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)
和国内大多数青春无脑恋爱片一比，简直是鹤立鸡群，自然就高分咯
所以结局就是 婚姻--女孩自由的坟墓
不婚不育 永葆青春…Marika最后得到想要的答案又有什么意义呢 即使是心里想要的 也已经回不去了 不要妥协啦！
宗教的设计像是个命题 比起违命轻松的多 在两个人感情的处理上非常纯粹自然 这点确实不错
所有我以为“嗯 导演该让杰米发火了”的地方 杰米都没发火 天使一样的性格 表达自己的同时不会用火气去伤害别人 玛丽卡真的在想办法了 就是这个解题思路太emm了
在大陆青春片智障和矫情的语境内，我愿意给满分。第一次被国产青春片燃到流泪，太好了，全方位的好，并且情节上没有什么企图心，简简单单就很扎实，剪辑、表演、配乐都对得起观众。
优于同类国产青春片平均水平，虽然整个故事还是有很多尬点，细看而言一边说着“女性阴柔男性阳刚”，一边插入去性别化的表演，自我叙述中存在矛盾之处，但整体上抛弃传统性别印象去做自己想做的事的立意还是值得鼓励。
这是现在lgbt电影公式化的结局吗？和剧情发展好像两码事，故事加了宗教因素并没有多一重色彩，反而像为了be而存在。
没看到特别多性张力和感情张力，感觉之前关于宗教和生活方式的问题不解决…两个人肯定还是一地鸡毛…
3.5！禁忌感拉满了！为什么她们摩擦一下手我都感觉是在do？not gonna let me go?
谁遭一次遥远小镇的疯逼邪教徒的爱，谁都得一辈子来回舔……
主动的是你，放弃的是你，多年后放不下的还是你
被撞破前的部分实在是太动人了，值得满分。后来的部分不作评价。打分仅作标记，不作推荐。
三星半吧，作为翻拍片，前半部分本土化得相当不错了，和日版相比，照搬不过来的部分都做了比较合理的改动，没有硬来，也不尬演，后面改得我目瞪口呆，如果不胡来我本可以给8分的。据没看到IMAX场次的我估测，除了海豚那一段，没啥必要做IMAX，本以为片子最容易失败的地方在于选角，没想到是最成功的地方。Ps，有人骂这个片子卖肉卖腐，我咋没看出来，按理说我这雷达应该是宁搞错不放过啊，长津湖我都看到吴京朱亚文隐隐的cp感了。20211001北京槐房万达
只是让人心碎
总感觉是另一个轮回要开始了…
好啊又是拉拉👩❤️👩你们爱而不得的女本子还要虐我多少次呐...太细腻太真挚的感情，可是一个人的信仰真的无法支撑两个人💔是今年看过除了小姐之外最好看的姬片了！
back hug真的好苏啊 以及J好漂亮又帅又美
没明白为什么订婚了还要让女朋友留下…… 如果信仰令你痛苦是否还要继续信仰呢……
以为在蹦床上努力空翻，就能翻过平庸。在泳池里使劲憋气，就会不再普通。最划算的不是逃掉了自习，而是钻进泳池。最珍贵的不是追上了公车，而是没错过你们。最大的收获不是转体三十七周半，而是为平庸且普通的自己努力了一次。我们可以做海洋公园的劳力，被婚恋网站欺瞒，却不能被取消青春的表演资格。
