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)
叙事是片段式的，对于不了解传记片主人公的观众会觉得混乱。用音乐串起情绪效果很好。加菲的表演其实不够深入，演唱部分倒是卖力。
tick tick tick boom
大emo 戏里戏外都太感人好哭了，天妒英才，薪火相传，厚积薄发，时时刻刻。
tick tick boom！被击中了，热泪盈眶。
天才人生中永远只有过路人，从情感角度的解读倒是有几分《后翼弃兵》的后劲了。
后疫情时代宽街的一种新尝试！林巨巨YYDS！加菲意外的惊喜！
其实中后段有点撑不起来，最终要将的不是很清晰，你到底要讲的是个人还是时代，没有掰扯好来，一直摇摆不定，最后的收尾，也比较一般，好就好在形式上让人眼前一亮，加菲这次也撑得起来。
这是在动画里有的啊 但是众柱集体出现还是很燃
创作者总是濒临绝望 像一台永动机的状态让人心疼
对应TV剧22～26集，炭治郎进入鬼杀队总部。
非常典型的美国电影，前半部分代入感不强，后半部分渐入佳境。乔恩的努力、挣扎、死亡、成功，都归于一个词，无常。最近读关于阿德勒的心理学，很有感触，你的课题只是把每一天过好，每一天的舞蹈跳好，照佛学讲的“无常”二字，眷恋过去，远眺未来，都是愚蠢。
同意热评说的，作为音乐电影没有出彩的音乐真的是很致命的问题/
这是一部让人心潮澎湃的电影！是一封写给音乐剧的情书！故事以闪回、以现实与音乐剧巧妙结合的方式推进，聚焦百老汇传奇剧作家乔拉森·拉尔森30岁前后的创作焦虑与人生困境，展现了他实现音乐梦想的无比执着和赤诚。Tick，Tick，Boom! 贯穿全片滴答作响的时针，营造了时光流逝男主年届三十一事无成的焦虑和压力，烘托了气氛。
LMM的音乐和灵感真的是赶上这个时代了，幸事啊，算是writer里面混的头一份了
期待火之呼吸有更精彩的发挥
可能是因为拍的是音乐剧编剧的传记，能看得出来在刻意保留音乐剧的舞台，限制在了狭窄的空间当中，并且其中一直穿插着演讲式的叙事，也可以体会到创作团队对音乐剧的忠诚。故事其实不太到位，但是频繁出现的音乐又非常出色地弥补了这个缺陷。三十岁一过，代表着人生又进入到下一个阶段，年轻的梦想与追求，要不会顺利地风平浪静或天花乱坠，要不会被现实碾得稀碎。为了自己的事业，我们投入了太多的时间，与朋友和恋人之间的距离逐渐增大，前进的路也在不知不觉中偏离了方向。但给予希望的往往不是自我消化，而是来源于身边所爱之人。时间不够又如何，死于三十五岁又如何，至少没有因为现实而变得媚俗。在离去的那一刻，人生停滞了，但留下的作品，正在这个世界不停地绽放。
像是和哎嘛石头的某种隔空共舞，奈何歌曲实在是不怎么抓我。
？？？搞不懂为什么要再来一遍一样的东西，好想打1星啊。
无聊，也就开头结尾能看一下。其实就是吸血鬼。
