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)
全片最不意外的就是女主和摄影师必会上床，但明明可以有一百种收尾的方法导演选了个最烂最玄幻的，直接把前半段营造的氛围和高级感打破沦为三流悬疑片，逻辑难自洽。
也许鬼魂之说并不可怕 恐怖的其实是人在面对未知恐惧时所作出的疯狂之举 不可信 不可语 即使世界上没有真理存在 也请不要偏执 被任何狂热蒙了心神 即使是科学 即使是权力
疯？社会上谁是疯的可说不定，但真不是这些女人。 梅拉妮看着老了挺多，另个女主实在是很漂亮，俩人都很法式的瘦。看完了也没注意到蕾雅赛杜 1195
西德尼·斯维尼看起来有朱莉·德尔佩年轻时的影子，剧情推动的方式依然是“每个人的心中都住着一个贱人”，不过男主感觉不像是在好好说话的样子。
看似完美的复仇
据说不错。剧情还是有些假，女主颜值一般，胸不错
无聊的偷窥….. 两个男主的嗓音都好难听。
更多露肉和所谓反转版后窗，女主身材好，但脑回路非常不社会主义核心价值观，不行，另一边的男主让我给达响了，看过就算。
对面窗户里不单有男色还有金钱、地位与强大，女主多次嘴唇的特写和对于男友的存在视而不见（好自卑一男的，多次要求“im enough for u”好恶）都是对这三个东西的渴望。好几处全景都把环境处理地特别虚，是一种人眼的模拟？也预示了他们正在被窥视。
humanity cannot be tested
5.1/10 男女主被对面情色场面吸引开始窥视对窗，后女主发现渐渐爱上了对窗的男主。机缘巧合结识了对窗女主同情其丈夫经常出轨并匿名提醒对窗女主，谁料酿成自杀惨剧，男女主也因此分手，一天男主回来发现女主竟跑去对面与对窗男发生关系遂自杀。原来这一切都是对窗的阴谋，女主猜测是对窗两口子杀死其男友，于是报复对窗两口子，令二人失明无法再进行偷窥的勾当。剧情扯淡，逻辑不通
情色片的壳，惊悚片的肉，伦理片的核，97年的女主非常匹配这个角色，又人畜无害身材颜值又顶，整体光影氛围也都到位，片子想表达的东西不多，也基本表达到位了
现代预言。结尾反转，像是用“不合理”解释“不合理”，前半部分还是很好看的。
归咎于邻居的错
上帝视角之所以叫上帝视角就在于God doesn't interfere啊！
当你凝望深渊的时候，深渊也在凝望你。当你自以为是“上帝”的时候，你早已落入“上帝”的圈套。如果没有结局的“复仇”整体会更好。
偷窥别人的生活，然后慢慢上瘾，慢慢陷进去，真讨厌这个女主
The.Voyeurs.2021.1080p.WEB.H264-TIMECUT节奏偏慢
我偷窥了你的偷窥，并告诉你好奇心会害死猫。
最后的反转就感觉有点多余，刘承羽和张雨绮长得太像了吧，出戏了。
