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)
前边铺垫太长了，视效一般，这种海上钻井平台灾难片和好莱坞之间能差出十个韩国的距离，技术小哥死的有点儿突兀，本来是帮忙的，最后成爱的奉献了，要不是女主的北欧初恋脸让人心疼，真的很难接受这个剧情。
6分，钻井平台灾难片确实没怎么见过，最恐怖的灾难不是发生事故后的人员伤亡，而是后续石油泄露，环境污染和可怕的多米诺骨牌效应，本来男友遇难，女主带着同事救人，差点就变成三人一起遇难，最终结局是一换一… 这样的救援意义到底是什么，哎
2022.3.28【撤离钻井平台】小制作也能张力十足
抓马，但是超好看，非常希望迪士尼可以做衍生剧的IP，交给《Pose》的团队就够了
动作场面不错，但是很少。
典型灾难片，复联团队制作特效，媲美好莱坞大片，多次克服困难反转获得新生！
万恶的资本家！
北欧灾难片，不过由于格局在那里，所以拍的观感一般，但是也不算难看。
合格的灾难片，基本全程无尿点，对挪威来说算超大制作了
巨型工业建筑让人印象深刻，水下蛇形机器人也很有创意，救援过程就比较好莱坞个人英雄主义了
他得多爱她，才会冒死陪她登上一个即将崩塌沉入深海的钻井平台去救她的男友……还有，最后居然看到了F-35
老婆救老公，最后三选一，让帮忙的人去死，这什么价值观？人渣两口子。
很无聊很俗套，很不喜欢这种分手了还搞破坏跟踪的戏码。
灾难在哪里，要不是我看完了，真怕错过那几秒灾难场景。
太扯了 仿佛说上世纪的剧情。亚马逊是躺平了嘛？

拍的什么玩意，槽点太多了，懒得说，浪费了一个半小时。好好养三文鱼吧，别拍电影了！
不想再看到jenny演这种失意的角色了，因为她真的真的很适合很会演……
直升机只管送不管接？好奇葩！女人又一次拯救了男人……
