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)
这类题材很容易拍得乏味，哪怕有这么多好演员在，也还是枯燥如许。
群像抗日，难得的是给到每个角色的戏份都很足，前期印象最深的是谭凯，后期则是当之无愧的范伟，把老油条的油滑卧底形象演绎的淋漓尽致。铺垫的戏略长，不过拍的每一场都很扎实，一小时后进入刺激高潮，不管是动作还是情绪都燃了起来。有张涵予的抗战戏在我这儿就是质量保证，稳定的发挥就是片子的定海神针，电影院不景气的岁月，还是非常值得一看的国产大片。
远不如《悬崖之上》。
开头越是装腔作势的拿捏，后面越是露怯。整部电影的信息量太有限，拍得又平，哪怕有范伟和张涵予，还有美到惊心的周也，也撑不起来。
和《悬崖之上》很像很像,但是剧情部分差了很多。枣庄因台儿庄战役和铁道游击队而著名。两条线前者是国民党李宗仁部队领导的,后者是我党的支队在鲁南地区搞的游击队,以游击和谍战形式获取日军物资和进攻情报。并且两条线都获胜了,枣庄不愧为鲁南抗战之光！
没有张力的一场平铺直叙 毫不费力就可以猜到下一个镜头下一个镜头 可是没想到结尾高潮怎么这么敷衍了事 即使范伟张涵予也救不了场 刘德华也白搭 藤原脸上被子弹划伤的疤痕为什么一会儿有一会儿又没了呢？
很像公司组织的真人换装CS党课团建活动。好过时啊人家都在玩剧本杀密室逃脱了，你还在玩CS？
这个方案是从华盛顿派出三队人马，他们将分别前往全美国不同的安全地点。每支队伍都要随时做好宣布新的美国“总统”，接过国家指挥权的准备。如果苏联的核武器打掉了一支队伍，下一支队伍就会顶上。“这可不是本子上的抽象计划，而是详尽细致、进行过具体实践的周密计划。”曼说。演习通常需要数天时间，每次队伍离开华盛顿的时候，都要携带一名里根的内阁成员，他将作为总统的“继任者”。核战来临时可能引发极端紧张混乱的局面，他们希望整个方案在这样的条件下也能迅速得到实施。这是一个高于宪法和法律的方案，它创立了一套继任总统的新程序，曼指出，这一程序
3.9 人物刻画的有意思，snuff film的演绎也好，恐怖片一旦节奏慢下来就很显得高级是这样么
一直不停的大雪、轰隆隆的火车声把故事的紧张肃杀的氛围感拉满，剧情环环相扣，观看过程始终能被剧情所吸引。演员演技不用说，抗日硬汉，铁道上的故事一直是传奇。
老范可圈可点 片尾刘德华唱《铁道游击队》 瞬间感动了
插句题外话：这片子里的妆容挺真实的，不像抗太阳神剧里那些浓妆艳抹的妖娆碧池。
节奏慢了点，其它地方还不错，范伟的老王刻画的很棒
唯一有点看头的还是范伟，不显山不露水之间，功力尽显。可惜还是逃不过编剧圣手，一个招手，送了人头。然后最后火车上的戏份也就跟着弱了下去。是“编剧要你三更死”啊。
红色经典翻拍很难，的确有些成功的样板戏，但是都一个套路叠加就成了大乱炖的缝合怪啦，哎，就不要再毁童年啦
纵使铁道游击队的故事家喻户晓，本片的人物也不至于就一带而过吧，基本上就是以老王为核心的情报战，老洪为辅的铁道战。而且故事过于单薄，护士角色基本多余，唯一能共情的“父子”桥段力度也不足。总之是不错的场景造型，糟糕的故事人物。
通篇让人觉得有意思的就是几人关于性与自由的探讨，完全不能接受女主睡觉眼影都不卸。
这么优秀的演员们，这么好的服化道，都没把故事撑起来。还请来刘德华还献上了片尾曲？？？买个好剧本这么难吗？这么耳熟能详家喻户晓的故事都拍的这么苍白！文艺工作者们啊！能不能虚心下来，朴素下来，给劳动人民好好写个故事~！
导编演皆超出预期，近些年难得的主旋律佳作。豆瓣评分太低了，加一星。
