Michael Hanake meets the Blair Witch Project in Kim Gok's Exhausted, a vicious kick in the pants to everyone in the audience, all in the name of "style." A man meets a mute woman, and as any reasonable person would do in such a situation, makes her his prostitute. But the pimping is the least of our problems. As we get exhausted by the grainy faux-16mm camerawork, the film gets increasingly deranged. The closest thing we get to a sympathetic character is the pimp, simply because he's got too much self-respect to fuck a mute whore. Everyone else is either a gory mess, or a gory mess in disguise. Even the prostitute, which even a thug like Lars von Trier would make likeable, comes off as a delirious scary woman whose shrieks strike like blows to the jugular.
Kim Gok has seemingly abandoned the Marxist critiques of his short films, going instead for mindless brutality which culminates in an endless bloody freak-show involving, among other things, a pair of scissors going where pairs of scissors should not go. In the middle of the bloodbath, we get an extended long take of the beaten prostitute's near-dead face, but it does not elicit sympathy or pity. In fact, images of the victim only make us shy away in shock. (Indeed, the extended sequence led to continuous walk-outs during the Pusan screening.) The long take invites us to stare, but it assumes we're as sadistic as the victimizer (and the film) is. Meanwhile the sound-effects (mostly a rumbling bassline that shakes the theater) pulsates with pure wickedness. With Hanake, shock creates reflection, which asks that we be critical. Here, we only want to escape. I suppose Exhausted has some virtues; the shots of drilling machines and factories provide a mesmerizing phallic backdrop to the pimp and prostitute's pursuits. But everything else hurts too much. At least Kim Ki-duk lets us breathe. Exhausted makes Bad Guy look like Lady and the Tramp. (asiaarts.ucla.edu)
与虎妈和解之战——就是女儿当自强当自励（立，最后10分钟挺燃，就是其实小姑娘以前不也在做自己吗，矛盾没有太激烈的亚子。
拍得太好了！成长就像野兽，多好的隐喻啊。喜欢最后的设计，展现出了一个妈妈毁灭般的掌控欲，而美美也喊出了：我就喜欢男孩！我喜欢响亮的音乐！我喜欢扭动身体！实在过瘾。成长是个大麻烦，但我们总要面对。最后妈妈也终于明白：“你走的越远，我只会越骄傲。”
从头到尾疯狂输出价值观哪，满满当当，看的好累。这才是个小学生哎。猫熊的形象设计很可爱，但自始至终被强大的说教掩盖，完全无法拿出精力去好好体会这个萌萌的大东西。
皮克斯的又一部佳作，主角是个有脾气的小女孩，反抗与撒野的外在物化实体表现，那么多规矩和束缚，是成年人世界强硬施加的，小孩子不应该背负那么多枷锁。
是不是画风很熟悉。回头发现是《包宝宝》的导演。
艾玛婶真是一位睿智的女性、是这个时代最伟大的女演员之一。 I love you when you are old and grey. And I admire the sorrows of your changing face.
差点看哭… 你不用一味满足父母期待。故事整体单薄了点，但好处是轻松，属于那种满分的四星电影。
3.5，尽管前一个小时剧情稍显俗套刻板，但也为美美与熊猫分离那一刻蓄足力，就这一点打的很准，且输出的情绪充足，创作者找到了一个很好的主题切入，故事包装也贴合。nice
需要承认开头会不适，但越来越明确，真实而又有意思
然后，都是女的~
好想看演唱会啊！！！！！😭😭😭
小女孩电影。各种混搭。仪式最后非要回头再加上一系列闪回导致仪式不成功吗？非要把母亲的红熊猫召唤出来吗？非要关键时刻和朋友闹掰又和好吗？迪士尼的东西，越来越套路的，有点愚弄观众。
the further you go, the prouder I'll be
咒语太洗脑了！
导演前作的母题扩充，第三幕以母亲膨胀的控制欲作为大boss，再混搭青春期女孩熟悉的Y2K追星元素，饶有趣味，体现了百分百的作者性。然而整体太直白太想当然了，好像在对目标受众的小朋友群体用力喊话，不够张弛有度。推荐都看看幕后纪录片，全女性主创团队氛围相当快乐，很加分。（Disney+订阅真香）
对这份工作太理想化了。不过我也相信，高端的鸭，应该是半个心理咨询师。
太过中式典型到近乎令人不适的程度。srds谁能拒绝毛茸茸的小熊猫呢！
90年代Boyband唱歌的时候我起了两层鸡皮……
好看！虽然是华裔主角，也引入了不少东方文化，但内核依然是好莱坞式，不过青春成长的阵痛不分东西，各种元素融合得非常自然，期待导演的其他作品！
7.5分。理想化的嫖客与理想化的性工作者。仿佛做了一个多小时的心理咨询。
