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)
这是我见过最温和的抢银行，这是我见过最。不害怕的人质。30年前的80年代的南非，到底是黑人说了算还是白人说了算？麦格拉在民众中的心目中的地位是如此之高。
和《盛夏未来》有一定共通性，都是介由男同性恋还在挣扎身份认同或者情感认同的视角，真正去完成的反而是另一个少女的成长弧光。虽然它整体都要做得更虚幻也太美好，比起站在学校礼堂公开演讲撑同志这种白日梦一般的剧情，电影里拍出异性恋对同性恋态度最准确、真实的地方，应该是男主跳楼之后的那堂讨论课，当他不在场的时候，所有人都可以重新假装云淡风轻、毫不在乎，但前提必须是，他不在场。
自由的代价是一切。
西方主旋律电影，整个电影非常脸谱化，一看长相就知道性格的那种，但是矮子里拔将军，跟其他主旋律电影比起来，已经很不错了
所以卡尔文为什么不能每隔一段时间打伤一个人质以此为危险！
历史剧，解放曼德拉的之战，虽是恐袭演变的银行劫案，人性和种族自由的抗争以悲剧结束。穿插一场告密游戏。
谁是卧底，悬念未能建立。时代氛围塑造不足。当抢银行的类型片与民族解放诉求融合，出现了类型片压倒表达的苗头。
花和人都会遇到各种各样的不幸，但是生命的长河是无止境的。
代入感很强，很刺激万万没想到的是那结局还以为会抵挡第二波攻坚，结果自己走出去了
穷途末路，改变诉求，释放曼德拉，竟然形成了一个伟大的劫持。
这不是喜欢和爱的区别 是能硬起来和硬不起来的喜欢//我喜欢的是 BL以及安藤//我喜欢的是 男人以及三浦//神尾枫珠真的好帅啊
真实事件改编，节奏感非常好，全程无尿点。
是一场相互救赎吗？应该是一场最终的互相理解吧。
有两处被戳到但是同时觉得日本人对于“普通”的向往难以言喻
被自己的性取向困扰的部分太闷了，是那种有点喘不过气马上就想离开的感觉，离不知不觉屏住呼吸看还差一口气。以这个点切入讨论lgbt，很新奇。太喜欢啦又是同学都是天使的童话世界，而且谁会不想躺一下神尾弟弟的大腿！！！迷人的大眼睛！还是一个被动的性格 牛啊 多多拍戏哇！
代入感很强，很刺激万万没想到的是那结局还以为会抵挡第二波攻坚，结果自己走出去了
孩子啊，莫自责，莫强求，
很多细节比剧版更精致但是整体起伏太小了，剧版用皇后乐队几首歌串联起来还是比影版更惊艳，情节也更丰满。男女主角虽然更加青春靓丽但演技差剧版一个等级，山田杏奈说台词一直在点头，神尾枫珠哭戏远不如金子大地
小成本 讲述一个异乎寻常的神奇罪案 开端貌似两个倒霉蛋的逃亡 到最后谁是正方 谁是反派 导演讲述南非当年的社会 也许电影要讲的东西更多
所以卡尔文为什么不能每隔一段时间打伤一个人质以此为危险！
