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)
从头到尾疯狂输出价值观哪，满满当当，看的好累。这才是个小学生哎。猫熊的形象设计很可爱，但自始至终被强大的说教掩盖，完全无法拿出精力去好好体会这个萌萌的大东西。
皮克斯还是有优良传统，简单道理讲得细微又动人，极易共情。
众所周知，四大天王有五个人；mei爹炒菜那场戏的材质和光线，绝了！
小女孩电影。各种混搭。仪式最后非要回头再加上一系列闪回导致仪式不成功吗？非要把母亲的红熊猫召唤出来吗？非要关键时刻和朋友闹掰又和好吗？迪士尼的东西，越来越套路的，有点愚弄观众。
太好看了！女性导演的独特视角和细腻情感，青春期女孩躁动心理和奇幻变身的绝佳隐喻，中西方元素巧妙融合。母亲在演唱会变身一场戏简直是要绝倒，那一刻如同看到月圆之夜变成的金刚在西城男孩的演唱会上被道教做法。不知道有没有受到玲娜贝尔意外出圈的启发，红色小熊猫类的萌物，是否会成为新的流量密码？
卧病在床好几天半死不活，想找个简单的快乐，看完之后却发现自己真的不适合再看青少向的电影了！！！面对现实吧！！！！
单独看Asian American的故事还是可以的，但是故事本身还是个皮克斯经典故事内核套了个异域文化壳子的电影……没啥新意也没有很感人。。
青春期的伤痛大多来源于被父母教条困住的开始寻找自我的渴望，青春里的每一次嘶吼与变形都是对家庭关系的撕扯，我们往后的人格、观念以及对待子女的态度也正是在这「自我」与「家庭」间的一次次拉扯中成型，悲剧喜剧就这么一代又一代的无止境的延续下去，多年回首，尽是狼狈。不喜欢叛逆期这个词，「叛变」与「忤逆」天然就带有着「君臣」与「驯化」的不平等属性，结尾的大战其实也昭示唯有「血与破坏」才能带来全新的关系变革，男女也是如此。
中国式家长，很可怕
剧不剧情先不说，就说谁能阻挡住一只红猫熊呢？！
套壳中国文化的好莱坞亲情电影，可惜略懂皮毛...
full of f*cking stereotypes
标准的好莱坞工业动画，说明皮克斯近几年在走下坡路。套用中国传统家庭矛盾的外壳，内在仍是老美传统家庭保留节目——“be yourself”。但所谓的“自我认同”只是一个假象，因为其来源是身边同龄人的对宠物般的喜爱，所以伴随主角成长自然产生的爱欲却无疾而终。这种友谊大于亲情的价值观优越感让人感到不适。从设定上来说，送走小熊猫的仪式可以多次反复进行，而保留小熊猫的技能则不需要付出任何代价，所以最后主角的选择显得不痛不痒。不过，片中以流行音乐演唱会作为中国道教仪式的施法吟唱，也算是欧美文化的强势输出了。
Stereotypes 太多了，吴珊卓加一星
第3000部观影打卡。
好莱坞的编剧模版真不错：传统家庭，青春期叛逆，隐瞒，事情败露，冲突，和解，大团圆。换点元素，加点可爱动物缓解一下火药味，套一套模版就又是一部新片了。哦，对了还要突出一下“多元化”美利坚主旋律，这个倒是不难解决。对于皮克斯这种以创意闻名的品牌属实不得劲。我怀疑被迪士尼夺舍了。小熊猫还是挺好rua的。
小熊猫太太太太太太太可爱了，我十分羡慕美美的同学，花钱就能rua到熊猫，这是我多年来的夙愿！而且追星也拍得很还原，是我本人。
小熊猫蛮可爱，福瑞控竟是我自己。用红熊猫形容女孩初潮还蛮简单易懂的。时长很短，观看体验流畅，很套路但不无聊。妈妈的形象非常像刘敏涛。
所以这是个给家长看的教育片吧？希望每个女孩都和自己的小熊猫以及自己的妈妈和解，Peace&Love！
