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)
让雪山中的战役变弱了很多
阿巴已死，剑心安在。二十年白驹过隙，寻猫王不遇，江湖有缘再见。
画面出色打戏精彩，血浆飞溅太过瘾！佐藤健的脸衬得村花更大了哈哈哈
始终最爱的一篇，高还原度，喜欢。我觉得是一语双关，一方面是给自己的未婚夫，对不起，没法替你复仇，只能留下一道刀疤，一方面是给自己真正的丈夫剑心，对不起，为了复仇，必须在你脸上再留下一道刀疤。
商业片年度最佳！无论你是喜剧控，惊悚控，超英控，女权控，哥特控，甜宠控，暴力控，怪兽控，SM控，魔幻控，军事控，政治正确控，原生家庭控，昆汀控，星战控，X战警控，漫威控，死侍控都会狂爱这部片！
以前不明白为啥就很喜欢这个男人，突然发现可能是因为这个男人带刀。我也是。
受限于漫威影业的严苛要求，古恩在两部《银河护卫队》中都没能自由发挥他强烈的B级趣味。所幸，在来到以对待导演宽松而著称（当然，偶尔也会招来骂名）的华纳影业后，古恩终于得以大展身手。
不了解日本那段历史，上一部浪客剑心看完也忘记了，只记得动作场面很酷很动漫，如今这部依然，话说剑术对决之美和中国武术有很大不同，倒和想象中的武侠小说武功有几分吻合。不过或许拔刀斋太清秀了，给人感觉大和民族怎么那么矛盾，放下武器时好像太过文明和孱弱，和拔剑后的凶狠联系不上。8/10分
认识砂糖十年而他依然坚挺！打戏太棒脸也没变，追忆篇场景超美！大雪倾覆遍地白皑，火与雪红与白对比，巴与剑心邂逅，感情收尾干净利落，流露点到为止。爱上仇人无计可施，只好保护他而死。少年初登江湖，劲道凌厉经验不足。她在他脸颊留下剑痕，风雨漂泊中的幸福一点也够。幕后打戏训练堪比原片，而国内依然热衷瘦甜发嗲小奶狗。
苍凉的时代感，凄徨的宿命感，时代大幕拉开，但心门永远地闭上了
人们往往会用“腥风血雨”来形容一场惨剧，你真的……会引起腥风血雨呢。
唯一的缺点应该是女主...头大得像戴了假发...
不是说村花难看，但她的大脸和我想象中的雪代巴真的差好多。。。文戏节奏真是慢慢慢，但表达的东西还是挺细腻的，武戏剑心对冲田总司那段感觉还行，其他就比较无聊了。
8分是粉丝吧 好不容易第四部武戏有些看头了 到这部走心起来，文戏拖沓不说武戏少还退步了。
上影节天山场。雪代缘的小演员是照着新田真剑佑的模样选的吗，未免也太像了）
难得看日本动作片。漫画风格还是挺明显。画面和打斗设计，都有点特色。中间一度让我联想到长安十二时辰。
派大星vs自杀小队
覆没的第一小队、flag的营救任务、国王对哈莉的邀约、营救哈莉……近乎大半的戏份都是不必要的，这些反英雄、反套路、无厘头式的情节折射的就是这一切都是无意义的，就是用来玩的，你只管看爽就罢。
做了不少细节改动，让村花的雪代巴竟……成立了……配乐很克制，倒也索性完全是另一种味道。除了总司的发型一切都极好，说是漫改天花板都唐突了，不应该放在「漫改」这个大类里（。
波点人气质太诗人，酷。鲨鱼王读的书是威廉·詹姆斯《宗教经验种种：一项人性研究》，漫画里他读的书是《鲁米诗集》。
