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)
「女性悬疑」确实不咋悬疑 虽然力求细腻但故事有点莫名其妙 首席教库管女孩跳舞 首席被害后女孩决定替她活下去 额😓 三次身份置换 感觉在故弄玄虚 陈年旧案的引入也是离奇又随意的 整个做得很虚
配色构图还行，剧本真还得打磨，故事太平了，悬念看了开头就猜的差不多了，伯尔斯通诡计真是被玩过太多遍了，一些地方的台词设计痕迹太重，不够自然，整体不推荐。
过于文艺的悬疑片，保证了感情共鸣，却欠缺了剧情铺展。
关于这场悬疑的背后，谁是林音，谁是严华，杀人动机破案思路都将淹没在时代的洪流之下。
画面比剧情好 但主创们的重点歪了 中国电影如果想学《杀人回忆》请先学习犯罪类型片的故事怎么写
氛围感节奏感都很棒，剧情其实也可以，可惜底牌太明.
影片故事有漏洞，画像的事也很假。不过对90年代的细节还原不错，好看程度也可以。总体三星半
画面氛围很好，剧情不算复杂，稍微有一个bug就是开头严华被烧毁的脸，竟然被画出来了，有些夸张，然后比如主任调戏严华故事线没有交待后续，队长与画像师互动感不强等，让剧情缺乏串联，到总体上来说真的不错，给四星！
影片瑕疵的部分是女一演技确实太不对味，这个问题在其被烧伤后表现得更突出——一个经历了这么多的女人言行举止却跟少女没区别。
节奏有点慢，片长太长。
-所谓远山，看下来原来是看山那三个步骤。
网大身份的电影，制作还是比较细腻的，整体结构、叙事方式都不错呀，结局符合预期。
从推理角度看，逻辑比较完整但也比较简单，基本上看前半部就能猜到结局。从审美的角度来看，取景构图，画面调色，服化道，都很不错，尤其几个连绵远山层叠的远镜头，非常的“远山淡影”，但感觉电影名字跟电影主题好像没啥关系。总之还是一部用心的，值得一看的国产悬疑推理剧。
看到片名的瞬间想起了石黑一雄1982年的同名小说《远山淡影》。小说也是一个关于自我欺骗与救赎的故事。远处模糊氤氲的山景混合着回忆将本片的氛围调整的刚刚好，严华对林音的憧憬和向往，让她可以成为她生命的延续，就像队长和画家也是一种继承。最后的芭蕾舞演出把从头到尾的氤氲全部擦去，泛出闪闪的光。这是我近期看过最好的电影。
超出预期的一部。女孩子之间的相互救赎永远能打动我，有一条弹幕说“林音是严华自卑人生中的美梦一场”，于是她决定放弃自己的人生，延续她的生命。最后一场舞，她们两个一起跳完。
导演审美很高，风景和光影拍出了中国水墨话风格。
山雾中揭开远山淡影，再慢慢在山野景色中落幕。
完成一件如此精美的作品。
咋说呢…镜头真的好生涩，感觉一下就能看出来导演没拍过多少片子，结果点开导演主页一看，果然是…有《杀人回忆》的滤镜，没有其内涵。如果单纯当作悬疑片来看也有点牵强，觉得人物在被剧本推着走，很机械的感觉。三颗星，全给那段舞。
剧情反转的还可以 虽然猜到了是这种反转 但处理的还挺好的
