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)
1）巧合实在太多
和《疯狂的石头》《疯狂的赛车》有相似的地方，尤其爆炸场面，《疯狂的赛车》中有相似的。
同名电影Knock Knock。饭桶外卖。反转再反转。贩卖儿童的人太可恨了，而且还是残疾儿童，没人性呢。我信钱，不信你。人为财死，一点没错，
虽然这是大多数不幸运中通过天赋与努力取得的胜利，但我们也依然不要放弃呀。分数更多是因为事件本身
要给五分，是很励志的。妈妈的不易，孩子的不易。
三星半。非线性结构的悬疑片。范伟演技没得说。窦骁算是个惊喜。
除了母子情深互为精神支柱，影片也表现了冠军光环背后普通人的辛酸苦辣。强烈推荐此片！
张继聪、梁仲恒、杨伟伦和胡子彤等演员，贡献了真实而又接地气的演技。
看的点映场。影片制作水准上乘，黑色幽默铺底、意外反转不断，惊喜之作！故事很精巧，在封闭空间内写故事本身就很难，为写原创故事的编剧龙也竖大拇指！范伟出色的表演为影片加分不少，想不到另外一个人来演会是什么样子。
7/10。剧本很多砂石，（例如阿伟细佬和方sir细妹的工具人角色）但三位主角表演加分，少年版阿伟比青年版更动人，虽然jimmy食两家茶礼，但还是想喊一句“香港，加油啊！”（戴定头盔讲埋中国加油！武汉加油！广州加油！…先）
正因为我起跑慢，所以才会拼命往前冲啊！
节奏、氛围还不错，只不过内核是个什么东西啊？似乎只是单纯为了氛围而特意营造的的一部电影... 及格还是有的吧...
另外，为什么要发明弹幕这种东西呢？有什么意义？除了恶心人以外。
要看粤语版。
感觉会好看，吴君如果然很适合温情电影，演技很好，但是剧本差一点
反转一个接着一个，巧合太多。不像疯狂的石头，好多梗倒是跟疯狂的赛车相似
虽然我还是看哭了，但不算特别好看，剧情过于平铺直叙和太多鸡汤式台词，吴君如的母爱也并不突出，和岁月神偷比真的有距离。不过估计金像奖入围是可以的，拿奖要看对手。最后一星给金jer的片尾曲，能在内地听到mirror的歌曲很感动。
处女作加星。超出预期，黑色幽默做得很好，悬疑性也不错。由几位主角的视角分别讲述一个密闭空间内发生的故事，最后由观众自己拼凑出一个自认为真相的真相。这样的片子虽已比较常见了但要做好还是不容易。逻辑、身份、时间、动机一个不合理就会推翻所有前因后果让影片索然无味。而本片在这些方面都没什么大的漏洞，加上范伟、张颂文、窦骁等演员的精彩表演让这场悬疑幽默的杀人闹剧好玩好看又好笑。结尾比较仓促，光明性的收尾回归平庸，让人唏嘘，何妨再大胆一点—让小马入警局再辩300回合再被收服又如何？
正常人与残疾人都一样有病，只是残疾人更明显一点。提醒：一定要看粤语版
小破房，迷你局，多方博弈，全员恶人，节外生枝，骗中再骗，通篇剥洋葱式扩大情报，配合范伟“欲言又止”式黑幽默，打造错综且略别扭的悬疑剧本，闹到最后不出所料回归人性。PS：新人导演表现尚可，格局不大，取巧制胜，点到即止，加一星是鼓励，慢慢磨炼吧。
