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)
最近莫名各种接触希腊，希腊的书希腊的电影。字母哥还是励志的，这片子也从一些角度展示了选秀的过程，挺好。
看完电影马上能理解为什么扬尼斯刚领到工资就打回家里，重情重义就是扬尼斯的家庭一直而来的教育方针，面对更有资源的球探，选择了曾经为他们卖命的菜鸟球探，这段剧情让我有点小感动。
瑞安是要被定型了么，虽然挺搞笑的，但看多了也审美疲劳。故事很好，但处理得太简陋了，也就前面搞笑可看，后面拼接有些刻意。
低配嘴炮版《双子杀手》，瑞安·雷诺兹已经成功陷入死侍的嘴炮角色无法自拔，一部部就像是在复制黏贴。拉上一众熟悉的演员，也不能弄出合格的剧本和人物，而作为科幻片，科幻成分低幼、打斗拙劣，又一部网飞捞快钱式的作品 @Netflix
全是套路，动作戏很面，结局拖沓，直白得不留想象空间。但笑点还是有的，作为爆米花电影，及格。
大家以后看到男主和导演的电影请直接绕道走，甭看！
本来字母哥的故事既有激情又跌宕起伏，但是怎么拍成这样了，感觉就像是天上掉馅饼似的，我仍然十分相信，他是通过经过了许多电影中没有拍出的磨砺才成为了今天的自己，所以很遗憾。
简单传统的科幻合家欢，故事特效也都在线，无需多求
祖母驳论的设定现在真的看不下去。。。。。。
字母哥的成长故事，当天赋+努力可以抹平并超越起跑线上的的差距，字母成为了王者。简单的为热爱而战与为生存而战没有可比性。
对levy表示失望，或者说对他之前的片子加了太多滤镜。原来电影可以拍得这么烦人
也许科幻不硬核，但感动常在。爸爸反复说出口的爱，泪目。ps时间穿越首先还是道德问题。
❷Don't look back, look up!（网飞内部梗？）
用一个虚无的故事包裹视觉引擎，Ryan以后怎么看自己这一段被市场裹挟，充当工具人的岁月
Netflix有时候就是会花大价钱来请一群豪华的卡司来演一部儿童向且无关痛痒的合家欢电影。
哪怕是合家欢电影看到这种烦人小男孩依然想打死
小贱贱在模式化演戏的道路上一去不复返，演什么都像死侍，演什么都口碑一般，就连“死侍系列”到第二集也没什么意思了，但是票房一直都可以，也就这么混着了。
时间论点好像太随意了而且没有悖论…就当爆米花电影看吧，顺便吐槽一下IGN评分，一个评游戏的评电影，好片评低分，烂片评高分，这部给了9分…跟着相反的来看估计就行了…
电影本身拍的十分一般，在插句题外话，这给字母歌捧的有点高了
并不注重于字母的个人成长，而是讲了一个家庭如何互相扶持成功的励志故事，怎么不让人爱呢
