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)
开始诗音问悟美，你现在幸福吗，我还觉得很奇怪，但揭开后却是满满的感动，结局很浪漫
剧情套路，演技稀烂，情节莫名其妙，hulu就差把敷衍两字写在片头了😓
空脑小甜剧～watch you sleep那里真的甜到我了，想到了前cp（什么！）sasia，喜欢一些双向暗恋。喜欢满嘴跑火车的妈妈声音好甜腻，像放了致死量糖的甜甜圈，又想到了朱利安摩尔。副cp也好可爱！有些sm情节真的要笑死。全程：哇果然还是要用美好的高中恋爱来治愈千疮百孔的心捏（手舞足蹈
轻松打发时间的电影，欢迎来到全员啦啦宇宙……而且全员非白人那种……有点尬，不过整体基调比较小清新小可爱，也就不太反感
和《真心半解》之间差了十个《爱意，绽放》吧。
我是真的好奇夜光口交膜怎么用哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
色彩鲜艳，非常可爱。只不过你们的高中生活这么热烈奔放的吗，大庭广众之下激吻和开车。
（怎么可能会没有girl in red呢）
配角们和场景色调都可爱，只有女主又丑又无聊，晦气。
青春校园姬片，每个人都是双，直白得有些吓人（褒义）。青春真好，小美女们真好。
比较无聊，但是主角好看，友情和青( ･᷄ὢ･᷅ )亲情都很好
双关之王的画很有趣，画面和色彩很青春很🌈，故事普通甚至有点无聊。
超治愈的～
还有，咱下次能不搞迪士尼吗
真的不愿再看美国高中生在镁光灯下先害羞再吐露衷肠最后众人凝视下一吻解决所有问题的破烂桥段
好圆的月亮。在适当的时间开始恋爱，在开放多元的世界拥抱未来，纯情可爱的校园恋爱真的是宝中宝，喜欢一个人的时候会有慢镜头和彩绘背景，看这部也会跟着crush一下。
美国现在的青春校园片除了LGBTQ就没别的了吗？
小甜剧啦，剧情演技都不太行但是演员们都很可爱，queer movies 莫多莫多 plz
绝对是本人自企鹅公路后第二部满分电影
3.5星。如果少一点cheesy，少一点dramatic，观感会好很多，但总体还是很甜的轻松电影。相比之下，the half of it分寸感更好，更恰到好处
