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)
刚看完今年Super Bowl公羊夺冠，顺便看下Kurt Warner这个草根逆袭的励志电影。之前正好看过早安美国采访本人和主演，知道这部电影75%谈的是爱情亲情家庭和生活的挣扎，25%是球场上的比赛故事，想看橄榄球的直接去找比赛集锦就好了，这部电影更多是讲述这样一个从Supermarket走到Super Bowl的传奇四分卫故事。
除了老头和第一部没有任何关系，上一秒还母慈女孝下一秒就要摘心手术，不过以毒贩来说倒也正常，狗狗叛变的也太快了，还留了个进可攻退可守的彩蛋。
Kurt Warner虽然是落选秀，但也是不到30就进了NFL，你找了个40的人来演。我特么看的时候以为Warner 30好几进的NFL然后还打了11年，这就不仅是励志故事，这简直是医学奇迹了。。。选角不能用点儿心么？？
已经完全没了第一部那种新颖的感觉，主旨偏离主题，就是无脑R级片了
把第一部的优势全部抛弃另起炉灶，好在视听上还是有想法的
3.5星。這一集略遜於第一集,但還是不錯看,老兵其實心地很善良的,可惜最後死了,老兵依舊很勇猛,幹掉所有壞人
更喜欢第一支职业球队的教练说：命运，只属于弱者--强者是主导命运的。
前半段以盲为点的悬疑
简直是爽文小说一样的剧情，但是导演安排的很好，感情戏和励志部分都恰到好处，远超预期的一部电影。
变烂的趋势，专注于老头的方向是对的，但是剧情与形式完全不对。
20220614 冲着体育类励志故事来的，但是影片前半节奏有点慢，开始1小时都在铺垫，而且比较多围绕在情感方面，后半开始热血逆袭才开始。但也正是因为前半情感的铺垫，也更加展现了他草根逆袭背后强大的支持动力。
美国座头市啊，虽然有点夸大其词了，但总体还算可以吧。
小女孩躲避的段落拍的很精彩，故事方面薄弱，场景和动作场面都不够令人兴奋。
编剧还是厉害的，能把完全不合情理的剧情最后自圆其说。
精华都在预告片里。
小制作影片，虽然是作为系列第二部，可与第一部基本没有什么相关联系。
前半部剧情有些不连贯。不过后半段确实很感人…作为一个真的热爱某种运动的人我是能感同身受的。
盲老汉的听声辨位大战米国罪犯，扣眼残酷！犯罪集团中还有人性尚存的人，以及一只凶残叛徒狗！八岁小女孩拿刀血砍，不慌不乱太神奇了，经历如此种种不知长大后又该如何？编剧和导演，就尽扯蛋吧！可能还有第三部，更神奇了！
节奏这么这么温吞吞，故事走向又这么迷惑，实在有点浪费时间。
盲老头战斗力依旧开挂，单枪三杀人头就nm离谱，小女孩身世解开但亲生的也不是什么好鸟，跟班手下竟然还有圣母人设。。。
