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)
女主表情特帅，结局和反派铐在一起沉入海底很有意思。
与第一部的关联，仅存少量场景保留，因此呼吸更轻松，影感灾难，沦为低趣味血腥暴片。与前作不同在于所谓好人坏人道德之间的视角切换，更是烂片理由之一，救赎是自淫思维，如果存在这类救赎，那么我先去杀人再去救人又有何妨？不存在洗白一说。
素丹上次綜藝駕駛露營車已經覺得很帥，今次飆車加動作場面，加多一星。
他是有什么勇气挂个2拍出来的，沦落为老套杀戮片，全程老头就哐哐哐一顿干，剧情简单的几乎可以忽略，从头到尾画面过暗，结尾居然还不死心的想要拍续集？
凑合7分吧，朴素丹动作戏演挺好的，就是这剧情太单薄了一毛钱的反转都没有
过于简洁以及短平快。像是只有两场打斗戏硬生生扩展成一个电影的体量，动作戏无功无过。史蒂芬朗的个人魅力硬撑全片。
为了这个人拍的这个电影
电闸室一躺，水洼听声辨位太牛比。作为续集算合格
除了前半段房子里的长镜头还不错有1的感觉，剩下部分变成动作片了，最后老头来一段赎罪
铃铛和烟雾弹很妙。本来可惜老爷子死了，彩蛋来看，还能活着有续集。
虽然第二部的剧本更加丰富，但是故事内容和第一部天差地远，不再是悬而未决，反倒是变成露骨的动作惊悚片了。
涟漪定位的小设计很不错，这部续集已经从禁闭杀人狂系的恐怖电影，变成杀神系的动作复仇片了
史蒂芬朗真是个好演员！气质上越来越向我钟爱的艾德哈里斯靠拢了！不过这电影嘛，感谢前作，近年感官剥夺类的惊悚片越来越多了，新鲜感没有了，只有那长镜头和波纹气功算两个亮点。
第二部成了没有新意的同犯罪分子的电影。还是希望第一部的bitch出来受死。千万不要有第三部了。不屏住呼吸好像完全没有问题。
反派命运注定悲惨
小女孩之不幸，被瞎老头捡来养，成天练习绝地生存毁童年，好不容易跟亲生爹娘相聚，结果进了毒贩子窝，她娘觊觎的小女孩的心脏，最后亲手弑父弑母。这童年阴影得多大！（2021-07-25 想看）
从猎杀者，到反抗的猎物，靠盲老汉的卖点，也到此为止了
心脏 拿来吧你 狗狗 拿来吧你 老兵不死 没想到会有第二部 第三部也指日可待
在整体的节奏还有质感上基本上延续了前作的特点，但是密室窒息的压迫感没了，导致惊悚程度大大降低，取而代之的是血腥程度爆表，整个一大反杀片。整个剧本也有比较胡来的地方吧，比如人物之间关系的建立也过于粗暴了，有点太直来直去了。但好在一些设计还是比较能看出想法的，躲避坏人的长镜头、光线的运用、水波的触感，最后烟雾制造“盲视觉”代入主角视角，小女孩通过弑父完成意识的觉醒，整体不及第一部，但还是给三星吧。另外，这可能是我看过最善变的狗子，难怪人们骂人都说是“狗腿子”哈哈。
