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)
其实我觉得导演已经不适合演这个戏了。你要是说甜茶遇到了这种困惑我还能理解，男主形象显得太废柴了啊。情感点不用做的吗？我知道铺了，但是爱不起来啊喂。达妹为什么接这个戏啊，我不懂。
唔，好舒适柔软的爱情小品，适合周五晚上的vibe 有谁可以抗拒一个幽默、善良、礼貌、坦诚、真挚又外向的22岁男大毕业废柴甜心呢？打完才发现这角色过于完美…无论代入暧昧对象、代入妈妈或弟弟，都很难不爱上Andrew…就像台词里说的，他是世界上最sweet的人，他太懂如何爱别人了，尤其懂怎么爱女性，怎么向女性表达爱，所以让我一度很惊讶男主是自导自演，男性创作者可以做到，这很珍贵。BTW 达妹已经到了演妈妈的年龄吗…
这部电影非常好地填补了一个“不是弱势群体的本科毕业生该怎么长大”的品类空白，倒也不必为此斤斤计较，大家都只是普通而平凡地活着而已。我还小，还幼稚，还有无穷的可能性。
确实如片名一般丝滑；男主是什么天使下凡，对长辈、同辈、晚辈都亲切又体贴，一时控制不住情绪还会回过头道歉，有这样的哥哥换我也舍不得他离开。其实是一则关于年轻人如何成长的故事，巴塞罗那是远方，认清现实才发现搬出家住就已经迈出了一大步；灵魂伴侣可遇不可求，但自己远不是心上人的最优选。年轻人的一无所有，是任性的底气，也是被拒绝的缘由，迷茫过后，人生的路还很长。
好可爱，适合1.5倍速观看。 哥哥和弟弟都是小天使👼🏻。 “我想告诉你我的想法” “我希望你快乐”
你甚至还不知道自己是谁You don't even know who you are yet.把你的心交给某人是…Giving your heart to somebody is…最可怕the scariest,最危险most dangerous,最令人困惑的事most perplexing thing.我们接吻怎么样？也许你会改变主意What if we just kiss? Maybe you'll change your mind.不No.我想嫁给他I want to marry him.我想 我真的想嫁给他I do. I really want to marry him,我知道看起来好像不是那样 因为我的行为 但是我想and I know tha
3.5 自编自导自演的Raiff真的魅力十足。可惜的是他还是太年轻。期待他以后的作品。@Sundance2022
【Sundance22】这种“温情治愈”片很合圣丹斯的口味，在这里首映再合适不过了。但是白男作为美国最easy的模式，拍这样一部找不到工作、“女友”去西班牙之后甩了他这种自怨自艾的半自传片总会让人觉得有点矫情过度，而且我对这种穷小子爱上成熟少妇的剧情真的不太感兴趣。PS，片子里是不是音乐用太多了，连讲个话背景里都要放一首歌，不得不让我质疑一下导演的品味。PSS，这片是真的很白很白，这个就更让整部片子显得矫情了。
3.5，最近喜欢看一些爹味不那么重的电影❤️很有意思的新人导演/演员，应该是不少千禧一代/z世代能共鸣的作品。故事有些cliche，配角的塑造也有些欠缺，但其中很多对话都写的十分有趣。雨中戏远景里的车竟然是三维渲出来的真的很好笑🤓
3.5 I want commitment and to be firmly planted in adult world, but you, you are full of possibilities.
65/100
电影中最喜欢的一个场景是男主对女主的未婚夫说“I’m a dumb kid”，一瞬间就get到导演想表达的东西，就像电影海报说的“爱上一个人很容易，成长很难”
恐惧实物化的极佳呈现，结尾的爱字脱口达到高潮
男女主彼此的真诚坦诚
或许soulmate真的不止一个，人生也不可能了恰恰丝滑，growing up is hard.
没有过分繁杂的因素干扰，全程投入在这段短暂交集的感情萌动的故事中。心理年龄还未成熟的大学毕业生对成熟已育受过情伤的女性的悸动，亦是对于真正长大独立的向往，故而在这段经历中，他收获的是比爱情更可贵的东西，是回忆，是成长。
合理怀疑是因为自导自演所以才把Andrew打造得人见人爱，但是谁又能抵抗Domino这样的妈咪呢🥹🥹 但是苹果出品的电影里男主用的竟然不是iPhone，属实震惊了，特意在给手机锁屏特写镜头那暂停好几秒才确定真的不是iPhone. Domino洗完澡缩在椅子那里，派对结束后回到家在岛台上撑着手肘吃冰棒那里，超想一秒魂穿Andrew，谁懂🥵🥵
Love heals, and love hurts too.

真就取向狙击了！人物、故事、尺度全都正中下怀。这个自编自导自演的库铂将来一定大有所为，保留1星给将来。之前没觉得达妹特别，但这部真的魅力轰炸了，可太smooth了。
