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)
非常棒，我会一直提醒自己这是千玺演的，但一直又忘记这是千玺，这就是景浩，面对困境的挣扎无奈但又要充满希望。我的千玺值得，我会一直爱的。
虽然不能理解没钱交房租为什么能有钱直接开个厂，但不妨碍我哭成狗…
如果是普通片算好了，但是白瞎了这么多好演员。
补标，大过年带着《药神》的期待看的，后悔没带家人去看《杀手》。整体看下来感觉视角过分聚焦在男主身上，其他配角多少有点工具人的意思，不像《药神》的群戏来得精彩与生动。
四字弟弟演技真好啊，从《少年的你》延续而来的“人狠话不多”性格真适合他，成了他的影剧粉，多打1🌟给他。电影节奏舒适，点面具到，配角也都很可爱，全片洋溢着年轻和奋斗的深圳气质。偶有尴尬情节比如轮椅老爷子打群架、最后电梯里360度欢呼等稍显刻意。最大败笔是最后弄得好像真人真事改编似的非要人人强安个结局特别扯，就留在合影一幕不好吗？
打四星是因为这景浩跟我爸年轻时的经历挺像 这电影很真实
“这跟我是修手机的有什么关系”“这跟我年龄有什么关系”，这两次大声回应，在电影院里的我有被激励到。
Phil=以男子气概自居却否认自我身份的男同，George=普通的“正常”男人，Peter=看似阴柔却杀伐果断极其冷静沉着的男同。Phil这种极度自我压抑的男同性恋，以阉割情感和懦弱作为屏障，像极了某些恃宠而骄的toxic masculinity 和fragile macsulinity。而它们又如此弱不禁风，在真正的男子气概（犬之力）前一溃千里。这也隐喻时代对于男子气概定义的改变和不变，当今社会和20年代的美国西部并无二致，人们依然对男子气概奉若神明。简·坎皮恩试图警示这草木皆兵的危险观念，果然是学人类学的，洞悉人心的狂妄和阴暗。
爱和勇气果然是很可贵的品质。这部电影再一次印证这句话。对亲人的爱、对朋友的爱，敢于尝试的勇气、对抗生活的勇气。拥有这些品质的人，会得到上天眷顾的。
A-. 初看觉得缓慢，回想时才发觉，这分明是一场极具仪式感的凌迟处死。在或暴戾或淡漠的假面下，人物若即若离的状态似乎成为某种法则，因为一旦伤口暴露，就已必死无疑。猜测成为接近内心的唯一路径，但也正因此，情感拥有了悬疑般的张力，而本片最powerful的，也正是那些“草木皆兵”的瞬间：丛草的起伏，马背的抽搐，梳子的响声，暧昧的神色。声画调度无比精致，每一帧在大银幕都美不胜收。好一把磨得锃亮，杀人不见血的刀。2021.9.2 Venezia
心疼我们千玺弟弟，每次都演那么让人心疼的角色，但演技一点都不拉胯，每个人都在千难万难的生活着，感谢你的拼搏努力，让自己过上更好的生活
年度最强导演调度，简阿姨就像在用十字绣绣人皮，慢工细活中不带丝毫赘笔。能看出山形如犬的男孩和男人其实都是同一类人；也正因为是同类，才会为守护所爱之人而冷血无情。真正印证了那句话：最高级的猎人往往是以猎物的形式出现的。快给卷福一个奥斯卡，快~
打架那场又好哭又好笑的，其他就稍微平淡一点了。
催泪片滚出春节档！挺工整，四字演得也挺好，但总感觉有点薄弱
努力是真的会有好结果
合格的类型片叙事节奏，至于现实，深圳早已不是奇迹之城，片中俯瞰下的白石洲也早已在“俯瞰下”荡然无存。
奋斗的过程太真实了，很多催泪环节，景厂长不容易啊，结尾就权当一笑吧，
有些人在看创业，有些人在看拼搏。我在看不离不弃，相互依偎
四字弟弟真的转型成功了！！！🎉 终于get到弟弟的帅点了！！
是挺奇迹的，甚至梦幻，这千万分之一的概率，不过影视作品嘛……节奏细节镜头都特别好，就最后吧还是刻意交了个作业，四字弟弟的台词进步很多
