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)
用一个案子把好几个社会问题串联起来，而且还有个特酷的反转，着实牛逼。电影里面的四首曲子编曲水平随便拉一首出来都比国内的主流抖音神曲强不少。
8.5/10.0，电影的毛病还是有的，比如过硬的情节转折，角色的过于脸谱化，过多纷繁复杂的角色，根本没法一一讲好。
小女孩不爱带嘤，义呆梨家族企业在义务，老乌是为国争光彩旗飘飘，乳化什么乳化啊。。。
后半段的法庭辩论反转太精彩了。
连修鞋匠都端着咖啡杯的上海，
轻巧但不轻佻，浓厚又不沉重，玩形式也不让人跳戏，这里藏一点文艺的小梗，那里再玩一点戏中戏，快到矫情的禁区线时，就安排角色先自我解嘲，把开始变重的东西消解掉了，劲儿很巧妙。导演看起来没有负担，不背负，不隆重，反而让观众也一起松弛下来。这一年里，院线电影实在让人提不起兴致，年底这一部小小的，轻轻的东西倒是一点点惊喜。
"一个国家的尊严 就是它给予女性的尊严"
【2022年第58部】无论是从社会题材，还收从揭露人性，这部电影方方面面想要表达的东西都表达到了！
还行吧。有些不通顺的地方。整体还可以吧。看完感觉印度要完犊子了。
印度片最让我不满意的地方就是太长了，导致前部分都是提速播放，整体看下来还是挺震撼的，虽然反转已经不算是新鲜的方式，但中段开始的法庭戏比较吸引我，节奏也飞快的，近期值得推荐的一片印度电影。
（老乌此前为我所知的角色只有林冲）。
像印度菜一样，重口味调料放太多，吃不出到底是什么东西了已经。只贩卖主题和情绪的电影反正我嗨不起来。
外滩18号，两个大相径庭的女宁面面相觑，恭候这个自以为老懂女宁额上海囡宁多时——用轻松幽默、四两拨千斤的调性论述两性关系的争议主题，颇有看点。缺点是插曲多，有滴乌苏。
一开始是要旗帜鲜明地反对动乱,然后变成一个地方的警察署长怎么就接了中央的大案子,只好当场吟了一首诗...接着就是fake news不能make India great again,要加强网络舆论管理,最好扫黑廉政建设,不让互联网成为法外之地...律政戏还蛮出彩的..."仿佛在看罗翔审张三"...
爱情在哪？神话在哪？也就只有索菲亚罗兰扣题了（这是诽谤）。。。
结局一段的处理方式没看懂啊。不塑造律师，也并没有把副督察弄得更丰满
3、有点儿12公民的意思，在任何没有确凿的证据之前不可以妄下定论
印度的zz斗争片总觉得不太现实。也没看下去
可以和《杰伊比姆》较量一番，这个片小漏洞挺多，但题材可，故事线丰富，反转可。印度电影真的越来越好了呢。而且我真的一点都不讨厌电影里有大量印度歌曲和舞蹈（虽然本片没有舞蹈），非常好听和合适啊！
暗地使操纵自如 却不敢浮出水面 暗地令舆论走向 却不敢保留痕迹 暗地使秘密消失殆尽 却不敢长存一切尸体 暗地使革命流血 却不敢让血色永远鲜红 暗地使平民受苦 却不敢让旁观者永远记得 挑选那些柔软的来挫败那些强悍的 永远记得一到不再自欺欺人的时候 也就是看见希望萌芽的时候
