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)
私心加半星 一首长达三个小时的诗 这部里的希林好可爱 文学的赞歌也是柏林的侧写 过去的事情印透在现代的纸背上 细节很美 但也虚空
在抖音刷到这视频 看了一眼 就停不下来了 很燃也很感人
有人喜欢前半小时的灵光乍现 我喜欢最后一小时“后战争时代的混乱即将终结 我们将迎来更好的时代”
6.法比安找到失踪已久，自甘堕落的朋友，看着周围人荒诞无稽的样子，也许堕落的朋友才是真正清醒的人
很轻松的剧情，但是不无聊，看完让人更期待续集了！
从荒诞嘈杂的城市回到田园老家，听妈妈的话前往城市追求爱情。溺水后的湖面恢复了平静。
看到结局心脏骤停。迷乱、不安、躁动、未知，历史的点滴体现在日常生活里。
与《巴比伦柏林》相同的时代背景，展现了两次世界大战中场休息期间的德国众生相。主角的身份设定和故事线可谓极具讽刺性的潦倒落魄：空负博士学位而失业，一路向下的人生轨迹，以至救人反溺水的结尾都很难称为高光时刻。然而正是在这样不堪的表象下，对爱和美的追求才显得格外动人。
好摇滚，好性感。深以为爱情，真是不错。比崩坏浪漫。
这个结局也是真的没猜到。时代洪流背景下小人物的结局。
4：3画幅打开一幅30年代柏林风情画，上演一出“罗曼蒂克消亡史”，尊严煎熬下的法比安不愿意接受现实，又在想象的拯救和约会中死去，也许战争爆发前以这样的方式离开反倒是一种仁慈。
能在这个时代排出如此优秀的作品，德国是让人尊敬的，喜欢法比安远眺的眼神，最后在自己的理想中溺亡真的太悲哀了！总觉得魏玛共和国时期混乱的政治、萧条的经济、败坏的道德促使了纳粹的崛起，那个时代本该需要法比安的！
跟常规历史片的制式完全不同，晃动的手持加随性的变焦实现了纪实的质感，前半小时在形式跳转花了很多心思，不断介入的旁白又在不断制造间离。从头到尾都看不进去，感觉游戏的心态和厚重的主题之间始终没有达成和谐。#40th Istanbul Film Festival#
看开头以为和《Oh Boy》类似 没想到结尾找到意义的Fabian忽然就便当了 最近两年希林的几个角色让我竟然都忘了他便当小天使的往事……整部电影荒诞又真实 有点像如今被新冠笼罩了两年的世界
私心加半星 一首长达三个小时的诗 这部里的希林好可爱 文学的赞歌也是柏林的侧写 过去的事情印透在现代的纸背上 细节很美 但也虚空
在时代的洪流里，一个不合时宜的理想青年的宿命。经济萧条失业，好友死于玩笑，恋人永远等不到他了。结尾如鲠在喉，他什么都留不下来，好难过又好无力。可是就算活下来，难保《我们的父辈》不会重演，毕竟都是希林。PS：《巴比伦柏林》第四季到底啥时候上
常常忘记汤姆希林已经是个成熟男人了。最后一个半小时的剧情和前半小时的试听一样好 但中间就有让人焦躁不安的一小时。但我也太为这样的故事着迷了 哎。
这部分是tv里面蜘蛛山之战后的休整，日常生活。最印象深刻的当然就是善逸的种种惊人发言了！
充满浪漫的文学基调，最珍贵的东西存于世上已经需要付出代价：困苦、受创、不为时代所容。任何时代都一样，此刻也一样。
又开始了……TV最后几集合并起来了吗？这种剧场版有意义吗…
