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.
剧情简单，其偏要画公仔画出肠当观众弱智，没有了幽默桥段，纯chok ，无聊
邓瀚宗坏得彻底，干掉刀疤，逃狱兄弟一变味，吴卓羲这次不是冲动的性格了，沉静，城府极深，最后还是给邓sir利用😂，还是欣赏滚筒哥和刀疤的男人之间情义，之前逃狱兄弟帮柏天男和张继聪都前作和这部出狱了，打了个漂亮的酱油，刀疤死了，估计都没有“逃狱”大计了
她一辈子都在探知如何被尊重，以及如何尊重自己
接近2个半小时 感觉就在等最后Aretha出现 献一颗星
三部打卡完毕 感觉还可以的 剧情属于能看得下去的 不知道还会有第四部吗哈哈哈
导演到最后估计不知道怎么收场了，所以镜头一转，枪声过后，留下个孤影，算是了悬念：结果怎样，你们自个想吧
剪辑差点意思，但是目前这分也太低了，拉一把
虽然每一步的逃狱都不能让人眼前一亮，但是好在人物塑造的都很鲜明，暖暖的兄弟情真让人羡慕。
上次看陈豪黄德斌谭耀文是争分都秒
听过很多她的歌曲，还是第一次了解其人的生平，也是不断努力找回自己的旅程，只不过困难很多很多。
叙事像放映幻灯片一样，把个别事件节点按时间顺序“一粒一粒地”跳跃带过，像是整理出一个生平事件清单，拍完一件事，就打个勾交差，深入的心理描写则欠奉，而只是一般水平的好莱坞导演例牌——“画公仔画出肠”的说故事手段。像是拍一套激励课程的“教材”，多过拍一个人。庆幸的是 Jennifer 没有被平板单调的剧本钳制，琢磨演出 Aretha 在青年时期“不知道自己真正要的是什么”，撑起整部电影。
比较确信我有全程在看，但有些情节感觉交代的不太清楚，但都能够通过上下文语境补充。。。大概传记片都一个样吧。有点cliche而且拳头硬了。
导演叙事功底太差了，好好的演员阵容拍的像个流水账，也没有把传奇天后富兰克林的个性和人生展现出来，东一下西一下，每个人物出现的都没有交代清楚，实在是可惜
麦琪秋全额出资拍的这电影吧……要演技没演技，要剧情没剧情，居然还是大女主戏
《逃狱兄弟》系列连拍三部终于也是画上句号了，作为网大，这三部都是还可以的，这一部少了高智商的逃狱计划，但又多了很多细节，不过导演为了让观众都能看出来，将细节重复又有些刻意的感觉，刀疤哥第一部大反派，第二部中立，第三部彻底洗白，不过坏人转变好人却没有好下场……如果要拍番外篇的话，还是更期待刀疤哥的故事，以及他那个未谋面的女朋友
比较标准的商业片。“法律会惩罚你”的结尾大无语，高潮戏比较疲软，虽然全片时间不长节奏也算快，但没什么记忆点。
故事有一些不太对劲的地方。但比较完整，娱乐性够，可看
太老套的小孩子长大当杀手的故事，而且bug过多。导师被杀，怎么躺着一个人光看脸糊烂了就认定了，年龄看皮肤啥都总能看出来吧，都70岁的人了，种种太多了
马丁·坎贝尔也只是把动作戏拉回及格线，但对于这样本来就不咋需要剧本的B级片，他老人家估计也无甚想法做更多处理吧。
众多TVB大佬云集，阵容给2星，剧情顶多1星，监狱风格被拍得一团和气，看得我都想进去住，越狱难度比我上班请假都简单😪
