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.
一般吧 原来那个时候那么多猎魔人 画风非常欧美，我不是很习惯。 但是猎魔人一直被当怪物， 这个就很正常，原著矮人啥的最后不也被人类清理，很真实。 片头那个3s的狼头 好帅啊
人设精美，维瑟米尔风流帅气，tetra美丽迷人又丰满。动作戏相当优秀，近程魔法和剑斗配合的丝般顺滑。维瑟米尔从孩童到完成猎魔人试炼成为猎魔人，到凯尔莫罕毁灭的故事，故事讲得非常顺畅，冲突合理，感情也很到位。特别是和伊利亚娜爱情故事有着遗憾和淡淡的悲伤。
写的很好剧本，世界观和设定都是猎魔人的味道，感觉可以作为猎魔人故事的先导片来看。节奏很棒，喜欢这个故事，最后湖边嘤嘤看哭。
猎魔人前传
说惊悚吧，他又怎么打都打不死，有机会杀的时候也绝对不杀。
音乐和分镜很出色，动作部分受制于剧情倒是不太有猎魔人的感觉。补上了凯尔莫罕毁灭的剧情，还能看到少年杰洛特。
战斗作画感觉就很熟悉一看果然是科拉的制作团队，Theo配Vesemir的音色感觉好低沉好合适！！！
剧情挺喜欢的，就是看的时候莫名产生了降世神通+鬼灭之刃的错觉😂，年轻的维瑟米尔好帅好帅。
杰洛特一定是因为脑子太好所以年少秃头的吧！
《在糟糕的日子里》（2021/国别：挪威）：
有点《鬼灭之刃》的感觉，但好像没有《鬼灭之刃》好看。
m21222：节奏稍显快，感动那一幕相拥。
有因有果呀，维瑟米尔这老头子年轻时这么刚的嘛 21/09/14
一般我不喜欢前传，因为回顾过去的事总会带着惆怅
当然，某种程度上，其中依然存在打动人的点，"用怪物打败怪物";「人心即鬼蜮」，最难打败的，是人内心的恐惧。但是，抱歉，平庸的剧情，唯一的选择，不得葆有《巫师》的精髓。
还行 整体剧情讲的很草。。喜欢lady zerbst
故事本身挺值得挖掘的，有阴谋、成长、执念、认同等等，但叙事节奏和表演很成问题。节奏很赶，没有什么喘息的空间，配音表演基本从头到尾一个语调，情绪的表达几乎没有，看着令人犯困。
最重要的是完整复现了游戏中从一而终的气质，Witcher的世界没有好也没有坏，只有无常的命运和无法逃避的遗憾。
好烂俗啊，大杂烩一样的。。。
维瑟米尔太让人心疼。Gay骆驼小时候居然是光头！！！
