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)
一部很轻松愉快的治愈电影，能让你完全静下心来看完
无法抹除的灾害伤痛，需要靠神灵更重要靠自己去克服。还是比较安慰人心的动画
看日本的乡村风景，真有种治愈的感觉。没有血缘的关系的祖孙三人共同生活，灾后见真情，每个人家里都有本难念的经，生活也需要温暖，奇幻的剧情加上温暖人心的情节，足以治愈我们。
大家都太苛刻了。现在是2022年吉林九台的疫情最严重的时候，这部片子带给我的小小的感动和力量都刚刚好。
画风很不错 居然是芦田爱菜配音吗！
岩手県大槌町|Lapintrack制作协力|st.BREAK(大平晋也、桥本晋治等)昔话部分作画？
可以加速或者跳过战斗的那两分钟，不然有点打破观影节奏，其他的很好，最近沉迷温馨日常挂的，画风和小森好像啊，真不错。
很温温柔柔的
emmm看个乐呵……悲痛等负面情绪会招来祸患啊……所以要积极乐观的生活😊
我明明什么都没有做，为什么偏偏是我；我们没有选择的权利，只能尽我所能
画风一般般，喜欢讲故事的三段表现，大平晋也得感觉。
用普通的妖怪奇妙物语讲述一般的治愈人心的故事。好在景色很美。
感觉是想喜剧的表现，但是前半段看着压力好大，后半段就有点避重就轻了，过于理想化
松重丰和天海佑希主演 卡司好好豪华啊 但是天海佑希一看就是花钱大手大脚的人啊！看五郎吃东西就是一种治愈啊！
场景色调都很疗愈呀～ 就是穿插的故事开头和结尾为了衬托出迷途之人成为家人，显得有点牵强和无趣。
剧情一般般，喜欢奶奶讲述故事时候的画风。河童好可爱！
女神果然是女神，一改女强人印象，演什么像什么，不愧是宝冢出身，真的笑着流泪🥲钱虽然重要但不是最重要的，这部电影绝非适合搬上大荧幕的，我觉得更适合在家里看。草笛光子年轻时真美啊，他演的母亲角色也都很印象深刻。有个这样的母亲和婆婆知足了。还有五郎叔一站在那里就是五郎，再一进食那就完了，就是五郎，串戏让人阿哈哈哈😄
前半段《小森林》，后半段《给桃子的信》，开篇立意很好但脚本有些乱，仅有宫内优里的配乐和三明治人客串让我眼前一亮。
婆婆真的好优雅啊！
喜欢刚开始那段关于迷途之屋的民间故事，画风和故事都很符合我对日式鬼怪故事的想象。
