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.
倒叙确实让这部电影不那么普通了起来 过往人生啊过往人生 无数的碎片构成了现在的我们 "我在高兴时 会觉得很难过"
从现在的角度一步步回看从前，阐述了“我们是怎样变成今天的我们”，也曾经想过穿上披风去做超级英雄，长大却不得不接受成为普通人的现实，比起从一开始讲如何走到现在，回头看反而更让人觉得心酸，年轻真好
高级的倒叙，开始即是结束，收尾呼应的真好。我们就是忘了在哪个时刻就放下了坚持，变得普通了起来，而那个觉得普通最棒的伴也突然消失不见，像做过一场梦，泪留在了枕头上。找到了片刻《火花》的感觉。
最后flashback和剧照几张胶片很有青春感，森山的表演一如既往的神乎其技，构建了一条坚韧的情感动力。但初恋的选角却有点差强人意，整部影片像顽固的车胎追了几万里，却发现一早泄光气
真的很普通，吃饱了撑得才看，但作为文艺片的质感极好。
倒流几十年的时光，从有趣到无趣，熄灭的东京铁塔到房间顶上的星光，三十岁到不会长大。
好想把男主拎出来打一顿！重看，发现电影弥漫着很时尚的颓废感，似乎绝望成了年轻人中的潮流（主要源于森山未来的豆瓣影人图片比较时尚先锋（中性
橫跨25年，終究變成了一個普通的大人。滿滿的帶入感，生命中的閃光點停在青春的某些片段，無論後來過了多少年，再也無法發生超越年輕時那麼深刻、那麼充滿希望的瞬間。「遇到快樂的時刻，想要永遠停留在那一天」「深感認同」—— P.S.森山未來的外表駕馭了二十歲到四十幾歲的變化，毫無違和
整个故事还是有些过于规整了，和主角常说的一样，「普通」。从现在回到过去，发际线也逐渐恢复，青涩的时光还蛮有内味儿的。最后还是让我们坐上出租，回到现实吧，不过倒是也可以在中途稍作休息，有些东西还是没有改变的嘛～
很喜欢这种闭环倒叙的手法，就像从此刻的人生翻开了一本记忆相册，一边看着镜子里的自己，一边慢慢的让时间倒流，去回顾那些只属于我们自己人生点滴的瞬间
倒叙真的很加分，尤其把很多人物拼凑在一块儿看的时候，效果拔群，我们都知道自己无法变成所谓的大人，在平凡之路上渐行渐远，各有各的平凡，却偶尔还要在深夜奔跑感叹一句“本当に普通だ”
剧情比较轻描淡写不复杂，文艺青年报菜名也没觉得特别生硬，氛围营造得太好了，以至于看着看着莫名其妙开始掉眼泪，后劲儿好大……やっと、みんな普通なんだろう
为啥要给伊藤纱莉胸部这么久的特写..而且这个电影是如何做到2个小时只向观众传输了大概1个小时电影的信息量的。要不是拍摄还比较精良，大概只值3分了。
他骑摩托车摔倒在马路边的时候，陌生人开车路过，用自己的手帕暂时给他处理了伤口。那一段对于那天晚上的他来说，应该是很重要的“被关怀”的瞬间了。
人生啊，就是眼睁睁看着自己滑向普通却又无可奈何的过程。
想去住那个星空房间，像是另一个版本的《花束》，男女主相遇的地方那家西太后17年逛过，不知不觉快五年过去了。

世界上何止80%的人都是垃圾，至少98%吧，想说99%，但这个数字看来太吓人。
“你高尚的品味不会有任何作用。我受不了跟交情不好的人假装像朋友一样聊天，客人想回去就能回去，但我无处可逃。真希望我没遇到你。”拜拜
“我们总是在逃避中虚度年华，那些曾经的经历留下的只有疤痕。”
