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)
1.“人都是带着梦想饿死的”😂 2.连葬礼都能让人笑着哭的天生喜剧人
温吞、甜腻、鸡汤化的电视剧质感，很不阿武了，过于规整和套路。想把阿武自述拿出来再翻一翻，多一星纯粹是因为柳乐优扮老年北野武的声线和神韵酷似本尊
我心目中目前2022年最佳日影诞生了！
不够喜剧也不够温情，也不够限制级。人物刻画方面徒有其外形，不甚走心。
2021M107/7.5 其实段子就是生活啊，让人哭着笑又笑着哭。时代的变迁是再有梦想的人也难以力挽狂澜的了，不要说放弃了梦想，明明是没有第二条路可走。年轻版北野武复刻的稍显刻意，着意于形态动作，到中后段抛弃了模仿反而更显神似，红色高跟鞋的默契让人泪奔。
师徒重聚那段很棒，最后的长镜头很棒
7.最后那个北野武上长镜头，着实令人印象深刻
生活才是最高的舞台，成为艺术家而不是表演艺术家。
6/10 很标准很日式，柳乐优弥确实有捕捉到北子爷的精髓，但仅限于表演的模仿。而且真的太煽情了，剥离开来之后甚至显得空洞。属于北野武的故事没多少北味，不是很满意
感觉生生把车祸年龄提前20年，天生抽搐症太抢戏了何必呢
要好好活着。
阿武电视台获奖回去看师父，一起在酒馆逗乐大家，瞬间泪目……
除开对于日本某些文化的不理解之外，电影讲的是传承与革新，个人觉得麻麻地
感觉北野武哪一段经历拿出来都比这有意思，拍得还是挺老套的师徒片。柳乐优弥为了学北野武的歪嘴说话估计也挺辛苦，但真的很出戏啊艹
浅草小子的前奏一响，简直是犯规。看了很多北野武写家族的故事，这一部的重点放在了师徒情，更加丰富立体，喜欢。
两位演员演的真好，所以师徒情也足够真切让人泪目，片中几处悬崖勒马的编排也非常克制而温柔，可惜最后一镜到底廉价煽情到底还是让人难为情了。
剪片累了，奖励自己一部电影。北野武那一嗓子在片名出时我就给跪了，这就是情怀狗的软肋，但整体拍的还是太简单了，没有说煽情不好，依旧是近期传记片的毛病：依靠真人真事盖过影像表达，至少在时代还原上也要达到《横道世之介》的水平吧，实在看腻了华丽复古风。另外中岛步的脸越看越眼熟，原来不就是《梅艳芳》里的后藤夕辉，师傅的脸也让我一直出戏，因为太像陈汉典了！
浅草小子，与其说是北野武，更是他的师傅浅草的深见。这部电影与其说是讲北野武的故事，不如说是讲深见千三郎。师徒情很感动啊！连最后的告别也要讲笑话，笑着流泪……北野武，是个重情义的人！
北野武不是车祸之后整容才左脸抽搐么，男主打小抽左脸让人跳戏，想问这部，北野武怎么看？ 难在他还活着，难在标志太过明显，难在制作水平被看个精光。
也太好哭了吧，以为是北野武的传记，没想到是他师父的。虽然有煽情的成分，但是真的好难过，师父这一生咋这么惨啊呜呜呜
