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)
有点助眠效果，建议睡前观看，如果导演拍这部片真的纯粹是拿工资给瞬息全宇宙筹钱（导演是瞬息全宇宙制片人），那这部电影的存在倒也不是一无是处，但是作为特工片实在太套路，对比这两年努力玩出花样的007和碟中谍就能明显看出问题了，而本片无论是人物背景/武器/动作戏/特工与反派的各种设定都没有一点点新颖的地方，真的除了无聊想不出更贴切的评价。电车那场打戏还算爽，虽然不如尚气那场公交打戏
还是和三十年强一样的反派智商和弱智情节，只是正面人物越来越开挂了，阵容越来越厉害了，制作越来越烧钱了。但是，爽啊！谁能不想看紧身衣的桃总呢
很无聊，昏昏欲睡。没有盾牌的美队，啥也不是。
剧情烂归烂，但爽还是爽啊，简单粗暴爽就完了~
哈哈，完全是一部超英片！除了一些逻辑硬伤，整体节奏非常好，破坏大战酣畅淋漓！小女孩太漂亮了，城堡之战高司令有股敢死队史泰龙的影子，整体很精彩，够格爆米花爽片
花里胡哨。Julia Butters是真美啊
看了两天才看得完，除了超帅的打不死的高司令以外，真的毫无记忆点，安娜也没有007那么惊艳。罗素兄弟真的太无趣了，镜头无趣特效无趣故事最无趣。
卖拷贝都已经卖不出去了，居然还会有人步他后尘？？这片里所有人说话的腔调节奏，都会让观众会心一笑，笑出声就是说果然还是这么老套啊。打斗不错，但每当你觉得不错的时候，情节又会突然转向可笑的方向。两小时不至于看睡着，就像有人拧着你耳朵看下去。不花钱还是建议打发一下时间吧
像是看了部陈思诚电影，满满商人气息的自我迷恋与自以为是。表达不清，节奏拖沓，每个角色都缺乏特点，彼此擦不出任何火花。估计只有罗素兄弟自己看得津津有味吧。
终于知道郭敬明动作镜头运镜是师承哪里的，果然天下土味是一家啊，失敬失敬。
男主很帅，女主很美，坏人很坏，打斗很飒，故事很俗套，最多只能给三分，不然就昧良心了。
高司令以及安娜·德·阿玛斯、比利·鲍伯·松顿都是我喜欢的演员。这部片挺烂的。也就是有些场景的用光、色彩挺漂亮，以及出了不少外景，才给三星。没想到我去的一趟东欧，掐头掐尾8天，要用那么长时间来怀念。
上半年最佳动作片，剧情及格，动作场面非常精彩，破网飞难得的一部好看电影。
老套的故事+BUG满天飞的逻辑+夸张又火爆的动作戏+降智疯批的反派+无人机炫技摄影（估计是从卖拷贝片场借来的）+凌厉风格的剪辑+“环球旅行”+包括但不限于《谍影重重》《007》《疾速追杀》《速激》等影片的影子＝好莱坞无脑爆米花动作片，拍的很好，下次别拍了。网飞你是有钱任性，但不代表你可以一直拍烂片啊！
虽然说这种全明星特工片剧情一般都是流水线，但这个剧情真有点弱智到不行。人物台词像是机器写出来的，一本正经的在那说些云里雾里的话也不觉尴尬。高司令全程一张脸演完整部电影，安娜一整场吃瘪没有一个高光，美队就更是一个重量级小丑。动作戏的编排也是烂的可以，不知道怎么编晃就完事了，被锤哥的惊天营救爆了10条街。罗素兄弟真的越来越烂了。
挺不错啊。
美式爽片吧……看的过程中还玩了一把数独，一边打着瞌睡。
2+
放20年前我会觉得好看的，10年前都够呛。
是人是鬼都在秀 只有高斯林在挨揍 再加上太多穿梭机镜头了 差点以为是在看迈克尔贝的电影
