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)
国内字母圈有电影里那么美好吗？女s能少谈钱，就很不错了。
前面四十分钟看得我差点坚持不下去。后面矛盾冲突展开以后好看了许多。导演处理情欲戏挺有想法，加一颗星，徐珠贤的脸，再加一颗星，这不就及格了嘛。披着性虐外皮的恋爱电影，其实更像是BDSM性向的科普片。
太养眼了真的 以后选人请按这个标准来好嘛？
三星：尺度不够，剧情也算拖沓，本来其实有机会演绎成一出女性上位时代的，可惜咯
对于这类“犬”子里的人 ，虽然不懂 但大受震撼
是清水了些，不过男女主演技还不错哦，而且还挺有cp感的，当个小清新爱情片看还可以。
比五十度啥那种脑残弱智片子好多了……前部分的情节设计得挺搞笑的
挺好看的呀 大家都是外表装的一本正经 果然长得好看的变态更迷人呢
原来走个擦边球啊以为是棒子的五十度灰，结果看了个爱情轻喜剧。想想十年前韩国还能拍《色即是空》那样作品如今这种就算不得了。看来小奶狗还是喜欢御姐范儿，倒是徐珠贤演的御姐谁又能抵挡得了？少女时代出道的都是女中豪杰！致情人节
另类童话故事。女主能够尽力尝试着踏入一个非同寻常的领域，用男主钟爱的方式为他修复心伤，这算是一种超能力了。被李濬荣的演技惊呆，那一脸溢满了被教训和虐待的快感真是绝了。
新手女S & 老手男M，意料之中的反差设定。圈内 / 外人的（轻）喜剧。 即便类型如此，坚守韩国传统——多愁善感+谈情说爱。换成任何一国，成片都会是另外一番模样。
既不唯美也不cult，不如隔壁365霸道黑总。
作者没有这类性癖是写不出来这样的故事的吧。
看似禁忌题材，本质上还是爱情轻喜剧。女主太好看了，人物性格也吸引人，换了我也会爱上她啊！
徐贤真是越来越漂亮了。初始带着好奇去看，以为男女团都能接分级片了，实际上镜头很清水，男女主是纯爱。不得不说男主还是牺牲了不少，我都快想不起来《模仿》里的高冷酷炫男了。
女主看了下就是个女团成员不是个电影演员 所以全片她给我的有感镜头就一个 但其实这样“毫无特点的死脸”也还挺符合角色选角的 如同男主选了个标准小奶狗一样
6/10。当韩剧看的，尺度比我期待中小，但比五十度灰带感。男演员选得很好，一脸“大姐姐请蹂躏我”的稚嫩感。还蛮开心有讲SM的偶像剧的，希望未来看到更多性癖展露。
挺另类的喜剧爱情片，男的小狗，女的酷，虽然看不懂BDSM，但是徐贤好看啊～
男女主的互动还是有CP感的，而且还讲了一些办公室的不公正待遇和职场性骚扰，已经算是好的了。就是节奏慢了点，搞得好像是个剧一样。
这就是韩国思密达低配版的五十度灰嘛，他们俩的事在公司被曝光后，就过上了没羞没臊的性福生活
