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)
英国恶毒的老太太，印度讨人厌的小女孩，警察智勇双全，猎人有勇无谋
RRR是《水与火的故事吗》翻译过来，水火不相容，反抗与压迫；印度电影无歌不嗨，唱着歌、吹着风，自成套路；狱中“人都有资格努力，但不应该期待结果”；瞎几把拍着嗨，和中国版的战狼比更扯
下饭👍🏻印度战狼哈哈national allegory
剧情不错，特效不错，就是能不能不开挂。。。
一部為凱吉哥量身打造的迷影情懷作，褪去凱吉本身就是個簡單到不行的二流諜報片，但因為是凱吉主演、凱吉扮演自己，讓這部二流諜報片有了不凡的意義。影片滿載對凱吉的喜愛，那些凱吉90年代演過的經典大片，絕地任務、變臉、空中監獄，沒有一部漏掉提及。佩德羅帕斯卡的角色就是導演對自身身為凱吉粉的投射，裡面最多的致敬就是變臉吧，吳宇森在好萊塢的巔峰作...不能同意更多。近幾年為了還債演了這麼多B級作的凱吉，透過這部迎來了他演藝生涯中的迴光返照，他也透過本片的機會宣洩他這幾年累積已久的低潮情緒，但不變的依舊是他對電影的喜愛，年紀輕輕變拿下奧斯卡影帝，身為柯波拉家族的一員，他靠凱吉這個藝名自己闖出一片天，又因為破產而到處接片，如今透過這部片，凱吉似乎已準備好再次東山再起了。
极其注重仪式感，鼓吹英雄主义，而特效和歌舞，更是“秀得天花乱坠”。
我不理解
侏罗纪世界3烂成啥了不比这玩意香？
开挂这种事吧，一旦接受了，还是可以看得很欢乐的
无比诡异 有趣 可笑 壮观 五彩的印度主旋律电影
比港片还癫狂，比抗日神剧还不合逻辑，唯有欢乐的唱唱跳跳还是浓浓的咖喱味。
跟《北欧人》差不多是一根藤上两朵花，但是《北欧人》灭嗨，所以显得高级一点，三哥容易嗨过头，就比较逗乐。
有些虎头蛇尾。这么一孤胆英雄狗血黑帮故事套在凯奇本奇身上还真挺好笑。凯奇和他的黑帮迷弟gay里gay气也笑死。但第三幕主角光环的爆发也是编不下去了吧，编剧如果你也卷入了绑架案你就眨眨眼。总而言之，凯奇拍过的那么多烂片也算安息了吧。
偶尔看看印度开挂片挺有意思的，基本都有肌肉型男，还有美女，印度歌舞我也挺喜欢的
印度爱国主义影片，满屏都是印度味儿。虽然有点幼稚，有点狭隘，有点自吹自擂，但作为电影，还是可以看啦。
少见的印度反对英国残暴殖民军的革命故事，有国产抗日剧的风采。
燃!燃!燃!
fire，water，roar，水与火的咆哮之歌!
比港片还癫狂，比抗日神剧还不合逻辑，唯有欢乐的唱唱跳跳还是浓浓的咖喱味。
campy good和real damn good之间的界限彻底模糊且不重要了，数次拍大腿自己也分不清是因为太尬还是太燃。。。之前没去imax影院凑热闹可以计入观影生涯重大遗憾
