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)
流那么多血应该是割到动脉了吧？还能站起来开枪？？不如停在这里不要反杀
3.5，太平了，不过劳模姐的演技真的好棒！TT
everybody wants to be loved
在精彩的剧情和表演之外，这电影的美术和设计都做得好棒！每个年代的风格都体现在所有细节里。真是厉害啊……五星好评
同样表演一种做作的、神经质的角色，劳模姐确确实实是在表演，而ks则是一种被上身般的自以为是。虽然整个电影都不知道在讲什么，导演的把控力也差到极致，内容和观点都为零，对女性或者边缘群体都是一种硬性的关系。不知道创作的出发点到底什么，而更可怕的是到最后也没找到。
剧情如同强力压缩包 加菲真的不太适合这角色 劳模姐继茉莉牌局后又一次惊艳到我 影后提名实至名归
劳模姐的演技确实优秀，值得一座奥斯卡，然而凭借这部平庸的作品封后我是不服气的。
劳模姐的表演是出色的，希望好运，拿下奥斯卡影后
确实是为劳模姐拿奖打造的 故事和人物开发非常浅薄 特效化妆也让两位演员像极了胖头鱼 加菲也演出了深柜的感觉 劳模姐前半段表演特别套路化 老年时期逐渐感觉才出来了
这种人算是骗子的最高境界了，把自己都骗了，都不觉得自己是个骗子。
3星半吧，节奏太慢，跟踪的部分不知道是不是有删减，就感觉像女主的臆想，不太真实。结果真相浮出水面时，反而变得悬浮。女主的戏好，可惜男主没太接得住。
感觉他们两个能成功募集到那么多钱就是一个巨大的骗局....
一个仿佛糅合了去年《偷窥者》和《门锁》要素的故事，整体行进得有些按部就班。最先是烘托女主角在陌生国度的种种处境，对语言的不熟悉、不被相信的遭遇诉说以及失踪的邻居和再次引起怀疑的心；接着是扑空和“狼来了”的转折，末尾则指向必须解决的痛快。尽管所有的过程都几乎能想象，但透过公寓内外、街角前后的空间展示或是借由与伴侣相处的生活状态从而烘托的无助还是足够行之有效；它没有给予更复杂、更大的展示，但却做好了自己想要完成的事。
如今的颁奖季真的味同嚼蜡，没有灵魂没有共情，只剩表演了
只有妈妈才是人间清醒。利用传教骗钱，洗脑，哇，这和传销有什么不一样？把自己的私欲说成是上帝的旨意，居然大家都信？靠一张嘴皮子吹，再加上有感染力的表演，就是财富密码了？妆发化得确实牛逼，演技也没有问题，但我仍然不认为是部值得一看的片子，想了解真实故事的话我为什么不去看同名纪录片？
尾随、监视、观众-男主-男性社会的漠视。全程紧张，super good tension :-) 袋子里的头颅让人冷汗直流…
太精彩震撼，执着的塔米菲才是灵魂，可是保持亢奋的状态的同时也付出了沉重的代价。这个社会诱惑太多
还原度应该还行，劳模姐很卖力了，但对主题确实就一般，touch的点没有
PS：加菲接班老汤指日可待
