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)
反转的很温柔，通篇场面异常温和，使人昏昏欲睡😪
还行啊。变成了特工爱情故事了。为了爱人，可以出卖国家利益，为了国家可以出卖线人。结果没死的线人是真正的恐怖分子，返回头胁迫你出卖在飞机上的间谍。
三星半 名字有点misleading 实则是披着谍战外衣的爱情片
男女主真的很搭配，虽然取材很贴近生活，但总感觉有点勉强，可能是电影表现上的问题
简单而小场景的惊悚片。开始就表明有有内鬼得查，最后的内鬼反转还不错，只不过整场几乎都靠这两个人的对话，与回忆联动，推进剧情发展，确实没啥跌宕起伏的。出彩的居然是点到为止的床上戏。
深爱的两个人，因为爱和保护，走上了两条不同的道路。
话痨电影，节奏超级慢。为啥现在想看一部对胃口的电影这么难！
反转还不错，6.5是值得的吧，4星鼓励一下。
稍微沉闷了些，但是反转的很虐心，爱情大于生命
前面得忍住，有点碎，但要认真看，到后面就好看了💁🏼♀️
三星半，还不错的层层抽丝剥茧揭秘底，第一层当年破不了这过了8年了更难啊这破事无解死局，第二层不对啊前副局有问题嘛怎么鬼鬼祟祟的，第三层女主也不大对劲啊拿到副局信息怎么不上报，第四层女主反击其实当年就发现男主有问题是内鬼这次也是提前布局专门来抓鬼的，第五层男主当年确实卖情报了但是情非得已为了救女主没有别的选择，第六层男主喝了毒酒毒发身亡最后也没有杀女主，女主则全身而退回家抱孩子
2022018《以年为单位的恋爱》
为什么取这种名字害我浪费近俩小时？
基本上就靠两人的回忆撑起了一本电影，情节缓慢，氛围很闷，需要极大的耐心。最后男主也算是为了旧情人而救赎，也许他老早知道自己的结局，也是身不由自己。电影有床戏，有露点。
都尽力了，没啥意思。唯一的价值是坦迪·牛顿上身裸。这就无法评分了。但问题是裸的不值钱了，这片子不咋地！ 幻想一下，如果她这一裸放在当年《碟中谍2》里与汤姆·克鲁斯。那真是哇塞了……
氛围戏。各种气氛营造的很好，就是最关键信息的处理似乎显得很潦草，过度的不自然，突兀....
我给四星，演员演技非常好，虽然以聊天为主线，回忆穿插，但就在一个场景中表现出这么多复杂的感情，说明两个主演都非常了得。结尾也让人深感落寞，效果一流
對話與剪接交織出懸念及劇力，卻被「刻意感動」的高潮拉垮。
其实看这个片名就差不多知道影片的质量了。这个片子男性观众和女性观众看绝对是两种不同的理解和反应。男的会认为女主作，不成熟。女的会认为男主不负责，不认真。女方想要安全感，男方想牺牲双方的时间去赚取她想要的安全感，其实双方都没有错，多一份理解多一些沟通，也许就不会有那么多问题了。难免狗血，现实里边估计早就好就好散了。两星半。
莫非是桑迪纽顿睡克里斯派恩，所以说她“宝刀未老”？
