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)
三星半，不评价东出昌大私生活和本人的前提下，其实他这次饰演的自律神经失调症患者还挺好的。喜欢开场跟随着滑板少年灵动飘逸的长镜，遍布全片的奔跑镜头既是逃离又是释放。两条线的交汇有点晚了，而且交汇之后剧情也有点散
blue那部我就觉得东出会演戏了，夜以继日和唐田明明烂透。
拍得过于平淡 几乎没有任何高潮与该有的激情 想来这题材理应很抓马 结果全篇充斥着别扭感
我看懂了，又好像没看懂，很多电影的杂糅，估计是要再看两边才能捋顺深层逻辑，等我捋顺了再来吧
两条故事线首次相交的镜头还挺有意思，剩下的滑板跑步镜头重复到让人怀疑摄影大哥是只会这一种technic吗
救命，老乔，收手吧！什么时候才能认清自己真的不适合导电影！！！
女主最后的笑容和里面哥哥说的一些小故事太恐怖了 幸好有人陪我看 自己看我要尿了🙃
原始森林总是很有悬疑气氛，是创作谋杀案的好地方，可惜导演和编剧没把握住。
视听语言和剧本让我觉得是最拉分的地方，演员演技不是很好但是视听语言营造的氛围感一定程度上弥补了这一缺点
老雷的处女揍支持一下 本来看没啥演员就不准备看了 一看导演儿我才想起来这个就是那个作品 挺用心的 作为第一部来说该到位的也到位了 画面风格都可以 结尾有点bug 剧情还是有些慢 拉裤夸了些 加油吧
人物的成长细腻，符合逻辑，交代的清楚，这点好过我的天才女友
总感觉缺了点什么，属于那种特别平淡无奇的，没有高能抓人心，实景拍摄不错
2.一堆足够“旧”的书。
乔治•克鲁尼是不是生活得太幸福了，故事永远选这种，拍得一点痛楚都没有。我没看过原著，我真心希望原著就这么温吞水，如若不然，那一定是被克鲁尼爹味十足地一笑而过了。
外形挺俊朗，淡淡的忧伤。现今社会，谁还没点儿心病呢？呵呵
淡淡的生活流，奔跑时的喘息和海风拂出的草之韵响、没有开始也没有结束（看到北狐又如何？均匀洒在面部的白昼日光让这个场景充满了虚幻感）以及被（极力）平平带过的死亡。有几处很不错的视点交错融合——开头车内浮空镜头里横向飞逝的街景到小泉出场后随滑板运动前进的跟拍直至人物中景作结；四人无意识的第一次交汇（或者错过），草坡的中景既在镜头的平面上划分为两部分，也同时在空间的远近法隔出两个区域；小泉和弘斗的跟跑切到前景中三人跑步的跟拍镜头再切到惠美骑电动车的跟拍（其他三人再次被划进草坡的后景）。
本·克鲁尼组合这次有点儿拖沓，都岁数大了还是怎么滴，搞这种小男孩童年回忆的路数，地域性太强。

不会游泳的男孩最后还是跳崖了
什么都好，但国产科幻题材真的不用刻意从影调上模仿……
