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)
吴彦祖：poor龟孙子，coming to my家，looking for my妞。狼叔：我脑子被记忆溶液泡浮囊了。RF：我是悬疑片男主最爱的谜样二维女子。Thandie Newton：青梅输给了天降。伴随着影院里此起彼伏的笑声，我失去了人生中的两个小时。
电影空有概念，叙事却不严谨。男女主的感情线很不明朗，却硬说两人感情深刻。
世界观挺新颖，但反反复复情情爱爱，不但没有感人，反而让人觉得乏善可陈。缓慢而无聊。
真的，男导演应该没人能拍出这个细腻浪漫的味道。
方方面面都有点诺兰的味道，记忆、时间、迷局、世界观、信息量巨大的台词、难看的动作戏，未来威尼斯和Rebecca一样美丽，结尾Orpheus和Eurydice的故事点睛，第一次觉得这个故事好浪漫，少有的偏执地活在过去的故事吖，是献给所有爱怀旧的人的情书
最不能容忍的是“金刚狼”h居然要女人一次次的拯救他。
科幻的外壳讲了个爱情故事，乱世背景下也有真爱，职业女骗子也有从良的那一天，画面美得好像女主角各种颜色的真丝裙子，不扣小细节的话没感觉哪里不合理，甚至可以完全忽视情节逐帧看画面也是很美好的感受
大家都很帅，可以勉强为了脸把分往上抬一抬。但是剧情就很烂，这个末世科幻高概念设定，一开始整得挺玄乎，结果看着看着，就这？就这？祖哥下线那段剧情之弱智，我只能说，很难再有比这更离谱的剧情杀了……整部片就是用来玩手机打发时间当BGM蛮合适的。话说修哥接这个戏是图点啥？
迷人的复古氛围，伟大的女性带领人类进步！@新宿toho
更像是为了科幻而布置的悬疑片。。悬疑成分乏善可陈。。。构图布景是真的好
开始的时候一切都是假的，后来，一切又都成了真的。惊喜的是好多西部世界的演员，喜欢。
还可以吧。故事太简单了。场景与爱情是特别美的
哎？我刚发现这个导演是诺兰的弟媳妇儿……啊……
就看看男主女主谈恋爱的，剧情根本就毫无意义
狼叔这个蠢呼呼自言自语急吼吼恍然大悟的破案水平太醉了 感情线强行扯了一条颜值即正义 请各位大大放过Orpheus & Eurydice吧!
负分滚粗，毫无逻辑漏洞百出，主角自恋自负玛丽苏气爆表，扭蛋再次证明中英文夹杂死的快
现在的流量爱情片都得这么拍了吗（哆啦A梦惊讶
丽萨乔伊诺兰，克里斯托弗诺兰的弟弟乔纳森诺兰的妻子。“我的时间是非线性的”，导演一直在强调诺兰家族的非线性叙事风格，但只学了个皮毛，把《记忆碎片》和《盗梦空间》的东西塞进了南美狗血剧。
故事乏善可陈，腔调有一点，主要看休杰克曼胡茬子。
这故事说明不要总立flag，过程幸福的故事总是悲伤的结局真是一语成谶，剧情本身还不如世界设定有趣，一别于《未来水世界》的末世水世界还是挺有想法的
