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)
确实蜻蜓点水，但看到排除万难获得成功的故事还是会受到鼓舞
和后半段快意的虐杀
看完恐怖片系列88：屏住呼吸2.
编剧和导演希望塞些人性和宗教的东西在电影里，但他们擅长的只是气氛渲染。
就是喜欢看美国拍的这类电影，体育/真实事件改编/励志/热血
简直就是杀来杀去的血浆片，毫无逻辑毫无意义的故事。比第一部差很远，屏住呼吸的构思也只有在一开始房间里那段才得到传承，后面就是编剧一通瞎编。
这老头也太惨了吧？第一季已经很惨了，第二季还要碰到毒贩千里追踪女儿，小女孩演技还行，最后说她叫菲利克斯的悖论性挺有意思的。

6.3 连着看真感觉同质化严重，并且还倒退了，离开了陌生封闭空间后，惊悚感大打折扣
只想说，天下的女人一个德行，看那个作女的唧唧歪歪，只想璀她
豆瓣如果还是以前的豆瓣，小凤一定第一时间加入“父母皆祸害”小组。
合格的犯罪片，跟惊悚恐怖无关，除了音效，好在电影的节奏不算拖沓，基本是上来就开干。
第二部变成了盲人版的飓风营救的意思，进入剧情很快，但是为了发挥盲人的最大优势只能拍晚上的戏，可是灯光这么暗又是对主打动作场面的电影的极大限制，只能在致命一击的时候給大特写增强冲击力，其实可以按照盲侠一类的路数拍，如果按结尾那个意思还想拍的话，女反派演技很突出
第一集的单纯紧张刺激全无 强行续命感满满 in新宿toho
小女孩太飒了。虽然这一部变成了动作片，不再有那种屏住呼吸的惊悚感，但是如果不当作恐怖片来看的话比上一部要好看。
1.亲生爹娘制毒贩毒还抢心脏，养父杀人强奸不给自由，当孤儿很不错。2.老头子装瞎，能一个人摸到陌生旅馆的电闸。3.猫能报恩，狗也行啊！！4.你看，在美国自由最重要，最终小凤笑得好灿烂！Freedom
小演员不讨喜，好暗看的好辛苦，剧情一般，悬疑惊悚上很鸡肋，那么暗有啥子必要
还是延续了第一部的方式
所以时间顺序到底是在前还是在后？老头怎么会死？！迷迷糊糊
這片絕對值7.5分以上!!分數低得讓人髮指，續集不只拓展主角性格的深度和豐富度，連反派也強度大增看得過癮，女兒還秀了一把從小受訓的成果。不斷反轉的劇情和流暢節奏，絕無冷場！漣漪偵敵太酷！還有可愛汪星人串場，以及最後女兒的心態轉變，簡單又值得回味的爽片，夫復何求！戳臉那裏明明就很合理，誰知道割嘴巴要割多久，趕快救命才是唯一選擇！
