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)
婶美晕了我没有心思看其他的什么台词剧情或者男主，太美了太美了美到令人感动的那种，完完全全超出表象的美，和电影的思考产生了联动。剧本还是挺细腻的，第一次碰面写得特别精确。
不过不失的话剧电影，表面开放其实内核保守得像美国人写的剧本，相比之下几年前Sally field那部Doris倒显得大胆了。
sex喜剧小品，轻松但也深刻，貌似单一的场景，恰如女主牢笼般的婚姻生活。男主真是梦中情鸭，专业！阿姨演技太棒了，换个人演真的会呕。讲的是女性的觉醒，但被人戳破马甲真的好可怕。
美貌和金钱才是硬通货，少了任何一个这个故事也就不存在了。
太棒了，我希望我认识的所有女性朋友们都看这部电影
3.5/5 男主好帅哦 看有评论说来个脸叔gay版 那就再来个大魔王姬版吧hhhhh
看完感动了，对服务生坦白后那一整段都很有劲。orgasm的镜头也太真了吧。
尺度够大，就节奏很工整但同时设定很讨巧人物也很设计感，谈话也是颇为知识分子式的探讨。
《爱在酒店买性时》-我为自己的工作骄傲，我真的很喜欢工作时的那种感觉。-那为什么你要对你的亲人隐瞒呢？
Good luck, take care.
看看人家，再看看咱们这，传出来的都是富婆快乐球，金箍棒，火焰山... ... 素质，素质！
与ta人发生身体和心理上连结 通过性和关系探索自己的身体 多么美好 男人的oo不是彩虹魔法棒插入一次就把你变成完全不一样的人 希望每位女性都能在人生旅程中自由探索性的领域//羡慕英国能拍出这样的电影 羡慕别国电影院和电影节能上映😢
论职业操守和工作能力的重要性！话剧式电影，很有前瞻性，哀而不伤。
后半段不太行，当然一个这么小切口的片子在故事落点上要寻求一点普世价值讨论也不是不能理解。艾玛汤普森棒。
当它就在这里，触手可及的时候。”
靠本事赚钱没什么不好的。
这不是一个therapy嘛，当然主要还是对于Nancy来说，我喜欢两个演员，喜欢长篇的对白，喜欢对内心世界的挖掘，喜欢郑重其事地把性讨论开来，也喜欢冲突的设置和结尾的对视。命题并不复杂，剧情设置也不难猜，但是真诚而可爱，我50几岁的时候还能不能直视自己镜中的身体、面对自己内心的欲望呢？男主角不得不说，挑得太好了（我猜我愿意为此倾家荡产？）如果说他拿出和我同款音箱的时候我还只是笑笑，但他开始按摩肩颈的时候，我已经想给他打一个巨大的笑脸feedback了。另外，oh poor Becky!
“为人父母压力很大，这种压力从未离开过，你就像是拇指在淤青上一样。
虽然情节完全可以预料，但最后Emma在镜头前完全展露自己的身体真的让人感动，这个爱尔兰男生也完全接住了影后的戏（而且太帅了
单一地点+老戏骨的组合很难不让人想到《困在时间里的父亲》，后者在影片技法上还是要更有层次一些，而这部电影的强势就在于每个段落高潮前的那一点铺垫，都恰到好处。
