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.
剧中剧的设置还是挺有点小可爱的，女巫身份颠覆的反转也有点意思，但是整体故事依然比较儿童化
喜欢女主，多给一颗星。故事一般，但恐怖片也就这样啦，给个六分及格分
国产鬼片逃离不了的命运：亲情牌、阴谋论、政治梗
想要吓人，但感觉只想通过音效营造出恐怖气氛，这点真的还得向温子仁多加学习。剧情也看得我一脸懵逼，一开始弟弟为什么要在树林里杀告密的人呢，又说把女儿抓走了，干活的没看到有女的…太多bug了，女主的演技也有待改进，相反小六子演技不错啊。整体对于国产恐怖片来说还是可以的了，虽然并不恐怖，还煽情。但是中途看着还是觉得有点无聊。
老套的女巫拐小孩的故事，给小朋友看吧，有几个画面还真有点相对重口，给大人看吧这些画面又太柔和，所以这片的受众是PG和PG13之间的小朋友？
前天看的 忘记评价了（我直觉很准；也有可能这几个民国片是一样的套路
第二部比第一部《城郊的第一边》好笑多了，最有趣就是他们在酒吧讲的那个关于鹦鹉的笑话，还有商场卡丁车追逐赛还是场香蕉面包的道具赛，拍得很新颖，另为还有每部双男主必有的睡一张大床房的搞笑情节，开头勾引心理医生那段也蛮刺激的，车顶割头笑死，最后讨厌黑人的白人市长自己也顶着一张大黑脸太讽刺意味了，法国这个系列10年出一部，演技也不减当年，搞笑情节更是有了大大的提高，他们的对视也越发感性了，期待第3部
巴黎景色很美 芭蕾版艾美丽在巴黎 但舞蹈部分远没有当年黑天鹅的水准 更不用说惊艳了
人们只会相信它们看到的不顾一切去按自己认为的做。
喜欢这种破迷信的鬼怪悬疑片，惊悚有了，悬疑有了，顺便还能破个迷信，人心的肮脏恐怖比鬼怪可厉害多了
前期迷雾重重，气氛渲染还不错，后期女主恢复记忆才拨开迷雾，在弟弟身上看到了人性本善。总结：亲情不可割舍，人心最可怕！
儿童故事也可以很有哲理，它显然不是。拼凑大于故事，是以电影支离破碎。

儿童向电影，告诉我们小孩没事别写恐怖故事，更别离家出走。话说特别讨厌那个黑人女孩，干啥啥不行，闯祸第一名，遇事不好拔腿就跑。另外那个小孩讲的恐怖故事一点也不恐怖，
女主角演技很不错，性格也很好。剧情简单不拖拉，不过结局有点让人难过了。
剧情确实属于比较老套的，但是网飞超级清晰的画质欣赏法国的美景实在是太棒的享受了，特别是悬崖边的飞车追逐戏，简直是速度和美景的双重享受，还有法国田园风光的航拍，都非常好看。个人最喜欢的还有超市卡丁车的追逐戏，看完非常想尝试但是现实不允许。
悬念的推进稍显不足 但是值得四星鼓励 这水猴子的妆化的也太牛了
？？？？？？拍的啥啊？？直不直姬不姬？上位也上的莫名其妙 最后和解也莫名其妙 心灵鸡汤也不知所云 太烂了吧
各种标签…以及太冗长了…唯一高光部分是开着悍马在抄近路追逐那一段…
