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)
我12岁的妹妹最后看哭了！整部电影我却觉得很慢，看了好几次进度条。北京大学的片段似乎与娄烨的不差多少。
“那段清晰而又绵长的记忆，是我这辈子最快乐的时光”
这个电影其实题材还可以，卡司演技也都还可以。
从腐烂尸体上飘出的一缕残魄，仍带着尸体的衰朽气味
故事和主题其实是比较一般性的展开，依赖情感在压抑处滚动的力量创造情感的体验。但我就很吃日式剧作这一套，那些在连接处，忽显忽断的情感指向，被演员们对剧本的深情演绎积累和爆发出来，紧绷成一根伦理和社会规则相冲撞的颤动的弦，当然也是很传统社会派的做法，但又有何不可呢，社会派的议题，也需要自我较劲式的人文关怀，这和观念思辨是不一样的，懂日本人的世俗情感就懂这样的“无聊”表达，相反是不会懂的。
看了别人的评论才知道原来这是小说改编，ma，ano，有时候我还是不咋理解日本的思维，老人总想不给国家添麻烦，但实际上本来就造成了麻烦，而且社会福祉本来就应该是通过税收来调节财富来帮助需要被帮助的人。。。
最是人间留不住，朱颜辞镜花辞树。如果到老王在墓地看到年轻的郭小鲁就直接结尾，会明快很多。
除了清原果耶和阿部宽以外再无亮点的电影。林遣都为什么要接这种脸谱化角色没想通，佐藤健这表现也能提日奥我只能说日本艺能界男俳优的水平下滑的有些严重。片子立意是往深刻去的，可是把主题解构以后用来展现的手法可以说是拙劣。与其这样还不如拍成警匪悬疑电影，商业上卖座，题材上讨好，结构也能多样化。而不是抱着所谓“冲奥”的傲慢拍的不伦不类。
前半段挺好的，后面情节就比较奇幻了！
有些类似《本杰明巴顿奇事》
三星半，灾后重建、社会保障、弱势群体立意都在，只不过前部分和后部分有一点割裂，最后女主倒是挺出彩。
砂糖的造型不咋好看，宽叔也机器人了点，kento在线，果耶妹子感觉没以前好看；至于eita，还是那种贱贱的感觉，
典型日式社会派推理。无法理解宁愿饿死也不寻求救济的社会心理，台词和演绎上也挺矫情。但这种类型的电影小说的存在本身有时候比内容质量更有意义。
没有恸哭，却悲情得压抑始终……在天灾中，生与死像是被随机选择，去问“为什么”得不到任何答案！除了接受现实，自我吞咽痛苦再，凭意志，慢熬着时光消化，没有别的任何办法。一旦偏激到片中的孤女小干那样，不认命去迁怒他人，只会再酿人祸～这世间，不是什么都能判个对错。
分线拍摄手法 其实讲的就是领低保的事 以及公务员的问题 才看到前面就猜到了凶手
感情厚重。看完我浑身冰凉。比起希望 世事好像尽是无可奈何和残缺。唯有果耶小妹妹的复仇来得快意。
说几句关于导演的吧，导演还是让人很惊艳的，好多镜头的构图都超美，男主和丁萌萌有一张很像这个杀手不太冷
永远都中王珞丹的毒。 高粱饴，棒棒糖。 强行加上干细胞，整得云里雾里的。败笔
感觉融入了好多电影的元素，男女主演技都蛮不错的。丁萌萌太太太可惜了吧，即使打了年轻药之后的郭小鲁好像也没有年轻到哪儿去啊...两个多小时着实有点太长了，中间一度差点看睡过去
电影啊
