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)

只有3分钟正片和ED是全新的！不过重温一遍故事也还挺有意思的。
封面真好看啊…（流鼻血）
Netflix. 打开网飞首页主推，然后看着看着，快进快进了。
妈的看完这个电影回头想想Killing Eve的直女编剧对LGBTQ人群可能确实很有恶意，所以才安排了个那么恶心的结局。傻白甜喜剧，看个高兴，百合线相当不错。
差点睡着 虽然讲了京都黑猫上车之后的故事（小户川战斗力MAX）但前半段完全就是把剧版剪辑并没有什么新内容……剧版把这个故事讲的好得多的多 不过圣诞飘雪夜 小户川的车飞出断桥的场景还是很美啊——
不好看，没诚意，就男女主颜值扛打，其他都垃圾死了……男主如果尝试演一些LGBT类电影估计比这个火
真的真的很pointless的一部片，姬线颜值不错，但是好像真没什么看的必要。
虽然啥剧情也没有，也不知道主题是啥，但是两个年轻的body相遇，就是火热。
结尾画面补充及拓展，所以，直接拉到后面看就好了。
小百姓美女和大企业富豪的爱情对我们没有参考价值啊
比tv版就多了最后一点点情节，有点失望呀。tv版还是太赞了。
很轻松的电影，姬恋直到不是主线，主角一家，我竟然觉得太白了
不成熟的STAFF和临阵上马的企划，决定了无论作为总集篇还是FANDISC都不够合格
网飞这两年这些西班牙爱情片真的好水啊，上回看的那部《爱情跑调》也是浪费了将近两小时。不过这部好在女主的小粗腿很可爱，喜欢她。
这是什么霸道总裁爱上我的童话，剧情一般般，耐不住颜值高，糖果色调，西班牙青春爱情，不过Tibidabo的取景是真美也很青春？哈哈
很欢乐的一部剧，不止是爱情
哇哦，又古早又狗血。。。还是西班牙厉害这氛围这打光
剧情还可以，主要是来看Arienne的，嘿嘿，CP绝配
很欢乐的一部剧，不止是爱情
