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)

最后的彩蛋把片子整体拔高了一星，实在喜欢。
结尾最后片尾曲的歌词也很喜欢~
终于亲自看上了！场景做得真好，无论广州还是顺德都几乎可以乱真……情节很多日漫元素显得尴尬，跟本土文化格格不入，剧情有些过渡不好的地方也是硬生生糊弄过去了，主角也是莫名其妙开挂，但……看到木棉花，听到振奋的鼓点，如何能不被打动呢//感谢木头姐给看了！五星！！必须的五星！！！
2021遗憾之一没有去电影院观看这部良心巨作。很喜欢里面的每一帧画面。
如果结尾是开场，一个机器人和一只狗的故事，应该会很酷吧。
其他这么写实。这人物造型有必要这么分割吗。更生气了。狮子毛写实百分之九十。人物写实百分之一？没一个正常人？得奖开心吗？
Jeff是怎么做到这么传神的……在那张没有五官，只有两个镜头的红色铁皮上，我居然能看到惊喜，自责，悲伤和快乐
粤语版，配乐一起就要哭，看完就想听《狮子山下》
每个千篇一律的日子里，都需要一种执念般的爱来支撑；
莫名想到星爷《功夫》。不是我杯茶，看得有点无聊。为传统文化和动画制作加半颗星。为什么现在这些粤语配音就是没有以前看的tvb演员原声粤语听起来自然呢。
是感兴趣的题材，小格局小情节却很专注。注入了《我是传奇》的框架，《瓦力》的温情，《爱死机》的配方。看待生命有多种方式，如何定义他人他物。如果还有的话，挺想看后传的。★★★☆/7.7

一个老人、一只狗和一个最后懂得生命、与人性意义的机器人的简单公路片。虽然有个末日生存作为背景，但整体平淡舒缓、故事娓娓道来，却从头到尾没觉得枯燥无味。就是很暖，一种在寒夜里递给你一杯热咖啡的暖意，还是被狠狠地治愈和温暖到了！结尾一个很人性化的机器人和一只狗继续开展他们新的旅程，仿佛另一部新电影的开头。
白人不是因为你眼睛小嘲讽你，是因为讨厌你。可以因为它丑打低分，又扯到rh，实属过于敏感了，又敏感又自卑。你们知道外网怎么嘲讽中国人敏感吗？有条件的去看看。你们既然这么在乎外国人的看法，为什么不改改这个整天“rh”的毛病呢？🤣🤣
每次镜头给到jeff一个大特写，他明明脸上没任何表情，但我仿佛能看到最生动的情绪。这角色塑造真厉害。
之前因为练车已经有好几个月没去电影院了，到年底才补了这一部。说实在的，我更愿意相信这是好莱坞的一部讲中国故事的动画或是一部合拍动画，如果从这个角度来看这确实是一部好动画。然而很遗憾不是，所以我就不明白为什么非得拍成这样了。不过好歹因为今年真正的好莱坞动画都不怎么理想，我还是愿意给这个评价，但也仅仅是如此了。
如果能在电影院看这部影片，那就能在电影院完整听一遍美国馅饼，那会多么幸福。一位将死之人培养一个机器人照看自己的小狗，这是一种什么精神？这是无害化处理宠物需要学习的精神。
