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)
剧情虽然老套，不过也属于符合大众口味的标准结局了，如果不是因为女主，我肯定不会看……
6.9/10 本片在保持与前作关联性的同时, 又并未基于此谱写过于复杂的剧情, 可谓一大长处。 同时大量的动作戏份, 以及美丽的异国风光, 皆呈现了一场视觉盛宴。 且无论是汉斯的配乐, 还是制作组打破往常零零七特工形象的勇敢尝试, 亦或是服饰道具的搭配使用, 皆让本片的完成度更为优秀。 可惜, 本片如此依旧不能称为佳片。 故事后半段以感情为重心后如脱缰的野马, 彻底失控且令质量一落千丈。 存在感极弱且不具威慑力的反派, 更是令对决在尾声处显得糟糕透顶。 此外克雷格谢幕的方式极为感动, 但在质量彻底崩塌的情形下令感动少了几分, 也可谓遗憾。 总而言之, 作为一任特工的道别仪式, 本片并不惊艳却也并不差劲; 作为一部商业作品, 其至少保障了足够的娱乐性, 体感上不会太过漫长。
这女主怎么总是一副没睡醒的样子，看着真让人提不起精神……这反派又是被严重降智，行为简直莫名其妙匪夷所思🤢🤢坏人关键时刻秒变话痨这个万年老梗，怎么2021年了还在用，真是无语😓最后20分钟真是如坐针毡如鲠在喉
小三和正妻一起手撕渣男的片段最大快人心，别的部分真心俗套。
7.5分 刚看开头我以为又是大明星和平民恋爱的烂俗爱情故事片 还真不是 我蛮喜欢这种双向救赎的 结局安排很爽
对不起 丹尼尔克雷格的007我每一部看的都很困。。。。。
三星半。结局确实没想到，但还蛮不错，很温馨的一部片子
BTW：那段老母亲丧礼的REAL TALK很值得反复去看，悼词很美。
真心有时候未必无价
3.5 无暇赴死的人，最终死在这一天。丹尼尔•克雷格版詹姆斯•邦德一登场便是个“痴情人”：男人可以花天酒地，原因是我爱过一个人，且忘不了她。本片邦德甚至有些女性化，从片头曲就能窥视一二：爱上一个谎话连篇的人，尽管那人是为了保护他，还为他生了个女儿。玛德琳为爱离开，邦德最终为爱赴死，这是中年男人的无奈与无畏。“我是邦德，詹姆斯•邦德”在片中出现两次：一次是安保核对身份（对特工身份的审视与归还），一次是玛德琳给女儿讲述父亲的传奇（爱的见证）。“退休”后归来，再死去，完美谢幕，一些细节让人想起《天幕危机》。由于影片聚焦邦德的心理挣扎，而不是他的行为，所以在反派设定上显得象征化，对比性交强，动机逻辑不连贯，致使决战戏冗余。基调挺文艺，可惜人物塑造差了些。
每个演员都很配这部戏的感觉，剧情也能够自圆其说，很温情的轻喜剧。
合情合理的结局，不然下一部就要拍007开家长会了。
类似诺丁山的爱情片，插科打诨的过去了，里面墨西哥老妈很搞笑，一本正经的开车，女明星其实我觉得不是很漂亮，最后给了一个自行车铺女老板作为泊车小哥的结局出口，合情合理，还不错
虽然也是个爆米花电影 但情节设计的还蛮有趣
虽然很好莱坞吧，但真的就还。。。挺好看。温暖的喜剧小品，特别抚慰当下被疫情搞得乌七八糟的❤️。
家长里短 鸡毛蒜皮
首次看《007》就是这一代的开篇之作《皇家赌场》，伴随我童年到成人这一漫长的回归之旅实在是过于感慨。
When she loved, she loved fully. when she hugged, she squeezed the life out of you. When she laughed, the ground shook.
俗套的剧情但是靠着不错的节奏，以及演员的表现，整体观感很棒
/2022.6.23/男主还挺剧抛脸的，故事有点无味，看的一乐呵。
