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)
节奏太慢，人物有些动机过于离谱。不过演员的表演不错，很松弛。
奔着支持国产的目的看的，可惜无限循环这一类的题材不是我的菜。所以感觉不是很有意思。
从氛围到摄影再到配乐绝对是网大里非常亮眼的作品 编剧导演同一人 我觉得非常有才啊 这样的片子值得四星鼓励
说说电影之外，为什么国产的好电影都因为资金，时间的问题在被局限，好好想想这个问题吧
还不错挺有意思，但也确实不算新鲜，而且节奏掌控和故事张力一般。
总体还行。节奏稍微差点，都快三分之一了才出片名。
是有些沉闷单调，以至于我妈一直在旁边说没意思。
可以可以，大陆也能排出这样的片了。必须支持一下！如果我进入平行空间、真的是下不去手……
又是颅内幻想，整体剧情很明显的借鉴了恐怖游轮，平行空间的设定有一点点新意，一点点烧脑。好莱坞已经买下了版权，真是进口转出口。
一部小成本软科幻片。平行宇宙的概念，国内应该还是第一次拍把？剧情设定像《恐怖游轮》，但拍得更像是《彗星来的那一夜》。气氛营造的不错，但节奏有点慢。居然被好莱坞买了版权要翻拍？不愧是编剧雷神的电影，土猛土猛的。
剧本框架其实还是可以的，但是能看出来预算不多。
我本来以为前面 望远镜看到背影就直接说平行时空就够离谱了
在成都晴瑞看的点映，物料包做的挺不错的~电影海报有美恐的风格，全片三个演员撑起了全篇~冷色调也是在没有任何特效的情况下成功烘托出了该有的气氛~在不停的反转和空间中，揭露了人性的弱点~
100万已经用的很极致了，剧情基本是没有硬伤的，看完可以讨论的很多。除了演员某些部分的表演有些尴尬之外，还是非常不错的～支持我偶像雷神～
很棒的剧本、演员和取景，引发了很多哲学问题，想不清楚那种，如果是我也会做结尾一样的选择吧
女主是有原则，她本来下不了手的。但是另一个她说:我是有孩子的，故事从这里一切成定局了。
国内驾驭这种题材还是功力欠缺。只有设定，没有故事。
低配彗星来的那一夜了属于是，瑕疵很多，但毕竟是部小成本，整这样也不错了，也属于完成度很高的国产科幻电影了。。。不过我记得彗星来的那一夜也就一百万成本。
6.9/10
据说本片制作成本不超过100万，主要演员也就三个。很明显是借鉴了《彗星来的那一夜》，导演和编剧就是抖音上人气编剧雷神。从剧情设定来说，还是很不错的。核心内容就是主角燕子。误入了平行森林，希望能够回到原来的那个世界，但是可能再也回不去了。面对平行世界有一个同样的自己，该做出如何选择。过程是他打晕了其中一个自己并取而代之，并没有如他的丈夫一样痛下杀手。可以遇见那个被打晕了，自己也会进入另一个平行宇宙，做出类似的决定。有点新意，但又好像欠缺了点什么。毕竟还是一部模仿制作，和彗星来的那一夜还是有一定差距的。
