽的绝招，总能让人为这些看似不起眼的小角色饱含深情。
仅一人一狗与一个机器人，却有种相依为命的温暖感
芬奇给杰夫的设定是帮助Goodyear，死前的愿望也是一样他们能友好相处。
6. 拖延症会错失看世界，必须说走就走的旅行。
对于同类的不信任，以致只愿意对一只狗承担责任，造一个机器人爱自己，是末世宅的慰籍。
~机器人一诞生就是bug，过于智能了，而且情节、人物关系真不是我的菜。。。
好温情啊，一人一狗一机器人。我想知道那个房子里的陷井指的是什么
好看，平淡却娓娓道来，以讲好故事的为重的电影。
