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)
这是一具躯体，年轻或衰老，健壮或瘦弱或肥胖。
非常非常棒，细节决定成败。
勉强3分多一分都不行，所有分数都给大胆追求性爱和快感的立意，并且，这样的男孩有谁不想点！
感谢在考试周让我看到了它。尤其是前半部分，在各种我们熟悉的话题上笑点频出。
“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。
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。
真好啊，直视身体，直视欲望，最后的高潮来得太妙。不被束缚的纯洁关系，比爱情有趣，是幻想也好，是假的也罢，谢谢你，温柔的Leo.
PS：男的真的各方面都很优秀啊 以为是绿色电影，没想到后面有大招。
编剧核心点的主旨都挺好，遗憾是分离度有点高，很难想象不是这个卡司会有多尬，演员弥合了很多硬伤，她简直就是改作文的老师，把立意好结构糟文笔差的作文救到佳作。更细节的点有挺多闪耀的，有学到。
看前面部分还在郁闷这类谈话文艺片怎么会被百度云盘和迅雷秒删，结尾虽说也没啥，但和前面比起来算变异了。
3.5，很好笑，艾玛汤普森很棒。因为想要精简场景完全靠对话推动，故事难免有点刻意，有些地方也难以让人信服。男主也太可口了
这场披着性爱包裹的温柔疗愈，绝对是年度最省钱的好剧本，三个场景配合台词与男主可观的肉体，直接解决了一切！艾玛汤普森真的太敬业了！
以性做为载体，并且全部内景以及依靠大量对白的依托，这都不是作为导演敢于轻易尝试的东西。但是《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》做到了。四段式的结构干净利落，简洁但是精致，虽然冲突来得有一些过于突然，但是通过彰显功力的对白呈现出了自我认同、原生家庭、女性地位等等我们当下几乎所有人都正在遭遇的问题。虽然电影的首要任务永远不是对问题做出解答，但是《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》却再一次以一种浪漫并且不失哲学的方式提供我们：治愈是我们每个人终其一生的命题。
本来其实四星蛮稳的，当男主说性工作合法化的时候我下头下到南极，艺术表达有自由我尊重，同样我也有表达不接受的自由
不会被打拳吧？霍格沃茨只有一个艾玛，姓汤普森。
言语间提到的扮成猫、看电视一些看似古怪或过于寻常的行为背后，是那些孤独，需要存在感，又深切爱着自由的灵魂。
其实一般这种台词电影我是很难看下去的，但是剧本太工巧了，我一直在看要怎么推进两者的关系又不显得无聊或刻意，但事实就是做得都很好，最后上升的爱自己的身体这个点也很好
《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？
剧本太加分了，四次见面，认识自己，面对自己，欣赏自己。
pleasure is not a shame.看名字还以为是一个温情故事，但看完想到的是《女性瘾者》，不在于剧情，而在于启蒙、探索。
