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)
传记电影看起来尤其让人唏嘘，这女孩小时候多可爱多纯真，一心向善的人遇到鸡贼卷入人世间……我估计这届是影后吧。
整部电影都无不充填着传教者的伪善，但我在塔米菲的妈妈去世时妈妈归还的大衣和从妈妈遗体中摘下的眼镜时落泪了，这种悲伤一直延续到电影结束，甚至延绵自我写下这段话，全片最真切的情感莫过于母亲对女儿的爱和循循善诱
网络很差，断断续续的导致最后半小时的影片没有完成，但整部电影也有点拖拉。Tammy在同性恋问题上的发言还是很大胆的，他们夫妻俩以宗教之名所挣的钱就和寺庙收受捐款一样，自己也深信不疑。
最后反转太牵强了，明明被割喉流那么多血还能反杀
哈哈～怎么觉得加菲也还不错。可能在美国太出名了有些细节和过渡就默认不作交代了导致感觉浮皮潦草，劳模姐毁容演出是不错的，但是……私心希望她是以一个更个性的女性角色捧下小金人
其他无感。
也是因为Chastain表现过于出色，淡化了此片更深层的属性，借tammy faye的眼和口，探讨人与信仰的关系~一台永动机却不是福音机~真正让信仰在福音和诅咒的天平上向哪一端倾斜的，是人性~
剧情是简单，但也没那么差吧…劳模姐真的会演，说话和笑的细节把握的太好了，最后那段候场的时候特别打动我。塔米菲对上帝的无限投入，就如同劳模姐对演艺事业的热爱一样吧！
everybody wants to be loved
god loves you just the way you are救了多少人。剧情倒是无功无过，确实没有深挖，但这个妆加上演技，完完全全认不出我查了。so give her the award she deserves!
3.5 好久没看过剧情走向这么顺畅没有反转没有超自然也撑得住的惊悚片 视线 暗影 跟踪等本身就是可怕的题材屡试不爽
比较平庸。三星全部给劳模姐的表演，她真的值得一座奖杯
加菲的造型好可爱 像两坨发面馒头
3.5星。故事比较简单，但是气氛营造的真是好，每次变态出现的时候，我都一身鸡皮疙瘩。女主之前还演过<它在你身后>，是我非常喜欢的惊悚片，推荐下！
加菲的造型好可爱 像两坨发面馒头
拍出了女性的恐惧不安，植入到心底的恐惧。走夜路，回头再回头，张望又张望。谁在那里？想要做什么？这里有一个强壮的男人丈夫保护你，保护你什么？免受其他男人的骚扰？电影、超市跟踪尾行，不敢回头不敢直视，仿佛只要自己足够小心，就能避开危险。
作为知名的福音布道家，在公众面前传递的是宗教的向善之力，而私下里的诡诈丑陋却一样不少，不知这样的对照是否在讽刺西方宗教信仰的虚伪。片名取得也挺怪异，是想要借由女主鲜明浮夸的双眼来表达看穿人性的意义么？不过劳模姐毁容式的妆扮和近乎夸张的表演确实是本片难得的亮点，奥斯卡封后实至名归。
电视布道师庞大的信徒网络和财富帝国，蛮冷门的领域，无非也是人的起起落落和精神攫取。最后好像芮妮齐薇格的Judy，她们再回到舞台时会想些什么呢。
能把莫名其妙的一部传记变得能让人有能力不中途退出的看完，劳模姐的演技还是可以肯定，无奈剧本极其无聊，人物形象苍白如纸，简直让人不晓得塔米菲这个角色为何要被拍成传记，美国人民为何如此天真无邪。对宗教话题的探讨如同妆容一般看似精致细腻却空洞无物，没有灵魂（文本而言，老范霍文的圣母拿出来就是降维打击）
so weird，但好莱坞就吃这套。 @2022-03-28 18:50:29
