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)
女性在生育中到底会经历什么？/不怎么惊悚悬疑/结尾女主庆幸没有流产 也算是和自己和解了吧
挺惊悚的，拍得不错，但是喜欢不上来，看得累。
N:3.5
任何事情，就是不能有太多太大压力。容易变精神病
3.5，前面有点混乱，到底是要走恐怖还是惊悚让人困惑，中间渐入佳境。我觉得主题真的很好而且感觉讨论的影视作品也蛮少的，职业女性与母亲身份的困局，竞争型的母女关系，妈妈对女儿恨大于爱，憎恶自己的孩子真的可以说出口吗？孩子对母亲的梦魇，看到一半就觉得编剧和导演肯定都是女性，结尾字幕果然，不过没想到编剧导演竟是同一人。千禹熙的演技非常棒，不过几段主播的台词其实有点尬，李慧英的演技真是宝藏。
确实是能猜到反转的电影，暗示得太明显了，有一种导演生怕你看不懂的感觉。如果没接触过这种题材可能觉得新鲜，但稍微多看几部电影就能猜出来了。感觉拍的时候还可以再收着点。不过主题很有意思，而且是女导演拍的，多加一星，还是推荐看看。
悬疑、惊悚、犯罪、精分......千禹熙演技炸裂。【BDYS】
就连吃早餐这种平凡的小事也已经足以感动了。
挺好的 人格分裂确实是悬疑片的利剑 但是一想到这种就会联想到 十二怒汉 致命id 闪灵等类似电影 还是不错的这个
电影探讨了很多话题 精神分裂症 结伴自杀 职场焦虑 母女关系 女性生育等内容，阴郁风格的电影。。。。
2.5 是可以接受的用於放鬆大腦的偶像劇（雖然我覺得可以短半個小時）除了李沐 全員超齡 cast都不太好的感覺 周興哲演18歲誰信啊？！15年後變成了林柏宏？這是科幻片嗎？？？對不起周興哲雖然聲音還蠻好聽 但真的太醜了 好好唱歌不好嗎 不過劇情還好 不愧是網紅文 // 片子在香港票房算相對還不錯 於是和朋友討論為什麼明明有市場但香港沒有人拍這些 而且隨便想了幾個想看的演員 好像都太老了（笑）
看不懂周兴哲正如我不懂菠萝面包。但没人告诉我有李霈瑜啊超可爱
并不新鲜的设定和悬疑，却因为展现探讨了生育焦虑、母职惩罚、女性职场焦虑等话题而让人，尤其是女性观众有了别样感受。生育对女性来说真是无比沉重的幸福啊。。。
以为是主播和心理医生斗志斗勇的悬疑剧，最后反转，结果是人性救赎的故事？画风从破案变成伦理，高开低走。
挺惊悚的，拍得不错，但是喜欢不上来，看得累。
很不喜欢用精神分裂说事的恐怖片，因为它把一切不合逻辑的事情变得合理，没劲😒
剧情有些乏善可陈，一眼就能忘到头。全片就靠千禹熙一人撑起，演技惊人
这类 我称之为背景音电影，随便看两眼就能知道讲了什么情节。
整部电影的恐怖氛围挺到位的。母亲那的反转确实没猜到。本以为是医生催眠行凶，再以为母亲极端杀害女主播，原来一切都是女主本人。
台偶是永远的青春啊！没有人演青春校园剧能演得比台偶更自然😭
