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.
女主如果不是后期武力值爆表，她那把“我的天啊我发现了车里的小女孩到底谁是绑匪是不是你是不是你”心理活动刻在脑门上的眼神表情真的挺讨厌的
拍挺好的，也看好Havana Rose Liu
勉强两星。基本上按《王牌特工》模式来的，高手带菜鸟套路，两演员远没有前者好笑。
3.5星。小刺激，老套路。暴风雪环境不错。
反派不补刀与主角同罪，期待了半天的逆转期待了个寂寞
观感很痛，有小说托底，剧情还算不错。又想起人贩子，太该死。
女主长相演技都好像周迅，几个场面看着心尖儿疼快进略过
小成本小场景惊悚小品🫤前半段铺垫无惊无喜，ash真实身份暴露的转折点开始带节奏😦杀戮戏异常紧凑干脆🫣女主留下的毒品关键时刻起了作用🫢而且她真的不怕冷啊🤷🏻♀️
似乎所有的主角都有一个习惯，就是打倒坏人之后就跑，然后等着坏人起来抓自己，都看腻了。
没仔细看开头的时候还以为是致命ID，搞了半天不是女主的幻想😂 但关于人设的反转还挺有意思的（这时Madam说这片应该给小孩子看看😂
无厘头电影，确实有笑到，认真你就输了，但是开头确实有点让人无语，这也没啥手段呐，不纠结这种东西去观赏还算合格的喜剧片，三星半。
还可以 有几个小反转 女主有几个角度和镜头竟然跟蒋勤勤很像 好神奇
I do have some reputation:)
封闭空间电影投资更小，但对于细节、布局、反转的设计要求反而更高，不然很难把观众带进局中。以为谁都是温子仁吗？
像在看十几年前的惊悚片，暴风雪作为背景也没惊险到哪里去
逃亡过程十分惨烈，虽然没明星但整个故事扣人心弦，看得头皮发麻。其实故事与Hulu3月4日要上线的《Fresh》（新鲜）很相似，都是关于女性被绑架、被坏人欺负，在最艰难的情况下集中生智逃脱魔掌的故事，所以免不了一番恶斗。而且这种故事的结尾都不会手下留情，会真实呈现出女主遭遇的残酷性，真的是不断有生命威胁，但依然顽强抗争到底。两部电影的结局都是血淋淋的。本片不同的地方是女主Darby是救人的，不是被绑架的，但她首先要凭借智慧找到绑架者，还要想办法在没有信号、没有车的情况下救出被绑架的女孩。片子前半部有点慢，但只要耐心看下去，后半部非常精彩，情节很紧张，充满转折。有些暴力镜头也是难以直视。
一定程度上来说，节奏还算不错。但演员的一些奇怪举动着实有点摸不着头脑
一波三折 华裔演员主角加一星 这片觉得没有种族问题 有色都是好人 白种都是坏蛋
女主智商在线 勇敢又美丽 还可以 希望还能看到女主其他的作品
Thriller is not an easy one. At least this movie caught my attention. It was just too good to white guys by offering them too many excuses, and too sticking to look politically correct.
