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)
温情公路片，人狗之间的相互救赎，很温暖！人生总要有所寄托！
真的好看，好久没看过这么好看的电影了，希望有越来越多的好电影看，真的非常棒啊，我很喜欢，演员演技也很棒
这部电影是怎么做到把狗狗片子和老兵问题拍得这么枯燥乏味的……
这部片最好看的看点是查宁只穿黑色内裤在地上爬的部分😂
lu'lu终究是幸运的，最后被领养了，离开了残酷的工作和任务，被爱与温情包围后，也会逐渐淡化那些经历战争后的创伤吧。虽然片尾说是“in memory of lulu”，但感觉对于退役军人的救赎和治愈更多一些。
无功无过。’隔离7+7 4.28-5.04’
算是近期不错的喜剧，情节设置合理，桥段也没有太俗套。钱老板的下颚线也恢复了，值得推荐！
忠犬，大家都忠于自己的人生吧，尽可能在短暂的时间里，救赎多少是多少，挽回多少是多少，哪怕有很多遗憾，至少让阳光撒满。

出生入死的狗，精神受损之后要被安乐死，人类真是太残忍了，好歹也是为国服务过的，养一下也用不了多少钱吧，美国不是号称最爱狗的国家吗，怎会有这样的规定。
特意关注了cast 狗是三只狗演的，破案了，这就是电影里看着眼神差别那么大的原因。我真受不了狗一脸纯真的星星眼神。
咱就是说，看个狗片都能给我糊一脸ptsd老兵，是嫌我这个前军嫂的眼泪没流尽吗
哪里是喜剧，明明是悲剧。需要你时，你是英雄，是功勋犬；不需要时，是被安乐死，是桥底的流浪汉
不错， 杰克·吉伦哈尔没有令人失望，和《恐怖直播》有得一拼
狗狗真的是人类生命中最永恒美好的主题
狗的镜头不多，比想象中要好些！人和狗同样的经历，同样的救赎之路，虽然是公路片的同样套路，人狗同路同命运也就带来不一样的化学反应！重生才是最后的目的，过去的让它过去！
3.5。剧情简单，但是人与狗之间的永恒感情不会停下感动的步伐
蛮牛仔风格的人狗交往过程，跟日本的人狗交往电影不一样。

即使故事缺乏惊喜，也有一种极为平庸的发展，但会很感激一旦坐定就可从中享受到的陪伴- -是温暖的，也是可爱的。
