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)
而且还要共处 交流 分享同一个生活
I was happy,floating,staring at the stars.
作为一个资深“腹黑”，一直在等待阴谋论和大反转。在失望的同时，感受软科幻下的真诚。观影过程中很难不代入两方面的情感，是我会不会选择这种方式？看着自己被“自己”代替是何种感觉？发现“自己”是自己的替代品又是何种感受？那个一毛一样的自己真的是自己吗？可能每个人的选择和感受各不一样，但是影片里男主把这种情感诠释的很丰富。最后向孩子和妻子告别的一段既温馨又虐心，世事无常，人生短暂，何不把美好留给别人。作为苹果出品的影片，很难不让人联想到苹果公司想要推出的黑科技概念，而人间清醒的只有狗狗。四星半。
克隆人、面对死亡、身份困惑，都是老生常谈，不过这片好在放弃讲道理，把重点放在描述情绪，很感性，大量面部特写，配合音乐营造氛围，很适合在夜深人静时体会，一个人临终前回忆了自己所有难以言说的情感，看着另一个“自己”鸩占鹊巢，对家人的无私和嫉妒的自私交织，他的符号继续存在于社会，作为一个个体却被遗忘，这可能就是死亡的真相，不管留在身后的是什么都不是真实的“我”。
讲真，不要被烂片名和低豆瓣评分而蒙蔽双眼，用你的眼光去看它，再去评价它，它是一部好电影，是的，关于人生、生命的思考！
話說，同樣是複製黑人，李安的《雙子殺手》要是能加上本片的一些人性元素就不會那樣沒養分。
我曾为之哭泣，那是一曲天鹅绝响
不知道为什么这么多人给高分，一部家庭剧有什么好看的，披着科幻的幌子，演了一出家庭情感，带点克隆的我是不是我的伦理味，可是剧情和节奏非常之无聊，我要看的是黑镜，无尽，终点站，鹰眼等等这样的纯科幻惊悚片，这么一出家庭剧就不要凑科幻的热闹了，更何况这个题材已经有个低分美剧做过了，剧里克隆人甚至和主体还面谈，毫无科幻吸引力，家庭危机也根本没有剧情张力，垃圾，装逼文艺青年附庸风雅的伪文学爱好者的片子，不要看同志们！
节奏太慢了，部分场景很漂亮，故意设计了一个看似美满的结局。#20220203
越长大越多被迫面对病痛和死亡，越感受到造物之残酷。通向衰老的路径必然而不可逆，而这一切带来的只有悲伤。这必然发生且几乎百害而无一利的事，是写在我们基因里的宿命.....
DC终于打了一场翻身仗了，反英雄就该这么拍，之前的自杀小队1跟猛禽小队是什么残次品。配乐跟画面一样色彩斑斓，血浆也丝毫不吝啬。幸好操控的是老鼠，操控的如果是蟑螂真的当场去世…
一集黑镜的体量，拍成长片没有增加多少浸入感，只多出了一些或忧郁或沉默的镜头。
天呐，实在太过时了，不管是科幻概念还是镜头语言都应该是短片承载的量。APPLE+最近出品的片子或多或少都强调AI未来，这到底是何必呢
（阿里的演技 好牛！
会有天使替我爱你，是我精细设计的天使，最浪漫的谎言
Nature’s awesome. Great food.
Mario Kart D-bag. Nom nom. Ratatouille. Kaiju up in this shit.
很多人会被那种告别的哀伤和深沉的爱所共情，我反而一直在思考另外一个问题：两个一模一样的人（连最深层次的记忆都复制了），对于被复制的人而言，我会认可那是另一个我吗？对于复制人而言，我会感觉我是一种替代，还是一种重生？
我再也不想看任何口碑爆了的超英片了
直到逝去才知艰辛
