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.
彥綺說很像馬男波傑克，聽完想一下，也的確是美國動畫的脈絡，能用一堆超大卡市寫實化那種美國動畫，也是很厲害，也適合在聖誕節看。
对时政的嘲讽度拉满！很多以前觉得纯夸张的情节在后疫情时代都变成了现实批判，这个观感本身就很讽刺了🙂
热闹，喜庆，真正happy ending！李叔梅姨茶弟大表姐给全世界人民拜早年啦～
一气呵成 要啥有啥 结尾略俗但用笑点科幻弥补 教科书
你发表的关于《Don't Look Up》的短评，因为 含有激进时政或意识形态方面的内容，已被移除。
虽然很多讽刺，但估计被讽刺的人也不会看，看了也不会意识到自己的问题吧。
每一个点都是一记亮抽。只有梅姨演这么讨厌又嚣张的角色才能令人恨不起来。小李子胖了老了科学nerd了仍然是the sexiest。看到大家都是这么认出大魔王的我就放心了，我也是。号召不动大家了还是只有靠小明星，这么严肃的歌谱成这样还怪好听的。看一下进度条发现还有15分钟，觉得导演后面再拍就没什么必要了，不过导演其实就是要直球打到最直白。本片Jason记忆点真心深刻。最后，世界末日的各个片段里有甜茶的笑，太美，太甜
下饭喜剧符合预期 咱们群星献礼太平盛世 人家群星现屁地球末日 大家都有美好的未来
气候问题的焦虑；结尾的第七封印式的等待；数不过来影帝影后的卡司；看似讽刺了许多实际流于表面的无力；网飞的电视剧味道总是挥之不去。
ps.国语配音不错。有老翻译腔的舒服、自然的感觉。
很多时候这甚至不是一部电影，而是一个人借助电影的媒介逼逼叨叨2个小时自己对整个社会的一坨不满；而你接受的意愿在很大程度上取决于你是否能接受这两个小时无比高强度的信息流的冲击以及“世界末日不是什么值得好笑的”。确实作为一部drama完全不好笑是有失偏颇的，但这却完完全全正是我的type
The rich have always been doing this… the comet is just making it obvious and dramatic. 很喜欢 Adam McKay 的电影，但是这一部后半部份的处理过于 cliché 了有点无聊。有点像个讲到一半的段子然后就没了。但还是值得一看。
用一堆大牌放低身段把科技社会政商名流娱乐八卦…一次过玩个遍，不愧是勤奋好学天天看报刷手机的好编导，笑笑就好。
不管你是影帝影后还是流量小生流媒女王，最终归宿都是小品。
只能说是妙不可言，喜欢。在这个灾难类型片已经创作枯竭的时代从另一个维度结合讽刺喜剧扩展了边界，而且对于近几年时事热点的结合做得很流畅很到位，新闻直播间的部分就已经比过隔壁法兰西了。至于视角傲慢的批评完全就是闲出屁的观点。毁灭吧人类。
最早是在纽时科学版上看到说起这个片子，写文的编辑说自己曾经发布过小行星可能撞地球的新闻，当时一时群情激昂。本以为这是个科幻片，没想到是个闹剧讽刺片。讽刺的对象多多少少能看出来，娱乐至死的美国精神也能体会，但这样的片子不是我的茶，小李子和大表姐都是大学都没上过的巨星，演教授和博士生不能让人信服，白宫厨房休息间的陈设布置倒是看着和我邻居家里差不多。片子太长，到后来我一边倍速看一边干点杂事，都没整明白甜茶啥时候出场演了个啥角色。
简单的娱乐。讽刺幽默都是简单直白的，黑色成分非常淡。
前三分之一吧，上乘的讽刺小品，国防部长卖零食的段子我很喜欢。再往后就摸不着方向了。人物状态停滞不前，尤其是小李，基本变成节奏工具，情绪再难起来，而不尴不尬的家庭戏和恋爱戏简直搞错片场。周黎明老师评论说这片子升华不够，没有人味儿，说得有道理，尤其是从效果看，确实没升上去，一点人味儿没有。但我觉得恰恰相反，真正的问题是：竟然想升华？或者说，竟然想走温情超脱的人情路线来升华。如果索性不追求人味儿，玩转彻底，再精练些，反倒在喜剧层面有可能玩出境界。
被letterboxd上整页整页的高亮差评吓到。但均分3.2，其实还好，只是似乎不喜欢的人集体声音比较大。看了下批评意见主要是过于smug，condescending，并不能真正改变任何人的看法。这个也许是的，但电影这个东西就没有那么重要，意识形态批评当然可以做，评论家就靠这个吃饭呢，但把电影的所有讨论都拉升到activism层面来争论不休我感觉也有问题的。要批评的话当然是影片自省不够，结尾特别pat on the back地说“我们尽力做了一切了吧？”寻求认可，但更难去思考的确实是，left在整个过程中哪里没能做好导致了这个局面。这个反思是缺席的。但again，仅仅拍出有反思己方的电影（为所应为，悲惨世界，开战，破败工厂）也仍然不会改变世界，电影没那么重要。以及网飞的7500万巨资与明星云集不能代表作者就没有self aware影片内外的meta互文吧？恐怕恰恰相反吧
就...很真实。这不就是近几年美国总结报告么... 然后这片子在美国评分极低，烂番 茄56% 谷歌3.8 IMDB 7.2... 用评分表示：我不愿抬头看
