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)
努力的活下去，珍惜身边所爱之人
前期每次行凶都给了挥舞凶器的前摇一个old-fashioned的亮相特写，爆血浆一点也不含糊，尽管大概猜到了剧情，但录像带画面出来的时候依旧有些瘆得慌，到警局看守所时视觉效果堪比《阴风阵阵》，最后几场打斗场面诡异中透着点搞笑……
虽然和想象中的恐怖期待不同，也是别样的恐怖体验，就如同温子仁自己说的，不想让别人以为自己只会拍鬼屋驱魔，想尝试别的恐怖题材，本片即是温导的突破之作。
虽然是传统的日式风格，但还是感动到了我了，男女主两人在这部剧里演技都有进步，期待下次能合作个结局好的🌝
给小坂流加，你比常人稍短的生命里的杰作为未来时空不曾相逢的人带来泪水。感谢制作组。
很喜欢小松菜奈和坂口健太郎，但是这部电影真的很平，很一般
这个可太猎奇了，后脑勺上长畸胎，手脚逆行也能杀人如切瓜，这事真是太猎奇了……一开始我觉得这是灵异版的超感猎杀？一进入通感状态就没办法动是“鬼压床”？是真没想到这通感通的这么“扎实”，尽管又是爱能战胜一切的标准结尾，但就冲着这个猎奇的程度，我就得给四星，温老师真是从不让我失望啊～
电影3⭐，片尾曲➕1⭐，后期亲情拍得比爱情更动人
是春天街头的樱花
茉莉和妈妈那场戏我都没崩，删视频昏迷平行世界那段真的扛不住老泪纵横……这类题材日本是拍很多了，这部你还是可以感受到原著生命的张力，遗憾无力感多过矫情恋爱脑，这才更像真实的凡人。要好好生活，好好爱～
配乐似乎借用了Pixies的Where Is My Mind，剧本其实非常有趣，铅黄、鬼宅、动作片、身体恐怖（柯南伯格、帕尔玛之外，还想到格德勒《恶神》），繁复的外壳包裹简单故事，情节在各种恐怖类型中无缝切换，但最终效果实在令人不敢恭维。帕尔玛式pulp故事确实很能检验一个导演，同样爱用镜头炫技，帕尔玛、阿基多都是为了悬念服务，而到了温子仁这里，精致华丽的俯拍、倾斜、越肩长镜就成了拖沓累赘的漫长趣味展示，放在动作片里还算恰当，而在恐怖片里，就既不中看也不中用。恐怖形象方面，温子仁（和他的朋友们）似乎已经再也离不开“扭曲人体”这一个创意了。
给朋友喜欢的小松菜奈以及已经过世的作者本人多一颗星。但是整体真的不管从叙述上还是镜头语言上表现力都不是特别好。
三星半，nana的演技终于有所提升。节奏一般，冲着感情线来的可惜拍的也很普通，哎，果然生离死别的爱情最能打动人。
两位真的没有什么cp感………果然只有苏打和小松菜奈最相配
8/10 不识庐山真面目，只缘身在此身中。

可能演技和剧情有点差强人意，容易出戏，但是nana独白那一段真的很骗眼泪，台词很真实了
低沉的情感贯穿整部电影，剩下10年的生命，找到属于自己的美好
《脑后寄生怪胎亲哥哥之超能力复仇篇…》才是本片真名吧？主角屠戮整个警局后如同没事人一般，拥抱妹妹，回归家庭的模样，泪目了！这就是famliy的力量？建议复仇者联盟考虑收编下主角，就叫“雌雄双面侠”[旺柴]
快看完的时候突然感觉很空洞没什么内容。但卡司十分了得。
