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)
算个短片吧，但结构很紧凑，故事线也简单，功夫的展现很扎实，算是值得推荐的网络电影。
作为网大来说 水准已经是中上了 毕竟我们不是网飞
意外的好 可不明白为什么瞎子睡了两日却听不到酿酒女家被屠 按道理不是耳朵最灵敏的么？ 另外终于看到一部收音混音出彩的 这才是电影的质感 结尾稍稍有些故意为之 灯光要是更自然些就更牛X 预定今年最佳武侠片吧 打戏干净利落 人物也立得住 真的可以
3人不可踏入同一条河流两次，但绝对可以掉进类似的坑里无数次
我很喜欢洛阳相别时的那个场景，四两拨千斤，处理得很妙，但是整部影片却还是有“矫情”的老毛病，动作戏很赞，很不错。
武侠短篇，故事简单，打斗还可以，人物还是立不住
女演员让人出戏 哪怕样貌普通点甚至不好看一点都比这些整容网红脸要好得多得多
怪不得我喜欢 东北警察也是同一个导演编的！谢苗真的好帅啊
制作还行，特别是开场字幕非常酷有质感，鼓励一下，导演继续加油！
不过，导演应该借鉴了很多日本剑戟片的拍摄和叙事风格，所以有些地方会感觉怪怪的。但已经很值得鼓励了，现在顶着武侠的烂片烂剧真的太多了，这样脚踏实地的网大已经算是小小的清流了。
故事简单，但是讲得很用心！台词讲究，有深意！
3.一些影像的构图十分具有电影美感。反派弑兄时，通过幕布剪影展现了这画面，然后幕布破碎，反派恶狠狠而残忍的眼神出现了。
缺点：女性刻画和表演过于肤浅，台词做作，剧情有点低幼，打戏镜头切的太碎影响观感和动作分析
我愿意去电影院为之二刷！干干净净，流畅。视觉满分～似乎有致敬《英雄》《杀死比尔》的镜头。最后很美～屠魔者还天下以雪白，在叹息般的BGM中的瞎子却随着纷纷扬扬的大雪踉跄地伴着爱马没入黑暗。意境很美，很喜欢！
我觉得这片绝对是瞎猫碰上死耗子的类型，很多人肯定疑惑为啥这么俗套的剧本都有人拍，我估计从制作上也就是标准的网大水准，只不过因为动作干净利落，画面也不错，一对比，这片子分就起来了。
很久没有看过这么简单但是精彩的电影了，贪多嚼不烂，一个导演认真打磨一个故事真的很棒，大道至简。画面也很美，雪中杀人，酒➕火焰，剑法流畅，谢苗太帅了！李连杰来客串下那就太棒了！
打戏干净凌厉，画风质感十足，叙事短小精悍，这样比电影精良的网大，看后依旧回味无穷。
一般，但应该支持一下。
