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)
真的还不错诶 打戏非常硬非常流畅 医院病房和公交车两场都非常好 期待有续集！肖三毛选角选得太好了 恨得我牙根痒痒 谢苗好帅呜呜呜
三星半。又一套老式大製作，上半主戲前極為輝煌，查案戲肉反而相對失色。全明星陣容其實不太必要。
摄影很不错。
为什么要改编？？为什么要搞这么多政治正确？？？气死书粉？？？
不愧是“上世纪”的经典电影，布拉纳爵士和他镜头里的波洛一样自恋。研究审查尺度都比研究本片来得有趣，你永远无法知道什么时候同性情节可以过审，什么时候不能。
比第一部好看，主角都是第一个被杀………加朵好美啊啊啊啊啊
谢苗没小时候可爱了，但是自带一种苏感…绑匪的三弟还考上过商学院，就这智商吗，绝了。
连风景都是绿幕合成的，实在看不出什么诚意……布拉纳老师真是用实力证明自己的奥斯卡提名有多水……
2.充满合成电脑特技的埃及景色，太虚。
比预想的好很多，但比期待的差了一点。1，编剧没有深入生活，福利院的孩子除了本身有名字的，全部都姓“党”，因为是党在养育他们，所以不会出现李红旗这样的名字，有点想当然了；2，虽然考虑细节在最后有了拿弓弩和猎枪的小喽啰，但是他们从“看到杀人惊恐”到“与JC对峙”的转变实在太快，逻辑崩了。编剧再走点心，这片子能更高分。
纽约赘婿好丑 难以想象社交网络里的他和现在的他是同一个人 梅芙和加朵为什么不在一起 美女就应该贴贴 加多一个人在里面操着一口美音
看电影的时候完全没想到啊……………………
怎么花了9000万美元拍了这样一部不痛不痒毫无趣味的电影？前面10分钟到底是为了啥？？？还不如不拍，全片下来成了菠萝一个人的独角戏，其他人全是无聊的工具人，加朵和艾米汉莫的角色真的是演技好差，其他的角色所有的行为和思想都是流于表面，最后10分钟的解密甚至还不如看名侦探柯南，看这样子幸好也没下一部了。
希望他可以闯出一片天地～成为一代打星～
1.电影演到丢失了红颜料就大致猜到凶手了。
看了个22元20220222日20:22点的优惠场，前排一对的男生落座时跟女生说“我特地挑的这个时间的场次”～呵，这算剧透嘛？
也请这位老师不要再拍了。。。对胡子的起源没有兴趣。
莫再翻拍了…想到了片子可能很平淡…没想到这么无聊…
确实没什么好看的，一来翻拍经典就是冒险的，何况是悬疑推理片，已经没有悬念可言；二来，通过布光就看出大部分镜头是室内拍摄，再合成户外景色，打折扣。而且很多服化道都出现历史错误；三来，表演也是没什么亮点，虽然明星阵容还可以，但缺少灵性。
个人英雄主义色彩让我给它减一星，但反正我是冲着谢苗的打戏来看的，所以看完超出预期。啊对了就算揪着个人英雄这点来说，这片子里公交车上谢苗跟王维申那段打戏甩尚气一百条街。
