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.
堪称日本华丽版《薄荷糖》，剧本、音乐、摄影、剪辑都非常漂亮，人物塑造又十分立体与有深度，全片弥漫出一种淡淡的惆怅和自然的哀伤
我也感觉到我把某部分的词语留在了2021年以前
爱和友情，勇敢，反派很反，正派很正。
也到了这样的年纪，开始忍不住回忆往事，片子本身中规中矩，倒叙回忆男人青年到中年时期的爱情友情工作，但还是挺想哭。以前以为大人是无所不能的，自己在慢慢成长为大人的过程中毫无实感，但突然有一天发现身边都是比自己小的才发觉“啊，原来我已经是大人了”才理解了大人的内核永远藏着一个孩子，好像是生命正反面，想要翻面听回A面时发现早已没法回头了，但又永远在背面支撑着我们继续往下走
总之，画面好看，音乐动听，如果忽略掉剧情缺陷的话，还是一部很不错的合家欢动画。
还是偏刻意了 / 想住这个情人旅馆(?
60分/真正诠释了什么叫期望越大失望越大，特别喜欢第一部，因此期待了本片一整年，结果最终show前的故事性很差，人物全面脸谱化，看得很无聊。我一直在自我催眠期待show，一定很好看，结果也不尽如意，完全没有第一部的那种惊艳感。希望别有下一部了。
故事的话当然还是没有第一季好，但是歌曲氛围感很棒，个人感觉最好的部分：波莎第一次飞天表演的那个This girl is on fire还有猩猩强尼的那个part，最后的那首i still haven't found what i am looking for，我不太了解这首歌的历史，所以并没有多震撼。
继续追梦，格局难度更大，这次有敢于向专家，向大鳄说“不”的挑战。
森义仁从《恋之运》开始就很会把握细微的情感，moegara的剧本也加分。相比坂元裕二那脱离地表太久又太工于心计的《花束般的恋爱》，无论是从剧本还是导演我觉得本作都更胜一筹。
这舞台特效没有在电影院看真的太可惜了，看看环球影城能不能考北京市政府的关系攻克这个引进的问题吧。
3.9 技术杠杠的，复杂的细节，丰富的内容，很多惊喜的视听亮点，可是剧本也要写好呀..第一部的成人群像太惊艳，这一部直接打回了合家欢电影，所以没有被震撼。
3.5。1995到2020，25年，足以让21岁的有趣男孩子长成46岁的无趣大叔。新千年的第一个早晨，她说完今度却自此消失，时间流淌过去，在重复繁杂无力的工作和生活里，那些偶遇或交往的人们或者消失或者普通，包括他，都“成为大人”。
最后歌舞的呈现其实可以更用心一鞋。歌单还OK，但是光唱歌了，和电影结合得并不好。
这不比春晚热闹好看！情节就是完成任务式顺拐，场景设计的创意至少得来个奥提吧。
用一部电影形容你现在的生活—我们都无法成为大人。承认自己终究无法成为自己想成为的人和看到同路人终究成为普通的大人，哪一个更幻灭？大概是后者吧。走马灯似的回顾自己的旅途，我到底是还没长大，于是甘愿被困在过去。往前一步退后三步，就这样反复。只有日本人能拍出这样的电影，琐碎但又丧到极致，无聊但又戳人心管子…
第一部是好故事里穿插着好音乐，第二部则是几个音乐拼盘里塞一个无法自圆其说的故事。凑个热闹吧。
小苏和佐藤一起唱尾崎丰的时候真的太好了，喜欢这一段。太好了让森山来演这一部，浅野堇太好看了。
3.5。1995到2020，25年，足以让21岁的有趣男孩子长成46岁的无趣大叔。新千年的第一个早晨，她说完今度却自此消失，时间流淌过去，在重复繁杂无力的工作和生活里，那些偶遇或交往的人们或者消失或者普通，包括他，都“成为大人”。
虽然是老套的励志故事，但是狮子出来唱歌的那一段还是浑身鸡皮疙瘩都起来了，感谢动漫电影，可以让我永远在成年人的世界里做小孩！
