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)

7分，节奏缓慢，又隐忍克制，蛮屌的片子，故事概念...挺...环保的，还行，
依旧是影像盛宴，近年来瓦尔哈拉都快给电影演员占满时，艾格斯来了个莎剧
2022.4.22 bfi. 乏善可陈。甚至感觉是一部舞台剧。不少人物的表演停留在表面（个人感觉只有妮可基德曼表演得有血肉）。刚开始我在思考这是导演的原因还是演员的原因，尤其是开头扮演少年复仇王子的小演员，动作和表情真的是僵硬，机械化，像在表演一串串的指令，严重怀疑导演使用的是结果性指导。总体上相比很多年前看的惊艳的the vvitch, 感觉相差挺大，毫无新颖，略平淡无味。5

七美元一张票啊。。。俩人就是14刀。。。我看了个啥。。。
到底是哪个天才想出来的让Nicole演Alexander的妈…他俩吵架直接穿越到《大小谎言》去了。几场恐怖的戏拍得最精彩，史诗部分就太一般了。可惜了这么多好演员。
“我们在地狱之门见”
柯南伯格回归土酷的片子，维护“城里人真会玩”的主题几十年不动摇，可以说观看体验十分快乐了。虽然一帮人冷淡着聊些幼稚的科幻世界观有点炮打蚊子的感觉哈。另外斯图尔特在此片表现我觉得还不错呀，求别尬黑。柯南伯格之前还找过五方合作，怎么回事啊是故意组暮光cp吗
作者自我表达和作者自我沉迷是两个完全不同的事，我感觉导演明显分不太清楚。下次再有这么大笔钱，真的不如给我，我雇个导演拍闺蜜的北欧同人小说，保证比这个好看多了。@好莱坞
光是这个概念和执行力 就值四星 何况还有蕾姐和小K的美颜
召唤过去的阴影，丝线织成网，诺伦三女神掌控所有人的命运。（过去、现在和未来）
在艺术和哲学编织的场域里打开了一扇高度概念却又暗含具体性特质的窗，挺佩服柯南伯格站在前沿勇敢抛出的思考与可能性。
最喜欢开篇部分，对话中诗一样的台词，太新颖了，气势恢弘，加之史诗题材，气质拿捏太绝了，太有风骨了。但一到复仇一段，就变成了好莱坞式的沧桑史诗与意乱情迷，太可惜了。最喜欢的是那句，命运是写好的，无论如何不要恐惧。哪有什么蛊惑，自己选择的命运罢了。巫师的骂名就跟美人祸国一样，无能者的托辞。
视听质感棒，画面内容丰富，几处长镜头厉害，个别画面有设计感，北欧文化和传说加的也算贴切，但北欧的壳，英戏的核，剧情一般般是对艾格斯而言，缺少女巫的惊喜，也少灯塔的癫狂，其实有在消解主人公的正义性，但看起来还是文明了些

从我自己看过的三部柯南伯格来说，我觉得他说的都是工业环境对于人的欲望或者更准确的来说、对性欲的异变。我也是直到这一部才看出点他的意图。这一部里面我非常喜欢他刻画的虚无感。每个人物对于物质狂热爱恋，却对道德处于一个无所谓的状态；但物质又反过来紧固了他们的感受器官，需要更加强大的刺激和插入才能刺激到他们；结果在高潮过后，感受器官又再一次堕入到僵硬。以此陷入到循环，便是无尽的虚无。
Conan the Barbarian, Macbeth, Vinland Saga, Come and See, The Green Knight. 7/10, disappointed over all. 全片最大疑问，瓦尔基里为啥戴牙套？
