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)
虽然不完美，但拍的带劲，拍的美，还是要给五星。这电影简直舔着中国人拍的。说辱华的歇歇吧，民族情绪过剩的建议996，007多加加班，多生孩子给国家多做实际的贡献，不比叽叽歪歪在这嘴炮强多了。
越来越讨厌这样天定而不讲逻辑的剧情
非常的，不太行。只有前三分之一是好看的（还要剔除回忆部分），所以这套班底，如果不拍漫威，不拍中国的部分，只拍美国的部分，变成尖峰时刻式的成龙功夫喜剧，估计能有7.5-8分。以及这个剧本也就比花木兰好一点点吧…尚气这个人物写得也太烂了。
3.5星。如果没有奥卡菲娜来负责搞笑，我觉得这就是个很普通的港片，如果没有王出现，我觉得这故事和漫威也没啥关系，中国元素我觉得都还好，竹林和飞龙什么的都还行。刘思慕没喜欢上，喜欢的是弗罗里安·穆特鲁。梁朝伟很棒，祝他在好莱坞事业更上一层楼。
中规中矩，把一集20分钟的内容拉成了一部一个多小时的电影，还有大量没那么好听的歌曲。但是图一乐是够了的，陪伴了这么多年的ip，愿多走几年。
This entertaining movie takes full effort to show what east-Asian could be in the west.
法拉的旁白其实也挺尴尬😓
把中华的大家之爱和小家之爱拍得还是太浅薄了些，口号主义。
可可爱爱的动画片，很有趣的汉堡店一家人，还能突然开口唱歌我是没想到的，就是笑话太冷了... ...
莫名奇妙的剧情，没了语境和BGM加成，两对人马聚成两个方阵，打群架前纷纷拉开架势的场面实在是太蠢了。
男主是个有缺陷病症的帅哥，多动症、阅读困难症，他的人生就是一直要证明自己，几次提到“超级英雄”。行了，你是闪电侠。
2.KT确实需要这样长相的演员去表演，换个美女绝对没有搞笑效果[笑cry]不把她当女人看！
这什么呀...漫威以后拍拍连续剧得了，给电影留点活路吧。除了梁朝伟能让人短暂停留注意力，剩下的每个镜头都能闻到迪士尼的铜臭味
第一次知道漫威世界里还有个华人英雄，看了也没什么感觉，和少年悬崖奇遇练就绝世神功啥的没啥区别。可能外国人看起来很有异国风情吧，就跟我们看瓦坎达黑豹很酷，估计东非的人民看着也觉得味道不正吧。不过这次他们找的演员，普通话都很好。一句话里英汉转换很地道，这点让人感动。之前的美剧里，找个说汉语的都是老外汉语。
就……kinda silly...all aspects
这不是洪家铁线圈拳吗？ 这怕不是对血债血偿有啥误解？而且你也不像你妈，外公的英语也不叫Waigong。。。除了特效一无是处。
还行，音乐很好听，人物个性十足，情节很弱智
越来越感觉华裔视角的中国元素和当代中国其实是没什么关系的，所以也不必太自作多情。当然漫威还是漫威，前面中间后面，仿佛三部不同的电影。
其实我也不知道尴尬在哪，但就像我一眼能认出这个男主不是个真正中国人一样，长期在另一种地缘下的文化样貌也是如此。另外：可能是我主观、片面，但后来偶然发现即便是之前说尚气选角的另一个人林路迪，一眼看着也不像，查了一下果然还是加拿大华裔。
六足四翼神兽帝江萌萌哒，可爱。
