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)
投屏《爱情神话》时，顶上的字幕是澳门威尼斯人还是请24小时删除？
一夜情，前妻，Jimmy choo，被归化的外国男和混血女儿，咖啡店，ktv，传说中的土耳其和yy电影女星，所谓时髦元素堆砌，不知所云。音乐挺好听的，但没起到作用，转场突兀。
2.人是最可怕的动物，政客又是人里面最可怕的动物！政治家特别需要演技！
做到如此只手遮天的地步，这个结局只会让所有人显得更加渺小。
总体来说，整部电影看下来完全无法理解...
我觉得电影可以改名为:上海中年人的爱情故事，节奏把握的不好，人物也不够丰满，也无法共情，几处笑点设计的就像导演拿着痒痒挠挠你咯吱窝一样
难得能看到这种小布尔乔亚但有没有精英味儿的轻喜剧，其实仅从这一点看，就已经足够讨巧。笑点密集且欢快，在角色的对话中被轻盈地呈现。终于有华语电影借角色之口说出那句一直等待被提起的话：“我为中国的男导演感到羞耻。”在女性导演的视角下，我们才得以有消解狭隘的台词和角色。好喜欢的，灵呀。
要先把问题摆上台面，然后才有通过现代文明途径解决的可能性。
案中案，局中局，套中套。法庭上的反转，原来所谓的正义不过一场作秀！所谓的英雄不过是政治筹码！眼见一定为实吗？大众舆论一定是对的吗？一个个屏幕背后是人是鬼又有谁知，不过是愚人愚己，纵横之术罢了。
还行吧。有些不通顺的地方。整体还可以吧。看完感觉印度要完犊子了。
什么时候内地观众审美这么开放了？居然能容得下这样悬浮文艺视角下的中年爱情故事？女权台词这么多也没被冲？全上海话台词也没被喷？这种欧洲风格作者电影明明只有豆瓣er才爱看！江女士评价此片：男女还是他妈不公平。你看徐峥胖得跟猪一样还有片拍，剧情还是三个美女围着他转。你看吴越，倪虹洁和马伊琍一个比一个瘦，腿都跟筷子一样。一看就是为了能有戏拍没少饿着。
真正难的是起树疙瘩，当你把地面挖开，那张复杂的脉络才显露出冰山一角来。你觉得树根在地下可能只有半米见方大小，但无数条树根可能已经延伸到数米远的地下，跟土壤紧紧得结合在一起。

抛开政治抛开法律，光一个种姓就够喝一壶了，国内的阶层压制至少不是明面上的，种姓于印度，贱民不如狗。
不必崇拜阿三的电影，若是没有层层的迷雾笼罩，这片天空抬头望也有繁星，只是雾霭茵茵，何以见星！
反转的让人头皮发麻，两个律师皆是为了正义
“一个国家的尊严就等同于它给女性的尊严。”
这部与几个月前看的另一部印度电影《杰伊比姆》一样，是能震撼人心的作品。
我看到了一个评论，简单的说就是韩国在描述人性，日本在描述小人物的日常，印度在描述他们种姓制度下的一个奇特环境，而我们呢？？？
导演和编剧尽了最大的努力将一个如此宏大、深刻、复杂的问题结构化地叙述和表达出来。结尾稍显仓促和混乱，但瑕不遮瑜，敢拍能拍这才是最重要的。
