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)
看简介是我喜欢的狗血搞笑剧，看完后很失望。就是这个题材怎么也能拍的这么无聊，最精华的有钱仔体会普通打工人民生活的部分草草带过了。最后也没懂得感恩。也没啥成长。搞笑也没搞笑到。。
阿拉伯司机真的是好人 我开始还担心他是大坏人！
周末大晚上被大数据安利的套路片我认了。克罗地亚真的好美，明年安排上。
无力吐槽女主的逻辑，你都知道前夫可能是杀人犯了还把自己和他放在密闭空间里跟他对质？你带着证据去找警察不好吗？发现房东偷拍你拿完证据去找警察不好吗，非要硬刚。自己又刚不过，我真的。。。。
【2.0】问题不在于真相站不站得住脚，问题在于即便真相站得住脚，即便这个故事能够逻辑自洽，它也还是很难看。
故事太乏味苍白，不好看，前1个小时沃茨救一个不想活了的男人，他在山顶暴风雪中快冻死了又作死把自己腿摔断还掉河里最后竟然还没死下了山自己开车跑了，WTF啊，后半小时两人碰了面，那男的诉说自己的女人死了还是跑了反正就是我好苦，沃茨说我忘了关煤气俩丫头都熏死了我苦不苦，故事结束。沃茨50多了PP还不错。
隔离第9天 抖音上刷到的看了一下 也不怎么好笑 剧情比较套路 没啥意思
Wnat a stupid and meaningless and nonsense movie
真的好喜欢法式喜剧。最后彩蛋哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
既然不是警察杀了你朋友，监控是怎么回事，监控出现了，后面再来反转，就很假了吧。结尾居然是女主干掉前夫，潇洒地走出家门？
说实话，女主跟男主直接这样坦白是非常危险的，毕竟谁都不能像电影里的女主一样能搞定男主。

拍成电影的话太不流畅了，交代的也很不清楚，前面一直懵逼状态
就很弱，逻辑啊剧情啊气氛啊都很弱。实在是有点勉强啊。
浮躁的社会和人心，需要静下心来，细腻温和的电影
片中对自然的拍摄我挺喜欢的！
一个半小时时长很好 再长就会没耐心了 风景很美 故事ok 不过都有监控了警察还能认错凶手也是有点扯
翻拍西班牙2016年的的《我们是贵族》，父亲还不错
但是坚持下去就好了。
但凡導演有一點想法整體會提升不只一個層次，現在只是僅及格的流水線網大。想到同類型的《一個小忙》，呈現手法相比出彩非常多。
