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)
#2022.12#虽然依旧忍受不了印度电影的歌舞，不过好在这次没有舞了…选材完胜，这才是电影该有的样子，不知道在生活的土壤是否还能看到，还是越来越红呢？影片还是有一些反转，看的直呼过瘾，为最低下的人民感到悲哀同时又为他们在影片中的所作所为，不被黑恶侵蚀而骄傲
可怕的种姓制度、贫富极端化的阶级固化，警察酷刑致死，印度就是女性的地狱
故事还行，拍得非常非常主旋律。
原本看着评分很高，但也做好了失望的准备，却是一个大大大惊喜！熟悉的味道回来了！美伢和正南真的笑死了，马拉松时发问青春的那一段真的被打动到了。青春有阳光也有阴暗，当月潮可以对狰狞的自己说我超爱自己的时候，眼泪就开始哗哗哗停不住了，只有当世界不只有一种评判维度，才是幸福的根源。还是爱蜡笔小新。
好看！！后半期超级好看！！结尾也很棒！
小新：“是风间啊!”
控诉还是很有力的，审犯人的暴力也是全篇幅展现血腥
受害者宁死不屈的硬气 妻子百折不挠的毅力
4+ 很揪心也很燃，节奏有点慢。生命面前人人平等，种姓制度太可怕。
很不错！是青春啊！番长好帅( ⁼̴̀ .̫ ⁼̴́ )✧
小伙伴之前的情义和人生观价值观之前的碰撞，小新这次面对的问题有点现实和深刻啊，总体论得还可以，侦探故事也算有头有尾，小新父母的教育观很正，点赞～
这个人权律师居然没有人敢杀他。。。 或者说做过没成功吧。
不过不妨碍接着往下看律师追寻真相和伸张正义的过程
这几年之中相当不错的蜡笔小新剧场版！而且是原创的
印度片都有个通病，铺垫长，节奏慢，没有对白就加背景音乐，不过影片后面渐入佳境，演员的表演很淳朴，也很真诚，很能打动人，乡下这么落后破烂的地方，镜头却拍的非常美，很难得。
电影开头的片段就让人感受到扑面而来黑暗，但我觉得当事人以及低种姓人经历的是深陷泥潭，淤泥从“四面八方”袭来淹没五官而造成的黑暗，而电影拍出来的是：太阳每天东升西落，矗立前方的庞然大物却遮天蔽日，在某一天它偶然弯个腰低个头或被人撬动后，阳光将会驱散其后终年的阴暗。
《杰伊·比姆》让我想到了美国的《刺杀肯尼迪》和韩国的《辩护人》。这三部电影都和法律相关，感染力极强，影响力极大。我多么希望我们也能拍出、并且能上映这样的电影。
标8电影，同样是煽情，远不如大人帝国反击战来得深刻自然。
【3.0】和大多数取材自真实事件的印度商业片一样过度依赖情绪煽动力，冲突几乎都是由戏剧化的镜头直给，法庭戏也全是对白推进。整体上看，剧本和拍摄都谈不上优质。钱德鲁是位令人肃然起敬的伟大的人权律师，他和他的官司值得更得章法的传记片呈现，及格分是给这个人物的。
你在做什么啊？
